I don't think you need an inside line to know that, though. We've lost Burrows, Lasley & Hammell who were at the core of the club for decades and haven't replaced 2/3 of them. We then appointed Derek Weir as the interim while we searched for a new CEO but have not managed to find anyone. He clearly doesn't want the job longer than he absolutely has to so we're unlikely to have any sort of long term plan.
Kettlewell was clearly given the instruction over the summer to trim our massively bloated squad back, which he done successfully. What we're left with is a squad that is paper thin and a lot of our summer signings are proving to be questionable. We signed a left back who has an injury record as long as your arm and, shockingly, he's out long term now. We have no other left backs around so we're pissing about sticking right backs over there who look massively uncomfortable. We had our whole midfield operation pinned around a 17 year old and now he's out we are unable to hold onto the ball. The solution? Stick a striker in at centre mid where, shockingly, he was all over the place last night.
Like I said earlier I'm not even that arsed about binning Kettlewell because we're going to end up in the same place very quickly, imo.
