It's vital that we give secretive billionaires the benefit of the doubt we never gave that blustering yank.
Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
I really don’t know, although Matt pouring praise on Luton made me feel queasy.
But we as the fans he left behind have to move on as well.

Fwiw I don't doubt that things might have got toxic behind the scenes, but that's professional football sometimes - unfortunately.

I didn't know him.... but rest in peace mate.
With everyone losing their heads over the loss of Bloomfield.....
This is a real loss...
A timely reminder that football is just a game and the loss of a manager in the great scheme of things is pretty trivial

Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
Careful.That's dangerously close to saying Matt threw his toys out of the pram when he didn't get what he wanted. Which might well be true BUT CAN NEVER BE SAID BECAUSE HE IS MR WYCOMBE.
Re: Aaron Morley
That was a serious question. The group (players/fans) are sometimes described as feeling like family. I was raising my hopes that he was happy to be back as part of the Wycombe family.
it’s been a tough old day.

They'll live or die based on how our performance goes from here.
Miss the playoffs and it'll look like an absolute disasterclass.
Storm to promotion and it'll look a lot rosier.

Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
I wonder whether part of the problem was that Matt was here as a player when Ainsworth was lord of all he surveyed, with complete control over transfers, off-field matters, choice of curtains / goal nets... Of course anyone taking over would want and hope for similar levels of control over all affairs. The major difference is that Ainsworth had to bring in his own curtains and goal nets, whereas Matt is operating in a structure where the ownership must have invested north of £5m this season (probably closer to £10m) on wages, transfers, building works, training grounds etc. It stands to reason they would demand more control than the Trust could or Couhig should. And it's a matter of human nature that Matt might resist that, wanting the leeway his predecessor had. If he's now found a club in Luton that will give him that, or at least meet him half way, then good for him. But I don't think Dan Rice et al deserve criticism for wanting more control of off-field aspects than previous regimes might have.
