It's a strange fact that in business, bad decisions come in sequences. I remember as a young lad in the civil engineering industry an agent was sacked. When anything was found to be wrong thereafter he was blamed. After a while the area manager said he'd clearly sacked the wrong guy as he appeared to be the only bloke who did anything.When a poor decison is made (and Harris was a 650k poor decision) it takes good management and a solid ownership to provide the capital guarantees to restructure and move on. We didn't have any of those things and so continued to make further bad decisons with the caveat that they could be blamed on the last one out of the door. As a result the 'story' post Caisley never really held water as the team on the field declined so markedly. I'll always hold the decision to employ and then repeatedly not sack SM was more significant but others don't and thats fair enough.
I don't want to see CC back as he's clearly a divisive figure but I don't believe Guilfoyle, Caisley, Coulby, plus Hetherington and the T and A are part of a conspiracy. It just doesn't add up.
