I think some people need a figure to blame. With Rodders and our fantastic former management team gone, Mrs Trew is next in line. That said, I sympathise with many points on this thread.

 

The way our transfer targets remained the same remained the same over several managers (I'm thinking Showunmi) indicates to me that Jim Rodwell had a big part to play in our transfer policy. I'm happy to be corrected, but I don't actually think this is unusual at football clubs any more. When it's the norm to have a new manager ever year to 18 months, you don't give that man total control of the budget. Of course, Mrs Trew doesn't have the experience in football that Rodwell had, meaning that it makes sense to spread some of his old responsibilities, such as rubber-stamping transfers.

Honestly, why all the bad press? I cant see what she has done wrong.

I think a lot of the criticism is summed up in the below points:

- Sacking managers at wrong times.

- Hiring rubbish managers.

- Trigger finger

- We (Fans) expect too much because of Munto (Despite her husband more recently saying things such as 'push for the Championship, 3/5 year plan' etc...

- Ray Trew blaming/criticising fans (Or the amount of fans) turning up, despite the fact under his reign we see quite a big downfall in attendance(coincidence?) 

- The board is made up of two members, husband and wife.

- Trew's having any influence over who the club signs, apart from budget setting. 

It's been there a while, I think the relegation has just highlighted it.
