i think this is simply a case of 'a cuckoo in the nest' or one bad apple...rather than a mutiny, espionage m8. the remaining directors threatened to vote Noel White off the board after he confided (shot himself in the foot) in some of them. that suggests the measure of their integrity at least. Valencia was different.

I can understand the frustration to the start of the season but this isnt the pub, and internet forum or ex players working in the media.

Who would you like to see appointed to the Board of directors now that Noel White has left?

i think one of the problems is that Rafa's a victim of his own success, after winning cups in his first two seasons for once we all ACTUALLY believed we had a chance this year rather than our rose-tinted specs that we usually wear in previous years.
Then after the bad start everyone jumps on his back- as did many people on this forum. Hopefully we're following the pattern from last season where our first 8 games were awful then we slowly pulled it together to end the strongest of all sides. let's just hope that this year we go that one bit further and others drop a couple between now and then end of the season.
If there's a space on the board I don't mind doind the job if it helps us out!!
