A discussion on Talk Sport on Wednesday morning with Alan Brazil has started rumours and talk about City's current Board of Directors.

Brazil questioned whether they would still be in place next season if City get relegated, prompting some to call for the City board's heads.

Many City fans think that the board should go into the red and borrow money to buy players now to try and keep us up, or at least to get us straight back up next season. The Board have been clear that they are not willing to do this. (Quite frankly, FFS doubts whether tha bank would lend us much, or whether any bugger would want to sign for us even if we had the money)

The board were more than generous last season, letting Taylor have well over £20m to spend. We'd have whinged if they hadn't. Now we whinge that they did.

Teams such as F$£%&*$ and Cov tried the route of borrowing, buying and continuing to pay high wages...and if you don't bounce straight back to the Premiership it can result in financial ruin, especially as City have the extra burden of thr new stadium to pay for next season.

John Elsom has said previously that he must take the blame for not sacking Taylor earlier, and there are fears that he may do the "decent" thing and resign. Would that really be in the best interest of the club long term?

FFS doesn't think so. We need stability in the boardroom from directors that care about the club, such as John. We don't need to have a destabilised board so that the Kinchs and the Pierpoints of the world see an opening to get back in.

The current board have got us a new stadium (more than the last lot could deliver), and have backed managers and ran the club profitably. They treat the fans well and are City fans at heart. We could do a whole lot worse...
