@Papillon. I read your pretty long post out of courtesy. I recognise the financial commitment RL has given this club and hold him in high regard for it. But this was not his first sports team to own so I don't think the fans venting on line will hurt his feelings.
The facts are we are slipping towards relegation and badly need a few players if we are to have a fighting chance of arresting our decline. If RL refuses at this point to invest again, he is negligent. To allow his club and investment sink now cannot make any sense. He needs to back his manager or sack him now and back a new one immediately. End of.
