Unless I am mistaken the only actual limits of the fan ownership model are basically spending what you can afford to spend.

Correct.
Unfortunately for us the limits of what we can afford don’t seem to be enough for any further progression. We will have to accept that unless/until there is a change in our circumstances.

Barnes signed a three year contract with York in June so unlikely he will be let go without there being a decent fee involved. He is seen as one for the future and so I think still features in plans for York

What are the odds that the new manager at York will pull him back at end of his loan period leaving us back at square one?

I think that’ll have happened regardless.

I think its important that we get to the first round of the FA cup - this could save our season in terms of being able to bring in fresh legs. We need a striker with mobility to play with Nelson. I don't think it has to be someone huge, look at the striker Gloucester had, he was small in height, but was mobile. Hazel had a couple of big opportunities at the weekend and fluffed his lines. For me he is a backup striker.

I'd love to see it but can't see how it will happen.

I see that Wrexham's owners are bemoaning the cost of success with reported losses of £10million over the last 2 years. Ok we haven't been promoted but at least we remained in the black!

Is anyone going to actually be accountable for the decisions over the last year? I get most are volunteers, but that shouldn't hide the fact they have the power to make decisions, decisions that should be in the interests of shareholders aka fans. Which they are clearly getting wrong.

In dire form they hand AA a 2 year contract extension then dismiss him half a year later, does that mean we're still paying AA for the next 16 months or so? Money that's funded directly by fans. And now the dwindling income from lower gates down to lacklustre performances. They need to hold their hands up and admit their failures, DJ needs to take lead on that, he's the one steering the ship down the wrong route, into the rocks, ignoring the lighthouses and warning signs along the way.

What would you like their consequence to be? Genuinely?

We have the option to vote in board members and impact resolutions through the DFCSG. Who in turn vote and reflect the wishes of the clubs largest shareholder on the ultimate DFC board. There are annual elections to the DFCSG board of which you only need 2? nominations to be considered?

The board have held 2 fans forums in the last 4-6 weeks l. One with the board one with the Manager to try and be open and transparent and answer questions.

Aluns contract was signed in March? Which means it was negotiated in February. Not much time between him building and having a team perform well enough to take us top of the league. People would have been mouthing off had we got to the end of the season been in the playoffs and Alun nabbed on a free as we hadn't sorted his contract. I agree we should have parted ways at the end of last season. But in doing so this season we do not have to pay the remaining 16 months on his and Holloways contracts. This was confirmed at one of the forums. We have to pay a notice period as any other employer would.

To my memory DJ held his hands up during the forum and said he got the call on AA over the summer wrong. Anyone using hindsight to call out Gowling I don't think has ever been involved in and interview process on the employer side. Again its not to say people always get it right. But they interviewed. They picked their short list and then they picked the best candidate based on the process undertaken.

Again if you don't think they got it right, go back to para 2.

As you brought it up

How many were "shortlisted" and how many were actually "interviewed"

If you're interested, I believe the answer is in DJs interview post appointment where he discusses the process.
