@ronnieronalde you say SR has been an expensive disaster but cannot really say I agree. 

What he did in the direct aftermath of the NC sacking was appointed someone that reinvigorated DCFC after a massive period of stagnation (and you are well aware that is not something that I am holding against NC).

That 13/14 season was what led to MM investing in, and eventually taking over, DCFC.

Now MM may have some money missing from his pockets but, as a club, DCFC are in a much financially healthy position because of MMs decision to invest.

On the pitch we find ourselves in pretty much the same position as when NC left.

The iPro naming, not really sure what to make of that. Money for old rope really so not too sure why he is being called out on that.

What I will agree with is the way we have conducted our business. While others have lauded him with praise 'Sam always gets his man' type comments, I will admit the reports coming out have put us in a really bad light. At the end of the day though money talks in this business and I can't see any clubs refusing to do business with us.

I know there's no smoke without fire but it's hard to pin anything on Rush when none of us have the slightest clue what his day to day role entails.

Reading very much between the lines here but looking at that very brief statement it's fairly clear Mel has something on him otherwise it would surely have been the standard "mutual consent".

It's going to be interesting to see Sam's response to all of this.

"...gross misconduct and breach of fiduciary duty".

Implies he's being doing deals prioritising his own benefit than the benefit of the club?
