But is the best we could hope for in these circumstances &#8211;  let&#8217;s hope he&#8217;s the brains behind the Danny Rohl operation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Andy &#8211; <\/b>I wish him all the best but he is on a hiding to nothing.  With everything that is going on at the club there is no hope at all.  We can&#8217;t recruit players, we can&#8217;t keep our players and we can&#8217;t pay them &#8211; what chance does he have of success?<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Adam &#8211; <\/b>Good luck to Henrik. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s a bit like giving the new captain of the Titanic a teaspoon to help with the rising water.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Jon &#8211; <\/b>Got to admire the man for taking on an impossible job, but he must be crazy! Possibly exactly what we need.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Brian &#8211; <\/b>Will there be much of a club left to manage? I can&#8217;t help but think that unless something major changes and changes soon that there won&#8217;t be.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Paul &#8211; <\/b>We have got to give him a chance and get behind what&#8217;s left of the team.
