“I am disappointed, but moreso because there doesn’t seem to be any reason given for it, so it is really speculation at the moment. No one wants to see this lack of continuity in what the board is trying to do with the players.
“It is not helpful to change the coach or suspend him, or whatever, more regularly than he is with the team and certainly with no reason being given, it leaves too much in the air. (MK)
