Congrats on a thread that has so far worked out largely as planned!
I can't say that I am not very worried. More worried than most closed seasons.
However, The departures so far, NC, MP and SRL have all had an air of inevitability about them, albeit the SRL one was one hell of a surprise which was dictated by the fact that the only club that SRL would have moved for made the bid.
I don't feel that there was much the board could have done about the departures thus far. As has been said many times already, the time to panic will be at the start of the season. Nothing new there. I panic at the start of every season! Until then, we just have to wait and see what the board does with matters that ARE totally under their control before we pass judgement.
