NOBODY has taken control without best intentions at heart.
Some may have taken it on with too high ambitions, not accepting boro actual realistic status and chasing the dream.

Whilst hindsight is a wonderful thing, I can categorically say it was my view when it happened.
Immediately after StadiaSafe, Boro Leisure had no (or little) debt & owned an adequate ground.
However, the new club was just the same emperor just wearing different clothes. Same players, same manager, same ground, same colours, whilst name change (different debate), still the same "known by" name and had highest entry fee in the league.

One of the first things the new regime did was alienate the BISC, and dismissed the trust (seen as a fund raising organisation).
Surely then was the time for change. Supporter involved at board level, cheaper admission, free admission for kids to name a few.

Of course everyone loved the success, but with that came expectations that in reality could not be maintained.

I am convinced that with more reality and openness the success may not have came, (or not as quick) but most would understand.
Even when in National there was talk from the club of getting into the FL!!!!!


(to paraphrase) In effect boro ran before it could walk, and in doing so people in charge expected success in the Olympics.
