Something is drastically wrong within the Dandy Town camp that seriously needs to be exposed and eradicated. How can you explain a team who are league and cup champions now languishing near the bottom of the table and with a few wins? If this were any other club the Manager would be fired!!……but not at Dandy Town where favoritism, underhanded practices and the lack if integrity is rampant. There IS a qualified coach in the ranks whose team is UNDEFEATED for the past couple of seasons but he is refused the opportunity to take over the helm….so sad
