On the phone in?
Why specifically Knight?
I suspect there are others with just as much to blame, if not more.
If he had any balls left he would get out in the middle at half time and explain some of his decisions this seasons.
That would not happen the only possibility of seeing him on the pitch at half time would have been had we won at Luton.

For fucks sake guys, this is not Bill Archer we are on about.
It seems that I'm becoming a Dick Knight apologist. ( for which. I don't apologise )
Dick has nothing to answer to, and doesn't deserve the crap he seems to be getting on here.
What he has done for OUR football club is save it from possible oblivion, put in god only knows how many years work on Falmer , for a stadium that some of us may not appreciate until years to come.
I was at Hereford 13 years ago when we did the great escape, and when he ran on the pitch afterwards to our end, his jubilation was exactly the same as all of us.
He is a true, true, true supporter of our football club, so cut him some slack.
Its always comparing with Archer that justifies Knight's f*** up though isnt it, which is just plain ridiculous. It's like comparing every German leader with Hitler and saying that although they might f*** up they could be worse.
Yes Knight is better than Archer, so what. Try comparing him to Bamber. Bamber was a fantastic chairman who gave us the best times this club has had, but in the end he stuck around a little too long, left us with player wages through the ceiling and ultimately starter the downward spiral we are still in. Good leaders realise when their time is up and step down. bad leaders cling on to power forever and end up losing all the respect they once had. I fear Dick Knight is edging towards the latter.
We don't have to compare him with Mike Bamber, because that's not the issue.
I am comparing him with the previous chairman, that is all.
And for that oh Giraffe with the long legs, I stand.

Yes but Archer was an evil bastard out for his own gain. Surely to judge a football chairman properly you need to judge him against someone similar? I have no doubt of Knight's intentions, none at all. I do however, sadly, believe he is past it.

No. Under Bill Archer we almost made it to the top division (I believe, though may be wrong, that would have been the premiership's first year). Whereas the highest we've got under Knight is just outside the relegation zone of the second tier.
