As mere supporters I don't really think we're "entitled" to know anything at all.
It's good PR to keep supporters informed, but the success of the club is almost entirely dependent upon what happens on the pitch.
I have no idea whether or not RM is a 100% genuine person. I've never met or spoken to him.
He does, in my opinion, tell far more than he should. Lots of people will not fully understand the finer points and workings of the company and for them it is wasted.
Some will seek to read between the lines of whatever he says and make issues of what he doesn't say.
Some just won't believe him, will send an aggressively worded question and then wonder why he doesn't/won't answer.
The ones who appreciate it are probably converts anyway.
In any event, I'd rather have someone like him who at least does divulge the ins and outs rather than a Chairman who just gives the fans the mushroom treatment.
But he'd do well to remember the saying "Never explain; your friends don't need it and your enemies won't believe you anyway."
The latest communique from the club is short and to the point but is probably missing a few words at the end, something like "Now f*** off and stop worrying you bunch of doommongers".
It's what he didn't say there that for me spoke volumes.
