Of course they do, look at who is on the Board and tell me that they aren't 100% Bulldogs.
Exactly, Rome wasn't built in a day.
Of course they do and they have revealed it, many times.
Which Board Members said that?
I don't see any "spiralling", what I see is controlled, planned and executed advancement, letting go of players that are not in our plans going forward (eg; Saddler), recruiting decent players to fill vacancies (eg; Stimson), taking advantages of situations when they arise to recruit quality players (eg; DWZ).
So the above doesn't get misconstrued, that's my opinion of the Board's actions, which has nothing to do whatsoever with how devastated I am by the on field performance.

You don't see any spiralling? Shit mate I don't know what you are watching but we definitely are not looking at the same picture here.
I know in time that things will change and results will come our way, it's a vicious cycle I know but by simply not acting now on what is most important other than the salary cap where we are seeing changes, not removing Pay immediately is ludicrous.
Our brand is being damaged here and to sit there and accept what is going on without taking any actions is only decreasing the value of the product the board is trying to sell. End result, membership numbers and attendances drop. Something no club in the NRL can afford. As the old saying goes, "it's a results driven business". We are not getting results. Heads must roll now!
Even the best sporting clubs in the world act swiftly when results aren't coming as expected. Take Manchester United in the EPL what they did to one of the most successful managers Jose Mourinho. BTW, he was contracted til end of 2020.
After starting the 2018–19 season with just seven wins in the first 17 Premier League games, leaving Manchester United 19 points behind the league leaders, Mourinho was sacked by the club on 18 December 2018.
And we can't sack Pay, why again?
