Proudtobeblue&white Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Allowing Coco to buy Danny Murphy and Etuhu, on longer than necessary contracts and on those wages, thinking they would help secure promotion at the first attempt. Keeping Coco in situ, following the last day win at Wolves. Not sacking Coco at Christmas [Man Utd result aberration aside] the following season. Not sacking Coco at any point during his tenure. Appointing Coco at all Coco/Anderson/Agnew/Shaw/Singh/Existing at all/thinking they could run a football club/lack of communication with the fans/treating us with contempt/lies...could be here all day!

OJRovers Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Listening to Jermone Anderson ahead of John Williams is the crux of everything that has gone wrong since they took over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onlyonejackwalker Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Coco, Black, Berg, Bowyer, Appleton, Bowyer. Has there ever been a series of such baffling and crazily expensive management decisions in professional football before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 The Kean payrise/new contract when we were declining fast was an act of (JA) genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucksrover Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Listening to Jermone Anderson ahead of John Williams is the crux of everything that has gone wrong since they took over. I would agree this was the key mistake. I sometimes think some representative of our club should be able to take legal action against Anderson and Co. for professional negligence or something like that.

Amo Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Technically, the Trust have to take the blame for JA, as much as Venky's. They're the ones who hired him to find a buyer, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speeeeeeedie Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Their Brazilian chicken executive who was supposed to unearth South American gems? What a joke decision that was. Was he called De Souza? Not Venkys, but what about Allardyce bringing in Kean as a coach? I wonder what would have happened if he'd have hired somebody else.

Not Venkys, but what about Allardyce bringing in Kean as a coach? I wonder what would have happened if he'd have hired somebody else. That's an interesting scenario. With Kean's feet already under the table, it was too convenient for JA to fool Venky's into thinking he was some kind of visionary coach who Rovers had to thank for bringing through the likes of Jones et al. I guess they would've installed an out of work SEM client, but no one springs to mind right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J*B Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Someone needs to actual put together a serious date ordered timeline of events.
