No panic yet, we have our current CEO on a new long-term contract.. Our scouting network has improved, by the way We hope to get our new board in before our trip to Pune in September.. The market is crazy, executives currently want paying in line with other clubs in this league.. No panic. If only they could loan them in ..... then again Paul Senior and one or two others probably were ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this sounds daft, but do we really need a load of money going out on executives, each month, when we’re struggling to attract players because of financial matters?

Don't think there's much chance of new executives coming in. We're on the bare minimum on that front with 2 having tried to get by with 1 up until last season. We've less executives than a lot of Conference clubs. I think Waggott was referring to a re-shuffle in terms of the club's management so expect a couple of 'promotions' of existing staff to new positions etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't daft at all. Many organisations are weighed down by bloated management structures. The threadbare way we were being run was not the ideal model, but neither is a model where there are too many executives involved. I can't see that happening here with Venkys anyway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
