If you think a 32 year old analyst, or a someone with u15s level academy coaching experience is a huge step up on Jordan, then that’s up to you!

 

It's about the level of experience running backroom operations at a professional football club.

Personally I don't care either way.

I’ve said it multiple times, and in the main post - if you’ve an ambitious owner who hires expertise, you don’t end up with a black hole throughout the transfer window and then take a punt on someone without experience.

 

That said, like a few others probably feel - I like to a certain extent the potential appointment based on his previous exemplary service, and his potential knowledge / links in the game.

I find it so hard to understand why there can’t be nuance sometimes.

Real pro, you hypocritical twat

Out of OUR club.  NOW and an apology before you leave.  If what I have read is even remotely true, shameful.

Ismeal 'Jordan I'd like to take out a loan...for a player'

Rhodes 'do you have any collateral?'

Ismeal 'sorry my director Has left my team desolate, he's sold off all my collateral, I'm destitute'.

Rhodes 'then no'

I also wonder who would sit if Tronstad got injured. The others all seem similar types.

 

I have a feeling of dread that the answer to that question is Forshaw (when/if he is fit)

Baradji, Tavares, TGH, & Montgomery all look more like box to box options to me

Says that Eustace didn’t leave for family reasons. Maybe the inflatable snakes for the anniversary game may be popped
