Manager rumours..

[blue lewj]

Does the owner of Brentford know more about football than Tan by any chance ?

I have no idea about his or her background but I can't imagine someone like Tan ever having the know-with-all to hire someone like Thomas Frank for starters ...... if that is the level to which the Brentford owner has had an influence on things.

You don't need to know football.

You need to take advice, employ the right people and give them money to carry out their work sufficiently.
Obviously there are constraints with regards to finances but you go out and get the best you can for the money at your disposal and you should see the best return on that.

Is paying Dalman and Choo wise money being spent?
Is giving Morison and Hudson and managers job and giving the former what little we had to build a new squad a good decision.

We all have our opinions but the owner knowing football isn't necessary. It is having the foresight to know the club needs football people in key positions.

interesting article on Brentfords structure.

Getting the right people in place certainly helps.

Who'd have thought it.

Who needs statistics and algorithms when you have the incisive business instincts of Vincent Tan.

............in all seriousness, it's articles like that that make me even more depressed about the rotter we are stuck with.

Tan would read that and just think to himself "It's probably because they play in red".

But that would mean running the club like a well structured business. We've never done that before

Frank Lampard sacked by Everton

He may be able to shine a bright beam of light on matters

Frank Lampard sacked by Everton

I both wouldn't want him here, nor do I think he would come here.

Tan wouldn't consider me.

I wouldn't stand aside while he made ridiculous decisions. A few others here might fit the bill though.

[Pedro de la Rosa]

Lamouchi and Ismael on the shortlist. Lamouchi's complete capitulation in 19-20 scares me.

Frank Lampard sacked by Everton

Please...no. He wouldn't come here anyway.

From the frying pan to the fire with the two most clueless owners around….he’d never come here

What's his uncle up to these days though? 😁

Hell no, he's shit, utter shit. Frankie boy will get another gig though, no question about it. He's still at the stage where he and the punters actually think that he has something to offer, so, way to good for us just yet. He'll get at least 6 hits of the bat before one of his mates in the media are forced to say that he isn't up to the job. Anyway, surely the Watford job will be along shortly.

Henry Winter said him getting Derby top half in his first season would be a good achievement. This was after he signed Tomori, Wilson and Mount on loan, and spent big money on Malone, Waghorn and Marriott to a side that finished 6th the season before…

Maybe we could get him in as Performance Manager?

joey Barton is a better manager than Lampard.

A straight swap.

[bluemoon]

id take lamps, but he wouldnt come here... he should have stayed at derby, look at derby now, he would be right at home here, no money, no ambition, shit owners... welcome home from home lamps

he should have put a lot more of a shift in the champ before moving on up

I’d have Joey Barton here if he wasn’t a reprehensible human being.
