How can anybody be hands on with a signing as part of the recruitment team and then point fingers at the manager when it goes wrong? Team decision when deciding to sign the player but one person being the fall guy when it turns to s***? It is laughable.
Tan, Dalman and Choo pick the managers. Tan, Dalman and Choo sit down with the manager and agree on the signing of players before releasing the funds.
If the signing is a success then they bask in the praise. If it fails then throw the manager under the bus for that signing while usually in the process of sacking him. Then repeat.
The recruitment team are either top level professionals in charge of a football club and very competent or a bit wet behind the ears and naive people who get caught out by the dark and sneaky side of football. Sadly for the fans our board choose their position at any point on that scale dependant on how things look at the time.
dml is comedy gold on here of late. "I've got family in Sheffield who know...." 😄 Stan Butler can't even rescue him if he keeps on like this.
