The blame game

[Pedro de la Rosa]

I'm not sure what you're getting at?

Are you suggesting Morison compiled the names of the squad, signed them himself and just told Vinny how much he had to write the cheques for?

All this with Vinny and his utter dislike of managers pulling the wool over his eyes?

Yes, that is exactly what I’m saying. That is obviously what I think happens.

Alternatively Tan gave Morison and the recruitment team a budget to stick to, they signed players within that budget and Tan probably put his hand in his pocket to sign Robinson as we couldn’t get a striker over the line otherwise. Anyway, you clearly won’t change your mind so have a nice day.

What am I changing my mind about?

I said it is unfair to blame the manager every time when the board pick that manager and he is only one part of the recruitment process.

Surely the whole idea of a committee is that all participants offer their views. To then just sack the person that they employed and blame that person is unfair.
