2022/23 Kevin Thelwell

Interestingly, it would appear that Thelwell suggested Toure as a signing last summer, but the Chairman went for Maupay citing "Premier League experience" as a must. This is where it starts to get murky for me and laying all the blame at Thelwell's door becomes silly.

Where does this come from? If there is not evidence of this its just gossip. Resign if your job description is being undermined otherwise you're just happy to take the money.

Bobble's mate...



Take with as much salt as you like.

Thing is though, that isn't being "undermined" per se, it's the structure he signed up to. Until that structure above him changes, we will continue to have problems like this.

See I just can't really see this as being true (despite it sounding very Ev). If the heircarchy are so big on PL experience, rebuffing foreign strikers for Maupay, they'd never have shelled out £30m on Onana.

It can only be one strategy at the top or the other.

Dont take the job then. Far to many excuses for this fella taking the money. As ive stated before. Its an admin job. Call it what it is.
 
He nearly got us relegated due to his incompetence & should have had an agreement in place for a striker the moment the window opened.

If we are offering money that has been suggested for said players, then there is no excuse.

Should never had got the job in the first place, awful recruitment.
 
I'd have signed this guy on loan last Summer then triggered the option which was like £7m

Bill says he’s never heard of him. The end. You then get stick from people like you on an internet forum for being incompetent.
 

If there is any level of interference at all by DOF and owner, the DOF model will never work

I blame the owner and chairman, not anyone else. The responsibility goes to the top of the club, and their lack of backing for the manager this summer has been unacceptable.

Our only hope of salvaging what is left of this transfer window is to get immediate change at the top of the club through a takeover. That's what we urgently need but is our fanbase prepared to ask for it.

I can deffo believe this is happening at the club, the two bellends are not allowing any DoF to do their job.

PL experience is the biggest load of codswallop i hear.
If you're good enough you will succeed.

Clearly have no idea what you’re talking about. The money we’re offering includes very small upfront payment, which is why so little clubs are willing to do business.

Similar to Onana and Garner, we’re trying to pay minimal upfront payments and have many instalments to get around our shortcomings.
