2024/25 Kevin Thelwell

Doubt he does. Moshiri seems to make the decisions on managers

Yes he has to protect his investment certainly so whilst interest may have wained recently because the money’s dried up, so he can’t indulge in his favourite past time of football manager, he won’t be completely disengaged. I just hope in Kenwright’s absence Thelwell becomes a major influencer with him.

Any new manager will be 100% on the new owners whoever that may be and how long that takes is anyone's guess.
Ideally for me dyche keeps us in the league his contract comes to an end and we can then move on with new owners choosing there manager at bmd

Do you know whether it’s in his job description to hire and fire managers?

No. But in properly functioning clubs yes the sporting director or DOF has that role. They appoint and they fire.

Look at you, multi-quoting like Zat. He will be so proud.

Decent squad you've built there Kev. 19 strikers, 45 midfielders and not a single full back.

Unforgivable

The most precious money we’ve probably ever had to spend and he buys a centre half that our manager rates below Keane with half of it.

I’m sorry but it’s not good enough. The DoF needs to work with the coach or he needs to sack him.

@Timbucktoo what was that about “a left back is not a priority because Myko never gets injured”

He didn’t appoint Dyche & didn’t want him. We know he’s offered him at least 8 players who he’s turned down. Dyche is the problem not Thelwell.

Not having this tbh. Buy players the coach wants or sack him. If you can’t do this then leave. Don’t sign players he doesn’t want.

It's scandalous mate. There's fans who actually defend how crap he is.

He's the DoF so this is how the chat goes -

"Hey Sean, I can get Jake O'Brien for 16m this summer, even though he went to Lyon for 2m the season before. Is this a priority position for you Sean?"


"Well Kev, I rate him but if you sign him or not, I'm going to play Keane regardless and chuck the first 4-5 games.

There's no way the pair of them are on the same page and I'm not surprised because

A) we have a no mark manager
B) we have a no mark DoF

I'd have far more respect for Thelwell if he came out and sacked Dyche by saying he's not doing his job with the players I'm signing

Myko has been carrying an injury for a while IMO

 

[Bob Elstone]

This plank spent money on Beto. Absolutely criminal watching him trying to control a ball against villa.

….£25m whilst Villa bought Duran for similar to what we paid for Chermiti.

Yup and whilst Dyche deserves credit for DCL seemingly getting past his injury problems (for now), can't ignore we have a group of players who are seemingly coming back too soon and breaking down again - Doucoure last season, Coleman since forever now and Myko over the past 6 months.
