Interesting comments from JS

Quoted from 141325

More questions need to be answered on recruitment.

Too many assumptions on it sitting when PH when it seems more collaborative. SP was attending games and scouting too.

Recent JS in Guardian said - Although the head coach has an outsized influence day to day, responsibility for the team’s performance is shared by the board and CEO, who should establish and define the overall strategy.

I should imagine, in hindsight, that he hadn't said that.

Perhaps DC did the recruiting?

Exactly who was accountable and what role did each play

Too many assumptions around on it being PH

We need to go back to relying on the mark 1 eyeball.

I thought it was interesting and ironic. In that, we had all the success he alluded to last season and then data lead decisions have led to the position the team is in, lack of team spirit and bonding etc.

As pointed out before he and AP are both naive in the football industry and still have a lot to learn. I am thankful for them buying the club and supportive of them. I think once they crack the football business we'll be okay, but until then it will be a rough sea.

Debbie’s fault then.. Good job she jumped.

Quoted from GrimPol

That's interesting, you think  " his business philosophy and football financing in general" has no bearing on "football and Grimsby Town". What, we are run differently to a major shareholders philosophy?
Can you expand, just for interest's sake?

the podcast is about business, and different people's approach to business. it also touches on their business beliefs, philosophies and their comments on business matters of the day.
The podcaster isn't really interested in Grimsby Town per se, or what happens on the pitch.

If you listen to it there are quite long sections on a) his upbringing and history (which you will already have heard, but the rest of the audience probably wouldn't know) b) the difference between venture capitalists and private equity and how that plays out in football c) the football regulator d) the capacity for football clubs to play a role in levelling up e) an interesting section on the Jim Ratcliffe/moan U deal f) data and how it should be used generally and in football specifically g) the Wrexham situation/model and how that plays out
As you can see GTFC is not at all central to the discussion.

PS I don't understand why some seem to think that JS has to devote every waking hour to our on field malaise. He is capable, and is allowed, to use his time on other things

There’s a minority who’ve been absolutely gagging to find a stick to beat him with. We all know who they are. And they’ve been parroting the same tired shite for months now. First sign of a crisis and they’re loving it.

Red Cross away, couldn’t give a shít.

Some question need to asked towards JH

When data and other characteristics differed which one was weighted higher???

No one wants a crisis. I'd rather we won every game but when owners make a decision based on their philosophy and the consequences are pretty poor, I don't see how it can go unquestioned.
