Quoted from davmariner


Disagree, if JF had undertaken any due diligence as any football owner should, he’d have realised what Newell was like.


It was an open secret known to everybody baring J.F. it would appear.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

It is JF's duty to carry out out due diligence on future managers.  It is not the fans responsibility to do this.

If true, it is not right either that JF appointed Newell to pander to the fans' popular choice and/or he appoint him as he was a "known and experienced manager".  

The dire repercussions for not carrying out due diligence checks on all potential managers are still with us now.  Character checks should be the first port of call.  Anybody can talk a good fight.  Talk is cheap.

I agree checks should have been made 100% but they weren’t and everybody seemed happy at the time BUT never again should we find ourselves in that position.
