Quoted from Poojah


If history teaches us anything it’s that Town should never sign players from Welsh clubs. Chris Jones, Chris Llewelyn, Richard Hope, Touray Sisay. I actually quite liked Marc Goodfellow but even then I can’t ever forgive him for hitting the woodwork at Orient.

Are there any noteable exceptions?


Did Jolley (Christian, as opposed to the blasphemous Jolley) arrive from Newport? One for the fail list.

Can see Scannell, Gibson, Rose, Morais, Williams and Starbuck being told they have no future here and made available for transfer. Dont think the Cull has finished yet.

Quoted from mimma


In your business case the boss will know what is needed from any new recruit.  In football the directors do not have any knowledge of what makes a professional footballer and how to make teams play. They should leave the disisions to the manager, who is after all an ex professional footballer.


(1) they can check the person has the right character and mindset for the club. There was a lot of talk about culture and ethos. Not that Hurst isn’t aligned with that.
(2) it shows senior management give a damn and it sends a message
(3) there was talk about using whatsisname who does know about football to help Hurst
(4) it’s always good to be sure.
(5) it’s an opportunity for the player/employee to get a better sense of where they’re going to be working and who for.

In my job I got interviewed by a director 4 tiers above me, who doesn’t know anything about my job, not because of micromanagement but because they want to get the right person not just someone technically competent for the role. The company is very very successful.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Didn’t realise the Maccies in Kingston had such tiers of management. But they are very very successful.

Touché. I’ll treat you to a recent photo of Disco Des. Positive message, not sure why he had his shirt off though.
