I’ve seen suggestions on twitter from accounts I trust that IH is not happy with this.

I think his job has gradually disappeared since Ollie came, hence the reason I asked about it on the other thread.

Davis is Ollie’s preferred sounding board and coach, simple as that. A restructure.

I reckon there is more to it than they are letting on.
No matter what pathetic reasons they are coming up with, I think Limbrick has been offered a job elsewhere and will be employed again within the next couple of weeks. Someone will have got wind of it and that's helped the Board make their mind up to 'ease' him out.

This board makes me laugh as the other day there was a post asking about Limberick's role, what does he do, what decisions does he actually make and i think some even questioned if he was still with us as he was that quiet.
Now that hes gone, suddenly everyones up in arms.

Personally i see it as Ollie makes all the decisions and runs the club, Greg helps with the training and surely Ben Davies will chip in with his experiences. Ollie took in all the reserves games anyway and we seem to have a tight network of scouts that Ollie calls upon so what does/would Limberick do that isnt already covered. I'd sooner see that hole in the funds filled with further squad strengthening.

My thoughts exactly, Holloway wants to change the way the club is run, I would hazard yet another guess that at some point he will want ultimate control at board level too

Seen a couple of suggestions that his departure could be an opportunity to spend more on players but I assume the salary cap only applies to the playing staff and does not include managers, coaches etc., is that correct?

If so money will not be going towards getting better players but might get us some porter loos for when crowds return!!!

So the board said they require evidence of sufficient proof of funds that somebody can finally support the club in the event of a drastic downturn but yet it seems they can't support the club themselves...

I wonder If Fenty still takes the 250k out of the club every year

Nobody unless mentally unstable leaves a job because their wages are not what they expect unless they have another job to walk into. He's got a young family to support, so regardless of what you "supposedly" know, it's all a bit pie in the sky..good luck with your 11 plus btw.
