“From my time working with Nick, he’s a really nice guy, good guy, terrific guy, who spent a lot of time building things up, in terms of the recruitment side. He put processes in place and brought in people in positions that the club needed filling. And then the process over the last year has got underway now.

 

“The work still goes on behind the scenes. Nick has had a big impact in putting a lot of groundwork into the process and certain things, and where we are looking and how we find players. Hopefully that comes to fruition in time, in terms of the process producing more and more of the players we are looking for.

 

 

Bit of speculation on my end, but get a feeling the highlighted are the key things we are looking for consultancy on.

Won't claim to know a single thing about him so I'm not going to happy or sad until we see results, or a lack thereof.

 

At least we're looking to get football men in with the relevant experience, rather than just snapping up ex-players and managers they met in the pub or casino. Hopefully. :lol:

This doesn’t make much sense imo. When we hire an actual DOF he will have his own ideas and positions he wants filling.

Accept relegation. :lol: Howeh, there's cutting the owners some slack and then there's that. You don't go into a January transfer window 3 points from safety holding the FM cheat code and the mindset of accepting relegation

 

 

 


 

We don’t know if we hold the FM cheat code yet though for sure.

 

PIF may be super rich but we don’t know how much of that they are giving to us. We’ll know a bit more after January.

I'd be lying if I said I knew anything about him and he seems to get mixed reviews from Celtic fans. Not too dissimilar to Emalano and  Chelsea fans opinions of him.

 

It can only be a good thing that we're bringing in someone with a wealth of experience in football, especially as he needs to hit the ground running. It could be temporary because we have someone lined up for the summer or perhaps they want to see what division we're in before formulating a plan.

I'll be surprised if we go in to the window only 3 points off.

WBA fans aren't fans either it seems. He hired Pardew and broke WBA's transfer record (£15m) for Oliver Burke.

 

Haven't really read much anything that suggests this is anything other than a weak appointment tbh. 


I agree it’s underwhelming if it was a permanent appointment.

 

Luckily it’s not and maybe he’s the only one that would come for a short term gig. If nothing else, he’s a bit extra help for Amanda and Mehrdad.

In his defence, Burke looked a cracking signing at the time. I remember being jealous of that one.
