Two very good dofs gone sharpish, Pushing your experienced recruitment scouts to minor duties over a newbie. Having final say on all transfers then coming out with psr spiel after spending a fuckload on ill fitting players for your system. Having to get rid of minteh and Anderson after another psr debacle under his tenure. 😂 Last sentence is a bit harsh in my humble opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think anyone is saying he doesn’t know the price. It cannot reasonably be said that it is any manager’s job to account for financial implications in modern football. This is where Eales and PIF have gotten off easy and where Eddie should not be taking the brunt of the blame. And if you’re blaming Eddie for Minteh and Anderson then you clearly aren’t trying to argue anything in good faith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The length of time someone has been in a job doesn’t make it not nepotism, surely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 (edited) It suggests Howe would put Andy in an important role over someone who is apparently much better than him, because they're related. He could just trust Andy because they've worked together for over a decade. It's no different than him being insistent on Tindall being his assistant.

Andy Howe has last summer and I've got no idea what else. Nickson has an exceptional track record for finding talent.

Hanshithispantz Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Andy's been on Howe's scouting team for over a decade, they have an exceptional record together. The summer transfer window was bad but it doesn't remove the good work he did before it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezertron Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Sorry man, I’m just pissing about online. Honestly, I would much prefer someone not related to the manager being high up in recruitment. I think it causes issues. but I don’t care that much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The summer transfer window was bad but it doesn't remove the good work he did before it. Recruitment and wasting money is a big part of what got Bournemouth relegated. He had control then. At first here, there were multiple voices, last summer was the first where it was Eddie with the major say. And those are Eddie type signings historically. So I don’t know that Andy Howe is a good scout. I know we don’t have enough top class scouts or first team coaches for that matter. Clearly new ideas are needed.
