We need to get a DOF in as soon as possible tbh. My source is impeccable and they reckon Howe prefers players he already knows and is stubborn as a mule. Recruitment needs to be taken away from him.

This was one of the reasons I didn’t want him to get the job.

If this is the case he’s going to fail miserably here as Steve Cook type of signings wouldn’t wash under the Ashley regime never mind the new one.
 

So far Howe has failed in all his team selections for someone who is meant to be analytical and if the source is true he’ll also fail in recruitment. 

 

Disappointing.

- Bruce in the dugout longer than he needed which delayed the appointment of a new manager

- Delay in appointment of said new manager due to uncertainty surrounding preferred candidate.

- No Sporting Director to oversee football operations

- No new CEO to oversee business operations 

 

they took over in October. Football moves quicker than the speed of her decisions.

And with decisions allegedly having to be run past PIF before being actioned, how do you know it’s the speed of her decisions that are so bad and that you’re now whinging about? None of us know what’s happening in the background.

We don't know that those decision (or lack of) are down to a lack of conviction. Its just guesswork.

And yet that is still only 2 months ago..

 

They’ve taken on a hollow shell of a club which pretty much had Lee Charnley as it’s only staff member. It’s gonna take time to turn this around.

It took Benitez 3 games to work out that Steven Taylor was shite, 9 games to work out Sels was shite in the Championship and realised after the summer window in 2017-18 shut that we needed a better keeper than Elliot and Darlow at PL level before loaning and then buying Dubravka.

 

He hasn't failed, he's been in charge for 5 or 6 weeks, 5 games. He's still working out his best side the hard way whilst also having to coach players that haven't been effectively coached for over 2 years.

Think about the mammoth job in front of them.  Never mind football for now.  How many people in marketing?  How many people in accounting?  What about groundskeepers and custodial staff?  What kind of software are they running?  How old are the servers?  Are there any IT people?  What is the level of training?  Any cross training?

 

They have to build a fully functional business operation from the ground up.

 

What do people expect after two months.  If you walk into the wilderness for fourteen years you can't expect to turn around and walk out in two months.
