And if it's not you get paid off after a year so it's a winner either way. If you're really good, they'll pay you to sit in your garden for a year.

Maybe one of them will roll back the years and not be a complete disaster and/or not punch cats tonnes. Imagine the reaction if we signed any of these Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somehow Wilson ended up moving in summer having done nowt, think it would be fair to say it’s the structure upstairs that pisses off these guys (not Howe / DoF relations). Because if everything needs signing off and it takes an age, I can see why a DoF gets frustrated as some deals are there to be made quick, so if you can’t do those deals and miss out, it’s all a bit meh for them. Never got on with Mitchell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 As a grown man who is unable to watch my team lose and despite not knowing what Ross Wilson does day-to-day, he definitely should take some of the blame I'm apportioning today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAK Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Not sure why everyone’s on this guys case. He can only sign players if we have the budget which we don’t unless we reduce summer spending. He’s probably doing the groundwork for the summer spending I.e. discussing what profile Howe wants , analysing player reports with Nickson, Andy Howe and SUDS, sounding out agents, gauging what selling clubs will want.

The College Dropout Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 On 11/01/2026 at 16:00, TRon said: Mitchell's job WAS to be the alpha. That's the way most clubs are set up these days, where the DOF makes all the decisions running the club, and the coach is responsible for coaching. Whether Mitchell was actually any good at his job is another matter, it might be he was hopeless. But Wilson will need to deliver on all the same fronts, whether we like it or not, most clubs are running this model. We have actually done well in recruiting one of the best coaches in the PL in Howe, but even he will need to work within the framework set by Wilson according to the club's overall vision. Nah - you don't come in and immediately upset the beloved manager and the clubs best player. Maybe he did good things at U18 level. But Mitchell did next to nothing of value for first team other than some easier contract renewals Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
