Yes, good point - although I feel that the wording should be "by mutual consent". The only example I can think of where a manager was sued was Dowie at Palace: he was sued by Tangoman for breaching his contract - I think Tangoman won too

I'm with you on this in that I heard Oscar wanted to coach and leave player recruitment to Burke. Although they same person told me that Oscar didn't Meet Grabban which is directly contradicted by this article. So not sure (once again) how much is spin and from whom.
It is possible that having got pissed off with the recruitment approach that Garcia threw his toys out of.the pram and left it to Burke effectively saying that if youvwont listen to me.then I.will leave it all up to you and I will just coach what I'm given. In which case both stories could be accurate.

We talk about panic buys of players I do just wonder, and perhaps understandably with the Poyet fracas, whether Oscar was a too hasty appointment as manager. Perhaps he is not cut out for the cut and thrust involved with a progressive championship club. Very good coach he may be but effective manager, I have my doubts.

This clarifies that we are exactly where most of us thought we were.
Hopefully Tony and Paul will take a look at how the recruitment department operates and make some changes but they wont loosen the purse strings.
Liked Biscuit's budgetory analogy. Clarifies how difficult it will be for the new manager.
I wondwr if Oscar left any recommendations on the retainer list or if this will now be down to NJ who, by my guess, will be staying?

I'd hope for this too along with greater transparency on budgets

By which time he had been here 4 months or so and perhaps saw the way things were progressing?

Wouldn't be surprised if he gets the job with an experienced number 2 alongside him to be honest.

Jesus, let's hope we have more ambition than that......

I fear you might be right. It doesn't fill me.with confidence though. I'm not saying I want a.big name, but a bit of.experience wouldn't go amiss
Or he had little interest in the intricacies of transfer deals, and wanted a title that reflected the role he wanted to undertake.
One or the other, I suppose...

Not sure you will get that although hopefully the new manager will have an accurate view of where we stand.
If you put your budgets out there to the fans you will be exploited (or avoided) by every players' agent wanting a slice of rhe cake.

lol...i wasnt suggesting actual figures!
And there my friend are actual facts, as opposed to all the budget and transfer conjecture. No point giving OG more money to buy attacking players if he doesn't have the cojones to play them in anything other than reactive circumstances.

As I said earlier, I had heard what you saying but the Naylot article contradicts a lot of that. They can't both be totally right but they can.both be largely right. I suspect that the telegraph article and the ulloa injury came before he could have taken the manager title and, by then, he had made his mind up based on.what control he thought he would have in signings

Would this be the reason you voted "No" in the very recent poll as to whether you wanted Garcia to stay...or not ?

Indeed. Head Coach is the norm in Spain as is the recruitment system we are trying to adopt. At the moment it is too "clanky" and doesnt reflect the coach's views but with tweeking we will get their respective roles sorted.

which doesn't necessarily mean no choice in what players he wants to work with

Does this £22 million represent the playing staff wages....or does it include all the Albion staff (such as Admin staff etc etc)...?
