Agree. So we have several players who will get a pay rise as contracted to be 'highest earner' if we sign a significant upgrade. I wonder if the contracts have a 'ceiling' clause (anything above 60K has to be agreed and is not automatic)? I can't see we'd be so dumb as to write 6 contracts...

:lolol: No worries mate. I take everything a bit too literally sometimes. OK, all the time. :bigwave:

I feel I have entered the twiglet zone. So are you saying he plays no part in preparing the list? ??? Are you saying that the other three guys and the scouts are allowed to trawl only the Dutch first division? What about my point that Chris decides the strategy, tactics, and line up? ...

Yep. I am more than happy to disagree with you. Enjoy your day.

I don't understand your point. It seems a long way from the discussion. I was replying to the idiotic 'point' someone else was making, that CH has nothing to do with recruitment, and that all the players he has (presumably reluctantly) agreed to sign were foisted upon him by the people who...

My original point was that the problem lies with the manager and the way he deploys his team. I will copy and paste 'all those points' (my points, not someone else's points) for you: Hughton is part of a four man recruitment tems. No player is singed without his approval. If yesterday was a...

No. No you are not.

Are you saying that although CH has the final say in recruitment, the process is flawed because someone else, the scouting team, identify the possible recruits? So you think that Mr Clough, Mr Shankley and Mr Ferguson did all their own scouting? ??? If I had a spare staw I'd give you one to...

The answer is in your question. You are simply confirming the point I was trying to make in a subtle way (too subtle it seems) that changing the manager is the only strategy with any hope (not guarantee of course) of improvement. :shrug:

Yes but it is bollocks. Hughton is part of a four man recruitment tems. No player is singed without his approval. If yesterday was a 'statement' then it was 'I don't trust my own judgement'. The new players are supposed to have brought a bit more attacking football. But he doesn't set up the...
