My brother calls me that.

He was actually answering questions before we asked them.

I'm sorry, I don't do impressions, my work in specifically in the field of publishing. Sorry. When it comes to considering people in his position, I'm not in pre-disposed to make a real judgement on their role. I'm not a football administrator, never have been nor have I ever played Football...

You've just contradicted yourself. You have passed a certain amount of judgement by announcing there's stuff you don't understand, and 'struggle to warm' to this wrongly-titled Director of Football (it's Head of Football Operations). And you've done this before you've listened in.

:wave:

I've got to be honest, I didn't understand that bit. However, knowing that people who listen in to a recording can make notes of the figures and digest them, I decided not to challenge him. It could have taken up more time than we realistically had. And I still might not have understood it...

It's interesting that Burke is being judged on players that haven't pulled up any trees yet, and yet is being dismissed in his role in, say, acquiring Ulloa. It might not have been Burke's network who found him, but it was Burke who was head of the team that landed him - a full year into his...

Why do some people leave it too late to ask questions?

I think he even pointed that out about 15 minutes in.

The show, parts 1 & 2, is now up as a podcast on iTunes and at www.albionroar.co.uk 76 minutes of David Burke.

Any more? Nah, you're too late.

Be interesting to see if our new striker arrives by the time we have a natter on Thursday evening.

Have we stopped doing that? ???

What I think he means is that others have damned him (Burke) without knowing what he does, nor how he goes about it, and are judging him on limited criteria. I've got to be honest, I don't know what he does on a day to day basis (that's not to say no-one else does, of course), so I'm going to...

Any more...? We're recording on Thursday evening.

No, they're not my answers. You can tell that because they're not answers. They're the reasons why I think they're loaded questions.

There isn't a lack of quality of questions. Many are excellent, and will probably be asked.

I also think it's perfectiy reasonable to ask it. So I will. But I won't do it on the back of an assumption or accusation of incompetence.

See post 35.

I asked for sensible questions - not loaded, assumptive ones with an agenda attached. Of course I have to edit the questions to make them pertinent.
