Gemmill 42458 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Can't get too excited about the appointment of execs like. I know it's important, but the quotes and stuff are just like when work appoints a new member of the Board. All management speak. Where's their youtube highlight reels? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2311 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 The advantage that Mitchell has over someone like Freedman, Spors etc, for example, is that he has strong European and UK contacts and knowledge. The aforementioned had one or the other. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21245 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 i think, crucially, he also has experience of the "multi-club" model, which is where the game seems to be going, and probably what our future looks like 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 42458 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 The kid in the video barely speaks English. At one point he delivers a line so killer that he puts it up on screen to: "His talent ID at multiple clubs have proven itself" Reminds me of good old George W Bush: "The question we have to ask ourselves is: Is our children learning?"

Gemmill 42458 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 We tried to buy Kilman last month. He's now off to Man United for £40m if reports are to be believed. I mean I know he's not exactly an unknown talent, but this is where losing your DoF to another club right at the start of the summer window is a bad thing.

It’s West Ham that’s had a bid accepted like so has less to do with Ashworth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
