    Not at all. His degree is in economics and land management, so the minimum I expect is competency in property matters. However, when it comes to sports administration, he is totally unqualified. As the evidence of recent events have shown.

    Panzo is a lucky boy. Not even he spotted the handball. Also, he didn’t get booked for taking his shirt off, which happens to goalscorers if they do.

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    THFC may be ‘making a loss’ according to the accounts, but it is not ‘losing money’ in the strictest sense. Take this year’s numbers. A loss of £50 million. But look further up the profit and loss and you see depreciation of £72 million. Which is a non-cash item, so doesn’t actually reduce the...

    EFL Championship, League One and League Two 22/23

    Nostalgia time for me. I went to Highfield Road and Kenilworth Road in the 80s. I think we drew both games. Hoddle missed a penalty at Luton. I also played on the Luton pitch when it was artificial. To damp down the bounce, they put some kind of viscous liquid on it. I remember getting up from...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    Indeed, as I posted in the Manager thread. Here’s what I wrote: ”I watched the BT interview with Paul Barber, chief exec (ex THFC) at Brighton. He was asked about succession planning. He said he is constantly looking at 20-25 people on and off the field and looking at who can fill that role if...

    I’m watching the BT interview with Paul Barber, chief exec (ex THFC) at Brighton. He was asked about succession planning. He said he is constantly looking at 20-25 people on and off the field and looking at who can fill that role if it becomes vacant. The first question is “who is in the...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    This is the problem, sidford. There is a strategy. And it’s working brilliantly. The difficulty is that the board know that communicating it to the fans would not so much pour petrol onto a fire as drop a hydrogen bomb into an erupting volcano.

    Naming rights, I hear you say? Then you must be referring to the estimable Todd Kline, brought in two years ago to provide exactly that. Anything to say, Todd? “We’re running a process. It’s been a rewarding process. We’ve met some amazing people throughout it and I think we’ll land on the...

    Following Mason’s presser on live (ish) text. Romero still not fit but Hojbjerg may be. Mason says the new manager needs to be in place before decisions are made in the transfer window. Don’t tell us mate, tell Levy.

    Fans: We want Pochettino! Levy: No, someone like Pochettino, but not Pochettino. Fans: Pochettino? Levy: No, guess again Fans: Slot, then. Levy: Oh do f**k off… I think the problem will be that by adopting this Venn diagram approach to managerial recruitment, the club will eventually realise...
