    As i thought, Alex doesnt get involved with the nitty-gritty when dealing with signings - All down to Jez. Im pleased about this, Jez is a top negotiator and isnt going to be taken advantage of by rouge agents.

    [quote user="Woodman"][quote user="True Grit"][quote user="Woodman"]The man himself (Jez, not TG), roared past me this morning on the way in, heading towards Carrow Road.

A) that''s slander B) would never happen[/quote] I spotted him coming in the opposite direction to me having negotiated the long queue from the roadworks at the mini roundabout near Sainsbury''s. I wouldn''t say he was speeding, but his Mercedes was certainly capable of exceeding the 30 mph in place on that road.[/quote] Something fishy is going on here, and I''m going to get to the bottom of it. You mean the mini roundabout on Grove Road? Well there aren''t any roadworks there... I just stopped off at the Tesco there to restock on nutrigrain for the car - traffic flowing absolutly fine. Hmm

    [quote user="norfolkbroadslim"]The NISA just up the road from me is selling 4 pints of milk for only 50p, so that might be part of the reason? [:^)][/quote] They''re a great chain - Often a lifeblood for isolated communities. The one in Ditchingham has saved many a life when folk aren''t able to make the journey to Bungay.

    [quote user="Number 9"]Do we know what the chicken eating Mr Moxey was talking to Banham Poultry about?[/quote] Lucrative sponsorship and chicken, most likely.

    [quote user="rock bus"]I asked this on another thread but got no response. True Grit? Can you explain why you have such faith in Jez? Like most people on here, I have been completely underwhelmed by him and can see no signs that he has contributed anything of value. I am also not convinced by some of the decisions taken at Wolves when we was there. I''m NOT trying to pick an argument, I would just really like to understand why you think he is so great and what evidence you have to support your view.[/quote] Sure. Two words (combined into one): ''Moral'' & ''Fibre''. Jez is able to treat people with dignity and respect, he can put himself on a level with the common man, such as the janitorial staff, right up to senior and high end sponsors of the club (Banham Poultry, etc). This is something McNally was unable to do. On Jez''s first month at City he spent a day in each of the different departments. He spent those days WORKING, not just sitting about playing Angry Birds on his phone and dishing out orders. He did a day in the kitchen at Delias, peeling spuds, washing up and emptying out the walk-in freezer. He worked with the groundsmen, doing the lines and what ever else they do in their potting shed. He trained with the players at Colney and showered with them afterwards. He epitomises teamwork and isn''t afraid of getting his hands dirty. The guy is a touch of class. Eloquent, elegant and dignified. Coupled with the fact he''s one of the most respected and revered figure-heads behind the scenes in English football. Many of you may not know how highly regarded he is, because the media haven''t latched onto it and Jez is a modest guy, not one to shout about his attributes. However ask anyone who works with the profession of football at a high level (as I do) and they will tell you that Jez Moxey is one of the classiest operators around. So just be thankful he''s here. Just be thankful. Best, TG

    Far from a clown, he''s the ring master.

    ...In terms of their morals, look no further than the following link. Founder members of youthzone, helping out kids. More evidence that we have one of the best and most caring CEO''S in the game. I can also see Babette taking a more active role within the club, which in no doubt would be a good thing. http://www.thewayyouthzone.org/support-us/our-supporters/supporters-divisions/founder-patrons/jez-moxey/
  11. True Grit
    Women throw themselves at Jez, but he''d never leave Babette. He''s as loyal as they come.

    Hey Everybody,Its that time of year again, the bleak tundra that is January - Generally a low mood time of year, which has been made worse in our case by results not going our way away from home. But, i urge you to pick yourselves up and support the team and board - your football club needs you. I know that behind the scenes Jez is working as hard as he possibly can to put this bad run to an end.Best,TG
  13. True Grit
    Best CEO in football. End of.
  14. True Grit
    We have a financially viable club, which is run by a team of people who care dearly about the players, the staff and guess what else..? YOU. We have an excellent stadium, with a high end restaurant, which has created numerous jobs. We have one of the top dogs of English football in Jez Moxey overseeing, steering, moulding the club into what will be a true force to be reckoned with. Rome wasn''t built in a day, just remember that. Just remember that.

    [quote user="The Big Bad Wolf"]Let me guess, TG. We should be thankful to have Moxey?[/quote] Yes.
  16. True Grit
    The guys immaculate. How on earth is any of this his fault? Today we were cheated by an incompetent referee and a lack of dicipline by Nelson - nothing to do with Jez.

    Tom Thorpe from Bolton Will Hatfield from Guiseley Keep it hush hush
  18. True Grit
    [quote user="Number 9"]TG, it''s probably just a bit of light relief to take the focus away from the club being sold off this month. Have you heard anything of interest regarding players in or out at NCFC?[/quote] Tom Thorpe of Bolton is what I heard from my source within the club. Brady to leave.
  19. True Grit
    Some deplorable comments in this thread. Jez can do what he wants in his spare time. This only reinforces the fact that he can put him self on any level; he''s as comfortable eating and mixing with the common man at a fast food outlet, as he is with influential sponsors (eg Banham Poultry) and VIP''s at Delia''s. Whenever I''ve seen him the guys been immaculate, be it suited or in casual wear.

    [quote user="Feedthewolf"]Qashqai holding up well in the treacherous conditions, I trust?I''m a maverick, so I''m taking the Xsara Picasso for a spin down to Sportspark later for an outdoor six-a-side session at 9pm. Hardcore.[/quote] Don''t do it, not worth it. Qashqai has winter tyres on as recommended by my mechanic - even so I''m not taking the risk, have put the cover on and leaving her for the night.

    Hey Guys, Just wanted to inform everybody that the BBC weather application has just alerted my Samsung Galaxy tablet with the following: YELLOW WARNING of Snow YELLOW WARNING of wind YELLOW WARNING of ice Thankfully they aren''t Red Warnings, but yellow are still serious. Please stay safe out there everybody. if you''re out on the roads keep traction control on, stay a safe distance from the veichle in front and expect the unexpected. I''ll try and provide a rolling update service regarding the conditions we are facing here, but I''m very busy at the moment - as I''m sure you can appreciate, with the window being open and all. Only drive if completely necessary, if you forgot to get that pint of milk on the way home, forget it - you''re having your tea black tonight. It''s not worth taking risk of driving to the shop, I assure you. Best, TG

    The of the best coaches in the game. First class operator who was always top of the class when he was doing his badges. Knows the game inside out, has been very unlucky with the board and staff at the club''s he''s worked at, which has massively hindered his success. Jez and Steve would be a superb duo at City should Alex leave.
  23. True Grit
    Brady. Snodgrass is out for himself. Jez wouldn''t have him anyway - he''s all about he team and not interested in individuals trying to be big charlies.
  24. True Grit
    This kids a scouts dream. Ticks all the boxes, not surprised he went for big money. Quality.
