Tetteys Jig 830 Posted June 9, 2015 Don''t forget he''ll be looking here to source players as well. He probably wasn''t aware of who John Guidetti or Fabio Quagliarella were until he looked on here.As if he has come back to work on his birthday as well, that just sums up the guy really!How much of a say does he have in transfers anyway?We have this footballing board who supposedly do the deals but I can imagine each deal must be approved by AN before it''s finalised. I wouldn''t want us signing players without the managers permission unless Messi becomes available on deadline day for free! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect the footballing board will be one of those things that was brought in under a previous manager and will now quietly get shelved. Obviously the Board will ultimately control the amount we can spend on transfers but I expect that''ll be about it in reality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icecream Snow 761 Posted June 9, 2015 After Barry Simmonds left the club I don''t believe we actually have a "Head of Recruitment", so Alex Neil will definitely be calling all the shots.I think the footballing board was brought about from Hughton trying to do too much, at the expense of the first team, based on the specific examples McNally gave.
