Bert 236 Posted May 23, 2022 1) Webber to tell us what has gone wrong? What was his role and what confidence can we have that lessons have been learned 2) Nepotism Tom is the other one, he is the future of the club, what is his long term strategy ?

Decimation of the out field players after every loss. Sure we may lose some members of the squad, but the rest will be encouraged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WD40 720 Posted May 23, 2022 I agree, because what is abundantly clear is Delia and MWJ don’t have any answers. They’ve handed over the tough decisions and long term vision to others for a very long time. They won’t sack Webber and take the club in a bold new direction. So while - for me - there is nothing Webber can say to mitigate his failure, the scary thing is he’s still the only one there that could create the new vision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That went south pretty quick this season. His choice of recruits and manager leave a lot to be desired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Christoph Stiepermann 1,153 Posted May 23, 2022 I'm looking forward to the interview but anyone expecting any blood letting or admissions of failure will be disappointing. Even if he doesn't believe it himself he will have to put a positive spin on it and the interview will likely be conducted by the clubs media team so there wont be any tough questions. He will say it's not the end of the world, that we budgeted for relegation and the club is in a healthy state. He'll defend his signings by noting their age profile and how players often take a year to adjust to English football and that we're restricted by being 'self financing'. He won't slag the owners off or anything, people who think he's going to come out and criticize his employers are mad. He'll probably say were were unlucky at times and blame injuries again. We'll get told how good of a Championship squad we have and how the club has experience of winning the division and that everything is fine.  When the club gets handed over to Tom Smith it will likely be when we're on the up if they can help it, to avoid any backlash and smooth the transition. Nobody going to put him in the line of fire at a time like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They authorised it and bought into it, but it’s the product of the thoughts of others. They are totally passive. And the people that do offer leadership around them appear to have gone. So without a change at the very top I don’t think anything else changes in short term. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
