anonamoose 4 Posted June 4, 2012 It seems to me that at any opportunity Mc Nally is doing presss conferences and interviews. I don''t recall seeing a cheif ex. being so involved in being the ''face'' of the club. Not just at our club either.It has been reported that his negotiating was the reason for Holt''s transfer request. He was also the one trying to convince Lambert to stay. As for Whitbread who knows. I always thought it was the manager who discussed contracts with players.I worry that McNally''s ego is getting in the way of our progress. He has been fantastic up until now, I hope he doesn''t blow it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted June 4, 2012 Or perhaps with the proliferation of social media meaning that nothing is secret anymore, he has to appear publically to be putting an arm round all the folks soiling themselves right now?The manager tells the Chief exec what he would like to happen, the chief exec then talks money etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saying that as supporters we are stakeholders in the club and shouldn''t be kept the dark. I am happy to see him coming out and fronting up to media despite knowing he is going to be asked some tough questions. He has impressed me a lot in the last couple of days and put my mind a little bit more at rest than it would have been otherwie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lappinitup 629 Posted June 4, 2012 A couple of days ago fans were whining because there was no news from the club. Now they''re criticised for attention seeking. They really can''t win...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
65Vintage 7 Posted June 4, 2012 I think the way McNally has handled things, over this difficult time, has been nothing short of brilliant!With all the talk in the press of a "club in crisis" and a "player mutiny" he has reacted through the press and social media to give the impression that there is calm and controlled planning behind the scenes at CR as they work to secure our Premier League future.If it wasn''t for him, I would be seriously worried!

Salopian 1 Posted June 4, 2012 In short, NO! He is doing his best to coprrect errors - eg Wet Spam offered us £4m for Holt, but refused to declare what two (much lower) bids they had made. Would you prefer that he maintained an absolute silence until everything was signed, sealed and delivered? I supect not. He is the only one able to correct press errors, - no one else has the information or the authority to do so. Whether he makes a mistake at some point, I can''t predict. He is, after all, human!

City 2nd 193 Posted June 4, 2012 Another poster (anonomouse) talking absolute DRIVEL!Didn''t say this when, and a year after he appointed Lambert, did you! Go back in your hole! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lincs CR 0 Posted June 4, 2012 Personally I think a lot of damage was done to the fans and the morale around the club because nothing was being said or clarified by anybody, now McNally is putting everyone at ease so we actually know what is going on. What''s the problem with that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When the new manager''s appointed, McNally will step back into the wings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Devils Advocate. 0 Posted June 4, 2012 No way, I rather suspect that like the rest of us, David McNally would rather be relaxing somewhere, doing very little and looking back at how great the last three seasons have been and looking forward to building upon that success next season.
