    What does this mean?

    Darren, who previously held an integral role in Gary Rowett’s backroom staff at Birmingham City, added: “The chairman is putting a structure in place and is not trying to run the club solely from a fans’ perspective."


    Surely most NCFC fans would welcome a structured scouting operation and especially as opposed to a Branston situation.

    I'm assuming he's been told to say that but probably means the club want to build from the bottom up in a sustainable manner and not just buy so called 'marquee' players to satisfy the whims of a proportion of the fan base?

    I assumed it meant that AH was treating the club professionally and not just as a vanity project i.e. AH is the fan he refers to. Maybe wrong though.

    Actually, that makes much more sense.

    Well this is a situation where punctuation is important, the articles says "fans' perspective" and not "fan's perspective".

    I'll go with the marquee explanation.

    Could mean either i suppose as punctuation these days is terrible from many quarters.

    I suppose you choose the definition based on how cynical you are feeling at the time of reading!
