The ambition which the board of directors has shown recently is very poor and I cannot see any major improvement being achieved under the control of Garlick. There is a difference between being prudent with funds available and letting the club decline due to lack of investment in the team.

If Garlick is controlling the funds for any transfers in January it will be BFC’s normal transfer policy.
1) We enquire as to the availability of a player.
2) His club says yes, he is available and the price being £15M.
3) BFC offer £10M
4) The players club reject our offer saying the price is £15M
5) BFC increase their offer by £500K
Steps 4 & 5 are repeated until the transfer window closes and the player is not signed.

We will be scrambling around on transfer dead line day bringing in someone who will not fit the profile required by our manager and he will sit on the bench match after match possibly getting on the pitch for the last 10 minutes if he is lucky.

Hope I am wrong and we do some good business in the January transfer window, but not holding my breath if Garlick is still in charge.
