We have an owner that has always stated that he wants to make money, we have TA who is basically an ex football agent and knows how to sell players, we have set up a youth system to produce players that we can sell...to make the owner money! It falls down when we have a manager who is reluctant to play what is seen as our assets. (chalmers/Appere etc) For this reason I think we will move to get a manager that has previous for developing youth players, such as John Hughes.
This has the distinctive ringtones of what the snake and Jackie were trying to achieve.
I have no problems if it means success on the field but have serious concerns if we are putting money ahead of success as we have already seen what that achieves!
For what it is worth, I am grateful for MM's achievements this season but I can't think of a single player that has progressed under his guidance, so I am happy with a new manager to come in and to try and get more out our squad.
