Paul Warne-ock

I still think we need someone with football knowledge in the boardroom, who would show Warne the ropes in management, while also giving advice to Tony Stewart in football matters.
Silly mistakes with such has the Blackstock saga, should never happen again, where has the football computer & bloke fetched in seems has not fetched the players in to the club, might has well have gone on pc & asked Jeeves.
I think its time now to put Paul Douglas out to pasture, & get that some one into the club who knows about football, the appointment was ready made in Warnock, be it though he wanted to fill his dreams of a record number of promotions.

The Blackstock saga hasn't been repeated since his appointment and the players brought in are less expensive as a whole to Rotherham United. Only when they are sold will we see what type of profit the club will make on them. At that point we'll see his true value.

What does the second paragraph mean? Don't understand any of it.

Blackstock saga Mellowmiller, the club giving a 3 year contract to a player over the hill, sanctioned by Paul Douglas was comical, so we don't want this type of thing happening again.
Then the bloke we have got into the club, with this computer that gives him the knowledge on players, total bunkem. Getting players into the club requires scouts on foot, watching players & reporting back to the club.
The ask Jeeves is a search engine for information, so I am saying you might has well ask Jeeves than depend on a bloke looking at a computer that's cost the club a bomb.

I don't get this having a go at Paul Douglas on here.

He's there to do the legals & keep the admin going.

He doesn't decide what the budget is, doesn't identify players & doesn't decide what terms are offered to them. Not his role.

Spot on Peri. Agree 100%. Easy target

Tbf there weren't many complaints when we signed Dexter Blackstock. Quite the opposite in fact. People were genuinely excited that we'd signed a bona fide Championship striker, one everyone had heard of. Neither we nor those responsible for signing him were to know how disastrous a signing it would turn out to be
