….there is a poster on here who defends this man (just like he idolised Benitez). There is a poster on here who thinks he did exactly the right thing in not bringing in an effective forward these last two windows.
i didn’t take to him the first time I heard him. He talks the talk. He sounds like a politician. He calls himself a ‘line manager’. i’ve never once heard him talk about players he’s brought into football clubs, I never once heard Moshiri ask him about his record in the transfer market. I never once heard the Board interviewed him intrinsically about his record on footballers.
Failure to bring in an effective striker in TWO windows when folk on this site highlighted DCLs fragility 18 months ago demonstrates this man is not a ‘football man’. He’s smarmy, he’s exactly what we don’t need yet he largely escapes the Boardroom wrath.
Thelwell is negligent, he needs to go.
