Did anyone hear this alleged statement by laudrup that he didn't know anything about emnes and that he was told he was a good player when here before??

Yeah I heard it, said he didn't know anything about him. Said so on twitter and got slated for it.

So someone in a position of power at the club thinks Emnes is a Premier League player and can get us to sign him.

That is all kinds of scary.

I'd say so yes, we've been laughing at Cardiff for similar on goings. Surely the chairman signing players the manager has no knowledge of is worrying.

We were speaking to a well know board member over in Valencia and one of the things he told us was about Emnes and what he called Jenkins obsession with him and getting him back down here.
He and others just couldn't understand it.

For me this is confirmation that all is not well down there as this is quite clearly a Jenkins decision with the manager having no input what so ever.

Is Jenkins buying for the Championship or what?

I so envy Hull at the moment, bringing in Jelavic and Holtby shows some purpose, just for that they deserve to finish above us.

Sure I messed it up.

Long, Jelavic or Holtby any of them would be good. But I guess we do not have that kind of money or what?

If that is true, which I believe it is and there are probably a few other players in the same bracket. I have no confidence in Huw Jenkins remaining as chairman, I fully expect to be slated for that, but chairman with no footballing experience apart from the business end of things signing players is a massive no go in my opinion, and can't carry on.

Appoint a manager, back him with funds that we can afford and let him select his players.

When is the next fans forum, this surely needs to be heavily brought up. Chairmen (not even a director of football) should not be bringing in players that our manager knows nothing about or hasn't signed off on. The whole scouting system needs to change, we should be looking further afield than championship, scotland and Spain

I always thought it was just paper talk with Emnes until said conversation with a well known member of our board, even he was slating him for it.

The fact he is allowed to bring in a player who quite frankly wasn't that good in the championship now without the say of his manager really does start me questioning Jenkins, he's the chairman not a scout or manager and should be sticking to the business side of things and never be involved in brining in players.

Doesn't say much for Laudrup as a Manager,but he's honest enough to admit it publicly and for that you must give him some credence.Jenkins should have been wrapped over the knuckles if not more for messing up the Ki loan,how much is he on £200K+,matter swept under the table.

I think depends whether Laudrup had any targets of his own.

If he didn't but Huw or whoever suggested Emnes as another body just in case, that's one thing and I wouldn't expect to see Emnes anywhere near the teamsheet for the rest of the season.

If he did but they were rejected and he was told that he was getting Emnes instead, that's another, much more worrying thing altogether and I wouldn't be surprised to see Laudrup walk.

However, if it was the latter, I think he'd have gone already. Also surprised (pleasantly) that we haven't heard from Tutumlu in all of this.....yet.

Wasn't this one of the main reasons ML fell out with his previous Chairmen in La Liga & Russia? And wasn't he given assurances that would not happen here?

If Jenkins & Co. have indeed been making decisions around players without ML's input then surely there's no doubt we will be looking for a new manager over the summer.

Such a shame the Evil Lord Tumultus completely fcuked up last season as surely it has decreased team Laudrup's overall chances of making super signings.

Laudrups signings the year previous were quality and got us a trophy and Europe. Without Tutuloco we haven't had as much success. Maybe he's the one laughing now at us.

Someone needs to have a word with him and let him know it's not on. Should be some sort of check in place to limit his ability to do stuff like this. Say, a fans representative on the board?

I was unclear: I didn't mean last season's signings weren't overall a success. By fu*king up I meant he acted in a way that had to mean he would be an outcast at this club.

Depends on what their jobs are. Jenkins is the only full timer down there isn't he?

Maybe Tooty-Fruity's crime last year was telling Jenkins he was off his head wanting to sign Emnes?

In any case I'd much rather have Laudrup concentrating on managing the team rather than conducting trench warfare with the Chairman over his attempts to sign dross for the first team. Jesus wept.

In similar ownership situations to that of the club, you often have a shareholders' agreement that amongst other things sets out what are the responsibilities of the board and management respectively.

However, these types of documents invariably fail to spell out what are the detailed responsibilities of individual management team members.

Time to get that put in place it would seem, since the actions of Jenkins are for me another manifestation of his absence of confidence in Laudrup, to go with that Observer article from before the last derby.

I think that perspective is in itself deeply misguided, but if what is preventing him from sacking the guy is that he is too f*cking tight with his own money then that would be criminal.
