Well, I was told by a Middle East contact in the week that we had acquired some land we have been after for a while, I checked but was told it was fake news, either my Middle Eastern guy was mistaken or the person I checked with threw me a curve ball.

The timing of Warburton's departure from West Ham is certainly interesting. Hard to see how someone with his football philosophy could work with Ainsworth though.

When you put it like that then its difficult to argue. I think Les has done Ok considering what a mess the club was in, but the DoF role still isn't working correctly and that blame ultimately needs to be on the owners. The past 12/18 months have been an almost complete disaster though and Les should probably go. Still a legend in my eyes.
For what it's worth the big news is either a new ground, Warburton back in some role, or a big damp squid.

Les resigns as DoF as he has bought out Tony Fernandes to become a full owner and board member. His first job is to appoint Mark Warburton to replace him. Twitter implodes.
The grass is always greener.

Getting rid of MW I could live with and MB looked like a good appointment, as did Critchley. The issue was needing to get rid of MW players then brining in MB players then when we couldn't do wholesale changes for NC having to replace him with a manager who could motivate the squad to get them over the line.
It might not be ideal that the owners are hands off but signing players managers want just because they're loyal to them is what the DoF should be avoiding and the failure in that area is nothing to do with the owners. Perhaps more hands on owners would have intervened but I think the remit is quite clear and they shouldn't have to remind the DoF of that.

90% sure it’s nothing to do with Warbs - sadly. He was parachuted in over Moyes and it never quite worked. He also didn’t get on with Moyes style of play unfortunately.
Would imagine it’s board changes or similar.

Yeah, can't abide the personal vitriol aimed at Les, but the DoF oversee's the footballing stratagy................ I can well believe his role is actually more one of trying to mitigate some of our owner's interference, mind, but his role is DoF and it was a clusterfck last season.

Unfortunate it didn't work out after a promising start, he'll always be a club legend for his playing days and for keeping us competitive while cutting budgets..
I hope the idea is to replace the DoF rather than scrap the system as I believe it is our best option.
