Couple of bits from the chats afterwards - Ben Williams is still involved, along with his role at the Brooklyn Nets, and some work with Ineos and others. They've promoted somebody else to be the full time performance director here but Williams still contracted to the club and working here.
Most recent meeting with the EFL Sky have basically said they won't be announcing the live games beyond January 1 until some time in December. So you're going to get about a month's notice through the second half of the season because they want to make sure they've got the games with most riding on them. triffic. | | | |

Was there any mention of contract reductions?!  | |

I thought we wanted a transfer policy which was in line with clubs ethos rather than just players the manager wants. Because as weāve seen numerous times, when the manager leaves we need to build all over again. That said, I would be amazed if Marti doesnāt have some involvement. | | | |

I heard Marti answer questions on what new signings we were going to make during the last window, and his replies were always the same that the Club knew very well what he wanted. So for me it was clear that he was well involved in deciding what sort and who all the new signings were going to be, and the outgoings come to that, along with Nouri and the Recruitment department. | | | |

I watched on YouTube - I like Nourry even though he reminds me of Richard Thompson they are so similar.
We are building a long term project which is great to see and we are going to have a lot of bumps along the way so we all just need to be patient.
3 points tonight and I guess we will all feel much better. | | | |

Just reading through the thread now so I apologise if this comes up later. Is it an opinion though? You are saying it is really one of the two you posted, so you are saying one of them is true and therefore its not an opinion, you are saying it's a fact | | | |

Positive comments about Nourry, how dare you!
He clearly hates all the fans and doesn't tell us anything!!!

They may well have known what he wanted but did he get who he wanted | | | |

Football without fans is nothing, etc.

Very interesting few hours yesterday evening for the club.
The manager is staying, the assistant manager is staying, DembelƩ is staying, Clarke-Salter is staying. And all of this, all of this just happens to fall into place with joy and serendipity before Cifuentes meets the fans.
Glasnost and Perestroika. | |

He said "mostly" when asked that as I remember. I guess that Liverpool LB who went to Blackburn was one we missed out on. | | | |

Sorry thought this was clear. It is my opinion that there are only two logical options. If someone can present a rational third option, then Iām all ears. Following last night, I think it is pretty obvious Nourry is a bit of a control freak. Again my opinion, of course. | | | |

Impressed with Nourry, great talker and clearly has ideas.
Iāve no issue the contract lengths not being disclosed, if they are then it naturally creates a lot more social media chat particularly as they come to an end. This in turn can be picked up by other clubs which can unsettle or make our negotiations more difficult as other teams declare an interest. I donāt see this decision as a Game Changer (although interesting others have adopted) but by avoiding disclosing details a small incremental gain. | | | |

Some could say control freak, others might call it attention to detail / finger on the pulse. There's a fine line, but its placement is open to interpretation.
As CEO / DOF its important to have an element of this, whilst having awareness to delegate tasks to the pros in their field, which from afar, looks to be happening. | | | |

As stated before my opinion is that it is possible that Marti was asked if he wanted to attend and said heād rather not. There is also the possibility that as Nourryās role encompasses the football side of the club it was decided he was fully capable to answer questions about this (which he did) and therefore the coach didnāt need to be there.
Add these to your āonly two logical optionsā in my opinion. | | | |

I have to laugh.
For the last few years one of the chief criticisms was about lines of accountability, the vagueness of who was responsible for what. Someone comes in and takes control and suddenly he's a control freak.
you gotta love football fans. | |

What you're saying is they deliberately saved up some good news to release directly to fans at a forum.
Not quite sure what's so evil about that, but carry on. | |

Cheers Antti, had a proper LOL at that.
Can't win can you? | |

Thought it was a pretty nuanced post myself.
Good news wrapped in corporate bullshit is how I read it, | | | |

Itās nowhere near as black and white as you are making out. Either it has to be one of two things - one happy camp, or a completely broken relationship. | | | |
| Fans Forum 30/09/24 on 11:26 - Oct 1 with 1897 views | NewYorkRanger |
don't think I'm saying that at all. But what I am saying is that if there is an obvious fracture in the relationship between the CEO and the manager, it's pretty unlikely the board would offer a big pay rise. I mean what would be the point?
I know this board is all about opinions and everyone is entitled to theirs, but this particular subject seems like a non issue to me. There's doesn't seem to be a problem, but some insist on manufacturing one | |

I'm not sure what I think of it yet, Antti, apart from being baffled.
I'm unlikey to decide that it's evil, though. | |

| Fans Forum 30/09/24 on 11:56 - Oct 1 with 1665 views | Antti_Heinola |
Is it baffling?
I have plenty of reservations about Nourry because it's so early on, but it makes a fair bit of sense to me to announce them at the same time at an event like a forum. | |

I caught up with most of it and was generally very pleased. Well organised, sensible questions and answersā¦and I liked the video inserts. Seems churlish to moan too much. However, did I miss anything about the Development squad ( other than continuity of style and role in progressing young talent ). For example. Thereās a game todayā¦still nothing on Offy. In the past we could watch streams of games and get first hand insight on how things are working. Now a rare event. | | | |
