Lee Hoos - CEO with football expereince 11:16 - Nov 6 with 7164 views | classof93 | Perhaps having CEO in place with football experience (for the first time in a while) may mean our manger recruitment process is better this time? We might actually have a shortlist of candidates and actually properly interview them? My understanding is that Hoos has a decent record of appointing managers. In the past it's been Flavio, Tony and Phil Beard - with no experience in this area but Hoos is a football CEO. Although saying that it will probably be who the fans on twitter tell Tony who it should be! | | | | |

What about him suggests he was capable of bringing about that change? Honest question. | |

Lee Hoos - CEO with football expereince on 17:20 - Nov 6 by Juzzie | Ditto. Rules have been changed as the clubs once had too much power. It's completely swung the other way and the players have too much power now, rules need to be brought in again to get equilbrium. Start off by getting rid of Gordon Taylor, clubs paying agents (players can pay their agents as much as they like as long as it comes out of their own pocket), clubs should not go over something like 70% of income on player salaries etc etc. |
It would end up being the same. Players will just ask for more to give to their agents. It needs to be easier to fire players imo. The threat of no cheque coming through the door will give em a kick in the posterior. | |

There are very few managers who have successfully done it. But if you're trying to put a manager in charge who's going to implement the youth based vision of the director of football, two things which could be viewed as positives are: No pre-conceived systems or ideas (rules out established managers like redknapp, big sam) Proven record of developing youngsters Was he the right choice? Apparently not. But I do think he was the right KIND of choice | | | |

Lee Hoos - CEO with football expereince on 12:37 - Nov 6 by Konk | Ideally you want a bevy of beautiful air hostesses, models of planes and your owner wearing a cap advertising another one of his business ventures, that looks like it was knocked-up at Snappy Snaps. Or you could go down the Fulham route and have a middle-aged bloke with a comedy moustache wearing a football shirt over his suit. Dignity and gravitas. |
Or Dignitas for short... | | | |

There is, of course, a massive clusterfck going on with Ferdinand and Warnock butting heads, and Fernandes potentially getting involved, so that might skewer things. | | | |

I think you're right. "Spin this to keep the plebs happy" | |

Lee Hoos - CEO with football expereince on 14:08 - Nov 6 by Northernr | Sadly mate that's not how it works any more is it? Ferguson was probably the last of that generation. You bully or shout at or give the players stick now they simply stop playing for you, particularly at clubs like ours where they know they don't have to stop playing for long before the manager gets the sack. If they're not on your side you've had it - same at every club these days, all the power with the wnkr footballers. |
"You bully or shout at or give the players stick now they simply stop playing for you". Nothing to lose then in Traore's case. | | | |

Lee Hoos - CEO with football expereince on 12:12 - Nov 6 by daveB | Jimmy Bullard reckons he was nothing but a big bully and he really lost the plot last season when the pressure got on, the state of QPR i think he might murder someone if he got the job |
Pearson signed nearly all of the players that have got Leicester up to 3rd in the Prem. Even if he is a bully, he's got a good eye for pacey, skillfull players. They played nice football all of last season. He even made the signing, of last season in Huth to shore up the defence. | | | |
