Do Our Management Team, Know Something We Don't?

[basilrobbie]

Am I truly the only person on here who thinks that loosing 7 games in a row isn't a sackable offence?

You may be the only person who focuses on that to the exclusion of all else. No attempt at context, just a contrarian point made for the sake of being a contrarian, as far as I can tell.

Talking of context, Maher took the club on when it was hurtling towards the NLS. He stabilised it, took it to a place of comfort and this season despite operating under an embargo took it to within a whisker of the play-offs. If a visiting Blackpool fan can see that is a very decent track record, why can't you?

Why do people expect Tom and Stan to be in the know - they're not owners, I wouldn't expect them to be involved in negotiations. Ton probably involved in putting together a seller's pack of information, and maybe gathering data for any buyers questions - but not sure they'll be involved beyond that

Stan doesn’t need to know, though you would expect him to be kept informed. As CEO Tom has certain legal duties that require being kept fully informed of any major decisions of the owner so that he can fully discharge his responsibilities.

So if he isn’t involved in this process - not the same as having the decision making role - he should have stepped down by now.

Not sure I'd expect Stan to be kept informed unless he has been involved in introducing buyers.

Isn't the major decision at this point that the club is for sale, would Tom need to be informed of the nitty gritty?

And are we expecting Ron to keep people informed - we're told he doesn't tell the other directors anything, hasn't produced accounts etc!

Taking this comment at face value, such an approach is one of the main things wrong with the modern game.

I am thinking that if Kev and Co did not know something that was more or less 100% they would be gone by now , the time to start worrying is the day they all upsticks and go .

Tom's on holiday I believe so that will probably slow things down in any case with regards to any sale. I would imaging Kev and co are just trying to enjoy the little down time they have before everything starts to ramp up again. They know all too well the mantra of only being able to control what they can control. They'll hopefully be enjoying some much needed time with family and recharging their batteries.

I expect very little to happen for the next month. I need to find something else to occupy my time rather than refreshing SZ!

 

[MisterStubbs]

I'd keep maher,but this season he failed and should have made at least the playoffs.

Based on what? The bloke had his hands tied all whilst other teams were strengthening and we were losing key players due to injury.

Had we lost 7 in a row but still made the playoffs and won promotion would you have sacked them?

If not why not- after all we still lost 7 in a row

No as the goal of promotion would have been achieved.

 

[stewart]

Didn't the guy at Brentford lose (or loose) 9 in a row? They don't seem too (or two or to) shabby

Oh losing?

Well done Steve, my troll of the season for the 3rd year in a row. Shame there isn't an award for NL troll of the season as your posts get so many bites.

Keep up the good work as we certainly need some entertainment amongst the 1000 Ron post per week......Which are exact repeat of the previous week.

yep!

Mind you if you'd have been in charge at Man U when Fergie first took over, we'd have possibly been spared their domination of the Premiership.

I think after the 2021/22 season (some) people got carried away and their expectations were unrealistically high.

 

[bazzashrimper]

So I think the answer to the initial question would be… yes
