Shrimpers Trust News Shrimpers Trust Board Zoom Meeting With Stan Collymore

[Paulie Walnuts]

Brilliant Stan, thanks so much for all your efforts so far.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

I must confess to having been a little sceptical, but having been part of that Zoom, he's convinced me. God he likes to talk though! We all had to dash for the loo before carrying on our normal business after he'd gone!

Yep, nobody's perfect, and I think others were put off asking more questions at the end in case he gave a 5 minute answer. Bless him.

Very impressive from Stan and gives us some hope if / when Ron delivers what he needs to do.
My only concern is , PB's reaction to Stan's involvement ( should PB be appointed as Manager and should Stan come on board in some capacity ).
I do see some conflict of interests / egos alone the way - "I'm in charge of that aspect of the club" - "no , that's my domain".
Not trying to be pesamistic , just realistic.
A Manager like PB will only take so much involvement.

Stan hinted that the CEO he recommended had a background in Law...

Would be my guess.

He's a Blues supporter if I recall correctly.

I thought that one of the reasons that Phil gave when things had started to become difficult in his first tenure was when Steve Kavanaugh left. Both Stan and Phil have been involved in bigger clubs with larger structures where responsibilities are divined by the role they play and decisions made around the table in the boardroom. I would think that would be welcomed by all involved.

Funny you should mention him......Paul Fitz had had a message from him - who knows, maybe that is just coincidence!

He was using Stevenage as a grab out of the air example. We are not looking at Stevenage's CEO. I said who it was last week, as somebody else had already let the cat out of the bag.

Maybe he is being hired to challenge our relegation?

That could well be and is what I assumed, but it was an interesting thing to say in someways as people from outside who have not read this board could make assumptions and maybe the CEO of Stevenage could then be in an awkward spot.

I really dont care who it is as long as the club gets it right and we move forward

He actually mentioned him as a Director of football, but as an example. When he said...''From you know...Stevenage'' He's putting his arm in the air showing he's plucked Stevenage out of the air, and he could have said any club as an example. For clarity, here's what he said.

If he discharges some of it and I read in the paper in December that he's got a CEO, and he's decided to have a Director of football, and it's this guy (Throws arm in the air indicating that he's just plucked a club out of thin air) that's come from you know.......Stevenage.......fantastic.

You could be right.
But we could have a CEO , PB and Stan and I just think that going forward they would all need to be happy with clearly defined roles.
My concern is where the lines get blurred.
Anyway , as I said in my post , I sincerely hope it's not an issue.

Yeah i heard all of that and saw it which is why i made the comment. I was just putting it out there. N one knows who it is and if they do on here please share. Ron said the guy Stan mentioned was not emplyed in the zoom call last week i thought the guy at Gillingham was srtill there.

But as I said I do not know, i was just saying I may have misheard him and overall i dont care who it is as long as it is better for the club

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Thanks Stan for all your work behind the scenes,This is the 3rd zoom meeting of yours I've seen recently.But as a Life member of the ST I'd just like to say that the main thing I'd life to hear from SUFC this week is that a new CEO has been appointed and PB has been confirmed as our manager for next season.

I don't wish to pee on anyone's parade, but I think it would be wise to reduce the levels of salivation. The most important word in ' management dream team' is the word dream. So far that's all it is.

"I'm not talking about 'Arry Redknapp I'm talking about people that are relevant"

I ****ing love you Stan.

 

[Fairport]

When Stan was talking about possible managers I think the name Anton came up. Is Anton Ferdinand in the running?
