There’s nothing like the summer window to start winding fans up and we can expect much the same this time around.
It’s clear David Moyes has plenty of work in front of him and has already taken plenty of stick for his refusal to bring anybody in the winter.
Those he has earlier – Nikola Vlasic at 27 million and loanee Alex Kral – have proved poor so far but in fairness Craig Dawson at £3 million was a masterstroke and Kurt Zouma was a very good buy.
What’s clear is that the manager now has his hands firmly on who is and isn’t signed and the days of GSB control are now behind us with the arrival of Daniel Kretinsky. The GSB out days are history!
No doubt there are those who would want to maintain their moan ups against the old regime but the reality now is that with nobody having 51 per cent of the shares all decisions will be voted on.
And remembering that Kretinsky is the director who could be advancing loans to the club is he likely to do that if he doesn’t fancy a particular player.
Old prejudices are now firmly outdated and with the club under a new regime we are looking at a more stable club with Europe on its mind.
A good old moan up I suppose is always enjoyable however pointless!
“ And remembering that Kretinsky is the director who could be advancing loans to the club is he likely to do that if he doesn’t fancy a particular player.“
This worries me greatly. I thought our future recruitment was going to be founded upon professional recommendations and not the whims and opinions of directors who want to play premier football manager.
They talk to Moyes and decide on a vote what thery are ready to go to and how much 0 all clubs do the same 0 they vote
Surely it’s a bit naive to say “everything will now be voted on”. It always has been and always will be. Kretinsky coming on board hasn’t really changed anything. The combined shareholdings of Sullivan and Gold outvote Kretinsky.
What HAS changed is that there is now no MAJORITY shareholder. Whether this makes any difference to the direction the club will now take renmains to be seen.
If the majority shareholder wanted something he got it and you are assuming Gold will and has never voted against Ds which is certainly not the case whatever you wish to believe+. It suggests he has poured millions into the club to have no say other than Sullivan’s and that truly is a naive belief
