Problem is we have sold good players and replaced them with absolute dross.
Unarguably so.
Ling ain't allowed to manage.
Bit early to say that. We've already gone 2 up top. Its obvious the "style" thing has been drilled into him but I think its a bit early to say he's not allowed to manage.
Its really difficult to know if he has limited influence (as most of us suspect), or whether change is limited by the the players available
Powers business model is floored.
Yes and no.
Last year, if what we were told was true was in fact true, we must have made a profit. I am sure we were told/could derive that Louis going to Norwich made us hit break even. Subsequent sales must have made us profitable, though we owed Power money so that's probably why we didn't see the investment we thought we might.
This year is a disaster. I am not sure where the player sales will come from to plug any financial gaps-- maybe Kasim but his stock is decreasing every game. So we have to hope we really are running at break-even. I have my doubts given the Ajose signing and Thomas loan.
Power needs to give the finances in a full and transparent manner before I'm convinced mind.
As a business its working thus far, as far as we know. As a playing model the jury is very much out.
