Does it matter either way? So long as the manager has the say in who we purchase, then it's all good. It's not like the BEST holidings idea where we would get sent players by them and the Manager had to select a team from them.
Spencer is Di Canio's agent/business manager anyway, it's up to Di Canio who he uses for the paperwrok of his role.
Ryder was pretty poor it would seem, living on the back of finding the guy at Wolves who hasn't really delivered as much as was expected either.

not sure what you mean
What does that have to do with Commazzi, goalie, De Vita, Brazilian etc.
He means that when the same agent pops up in high % of our deals does it not make you wonder if there is more going on? |

OK......
In what way does Phil Spencer have more influence than he should have?

No, it doesn't make me think there's more going on at all. It makes me thing he is an agent who has recommended a few players, which is what agents are prone to do is it not? If he was our only agent, I'd be concerned, but clearly he isn't. |

Not a direct answer to your question, but it has struck me as odd that Spencer should be present at the top table during press conferences, almost like he is part of the decision making process. |

I dont work at the club so dont have a fucking clue who is recommending who and what to who and what.
Neither do any of you.
In conclusion, we all know fuck all
The End.

Are agents not usually present?

I think Spencer is part of it due to his relationship with Di Canio, that doesn't worry me as such. If Di Canio is too weak to have an opinion on players, that would.

He knows what we're after and what we're willing to pay, but acts on behalf of the player.
Too much power.

That's fine and its probably all that's happening. If it weren't for Knight's involvement I'd never have thought it was anything more in the first place! Everything will settle down on here once we sign a few more players  |

Only if their own players are involved. Hence I have no problem with him being there for Di Canio's unveiling, but why was he there the day that Timlin re-signed? |

That's exactly what all agents do. Too much power how exactly, does he make any decisions? |

He's right in as much as admitting that he doesn't have a clue...
