We are well clear of P&S based on my calculations and the current trajectory. As I said before, I think our football specific wage bill no more than £21-22m this season and the worst loss years are drifting away. Oh and £2.5m rise in TV money and the same again in the 3 year rolling. Not fully sold on Scudamore as CEO however, as head of the PL that is a different type of role to running a football club.

Including yourself then, because the “crayons” thing isn’t about intelligence, it’s about JL prioritising frivolous artistic ideas (the Comic Sans font training gear, new badge & Onyego) over impactful decision making. 13 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest there is a certain lack of realism on the part of the hierarchy given the Championship environment.. Putting aside the wish list in the thread, we can't and won't progress if looking to swim vs the tide in the current financial climate. We might tread water, that is a trade-off we will sadly need to accept until there is a change of ownership or mindset of the present ownership.

Mr Popodopolous Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Just now, Davefevs said: It’s all fanciful….aint gonna happen is it….but a nice idea. Oh yes. Right now with City I do tend to drift into what could and should be..rather than the depressing reality! Just feels like we are rudderless, unrealistic at a strategic (ie board and DoF) level- could go on. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you lazily assume your idol is more intelligent than pretty much everyone on a forum….you sound like the type of person who believes all football fans are knuckle-dragging hooligans. I think you’re giving Jon more credit than he deserves……he has generally never worked anywhere where his father wasn't the boss and there have been comments in the past from people that worked with or for him that have been less than complimentary about his ‘skills’ ‘Crayon boy’ is just a nickname that suits Jon as explained by Phileas….a bit like me calling you Tim Mona-lot oh….and I have never watched Mrs Browns Boys 6 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not about life he isn't, or if he is, he's forgotten it all. I do agree about the 'crayon' thing being a bit childish, but the bloke is a buffoon that spouts 98% horseshit because he doesn't have the 'intelligence' to remember the horseshit he has spouted previously. What is tiresome is your unfathomable defence of him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked with PhD's in senior roles who had no strategic, leadership, people or communication skills. I see little evidence Jon has any of those skills to the required level regardless of whatever qualifications he may have. On the other hand the most outstanding CEO I worked for had no degrees and started out as a casual in the most junior role. He had all the skills in spades.
