In reply to: Same Old Story 's message, "I thought that overall - its noticeable how tough the whole thing looks this season. I'm a bit concerned at the start as we could end up in a bottom 5 battle by the end of October and we all know how difficult they are to pull away from once you're in. Serious work to do with the squad if the club want to stand still. Also highlights what a missed opportunity last year was." on Wednesday, June 18, 10:01:52am

Yes, we mustn't hang about -- full agreement. However, specifically on TK....if he remains a crucial figure but of touch and non-working in Cannes (as you presumably imply) then terrible -- boo, hiss. If perchance no longer such a crucial figure in reality then I'd consider 1.5 or even 2 cheers. If (as guessed likelier) still crucial, but actually working in Cannes, then digital communications ensure no difference, except for a slight bonus of being in a BST+1 timezone instead of minus 4 or 5.

- For me regardless of whether his role is active or inactive, as a DoF he should be urging those responsible to deliver the Plan to Silva as quickly and efficiently as possible . Most DoFs now are both full -time and on-site: he is Not yet some tolerate this for obvious reasons . The thought of Silva yet again bemoaning the paucity of the squad at pre-season imho is a real possibility (NT) -- Mickey, Wednesday, June 18, 01:57:15pm (host109-155-85-130.range109-155.btcentralplus.com/109.155.85.130)
  - Your first sentence = we shouldn't hang about. Yes. Last summer was reportedly the first for years we were at the average of player arrival times, even slightly in advance. Same again sought. As for geography, the close season, at least pre-training, is actually the time when the literal presence of a DOF matters least. But hard work definitely needed in this period. While players are vacationing, our recruitment staff at all levels should be busy. Phone, email, Zooms, and repeat.

    - No doubt Silva will have been taken through the various spreadsheets setting out how much is available on transfer fees in a variety of different incoming and outgoing scenarios – all within FFP/PSR restrictions. He will also no doubt be given the data about historic pricing outcomes at beginning v end of the transfer window. Then there will be the tension between fewer ins coming in early or more ins coming in late. It’s a juggling act – difficult to get right all the time (NT) -- f bloke, Wednesday, June 18, 03:59:02pm (NoHost/90.199.253.116)
      - As you say. (Timing-wise they did better than usual last summer, while spending less effectively than for a while. Don't think the two were connected though). (NT) -- b+w g., Wednesday, June 18, 04:14:57pm (68.52.159.143.dyn.plus.net/143.159.52.68)
