  • Is the COO a position that's vital in running a football club? I ask sincerely as I don't know the structure of a FC. 

  • But in the NHL.....

    Brilliant 
  • New employee doesn’t pass probationary period. Nothing new is it?
    For a c-suite role you would expect probation to be at least 6 months. It will be almost impossible to get rid before then unless it is gross misconduct or a mutual decision.

    It is when it's the most senior non football employee at the club. Jokat isn't an accounts assistant or a trainee in the ticket office

    Fair enough. But if TS isn’t happy with what he’s shown then better to act now right? TS needs someone in charge of operations he can trust. An error is judgement is certainly not uncommon.

     Certainly another indication TS needs a football club man in there with him.

    At no point have I said anything like that. All I have done is point out the  actual non playing recruitment since TS took over.

    We all want him to succeed at running this club, we will all benefit.

    But  its no good just blindly praising when at presant other than saving the club from the crooks we have not yet achieved anything, and we won't if we cannot get the right people into the right roles 2 years down the track.

    Always time to turn it around
    I was being sarcastic, we are going around in circles with the putting the boot in, and the blind support debates. Bored of it now, think we would be better to see what happens and support the team as that’s what we can control.

    Agree we can control what happens at the club, but this is a forum so what else should we do, not post anything until the season starts?
    No sorry, not getting embroiled in the good and bad of Thomas debate, just not doing it!!!!šŸ¤šŸ¤šŸ¤šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«
  • Chorley yes. Please can we stop this madness on MS - he's there to get a free job from Dad. That's fine - stick him somewhere that doesn't really have a massive impact on the club to learn. Get a COO that has proper experience in the sports space. If Jokat wasn't cut for it for whatever reason (and he at least had a relevant CV), why would MS be? 

    Come on.
    I would say he could do less damage as COO than he could in his current role.

    I mean what even is it, its what ever you want it to be. Its basically managing 4 or 5 department heads isn't it?
  • Jokat no longer appears on the staff page on the website which was updated today

    Still happens though

  • We don't know the ins and outs. Maybe he was buying porn channels on the company card in the hotel room, maybe he tried to stick it on Raelynn, maybe he always turned up half an hour late for meeting stinking of booze, maybe he was leaking signings and the news of Garner etc to Cawley, maybe he had a target for a new commercial deal in his first 6 weeks and failed to hit it
  • Sure but with the exception of Bowyer the argument is circular. 

    Either TS brings in competent people then they leave/are sacked pretty swiftly = not a great look or
    TS brings incompetent people in and then they leave/he has to sack them pretty quickly = not a good look. 

    TS has done a lot of good things for us and got a lot right but senior football and non football staff appointments to date have not proven in the medium term to be one of those yet.  Fingers crossed on the footy side the latest ones prove more successful.
    Obviously we all want stability with the right people, but I’d rather he tinkers and decides to change what he thinks isn’t working than let them carry on doing a shit job, it’s the time he doesn’t bother to change things that would potentially be more of a worry as that’s when he decides bollox to it, he obviously cares enough to make things a success.We were moaning when Roland didn’t give a toss, and now there are people moaning that he’s too involved. šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļøBowyer fucked it up for himself I’m afraid, I was eventually relieved he decided to jump ship, and that’s not to say when he was doing well he deserved credit. We seem to have made good steps forward with various recruitments and letting people go this week and there is still the negative element wafting around like one of my bad farts after a dodgy Indian!!!🤢🄵🤣

    All around mine for cream crackers and a bottle of tiger. šŸ˜‰
  • Maybe the director of football Ben Chorley was it, is joining from the Swindon lot
  • Think TS needs to attend a seminar called " The importance of stability in a football club".

    Squeaky b*m time for other staff members at our club ?
