At my 50th birthday party, the regulars at my local pub had clubbed together and bought me the kit sponsorship for your first season at the Albion. No-one had heard of you and the guy who made the presentation to me thought it was for Michelle Pfeiffer! (I wish!) Seriously, it was a privilege...

I agree...but going round and round in circles for 44 pages and still being none the wiser than on page 1...?

NSC at its best! 43 pages of assumptions, suppositions and guesswork based on little or no knowledge of any hard facts!

No expectations, but high hopes laced with a lot of realism. We'll make signings to improve the squad but other clubs will do that too! Some good teams have been relegated and promoted into our division so just to maintain our finishing position of last season will be a good effort. An...

Only on NSC ... The man hasn't even started the job yet and already he's going to put up prices, sack coaches, fall out with Gus, be abrasive, arrogant and dismissive, etc!! Some of you must have a very low opinion of Tony, Derek Chapman, et al for making such a poor appointment!

Doesn't mean he'll have such powers with us, does it? His job description at the Albion could very well differ significantly from that at Vancouver.

Post 122 gives the job description. And it clearly says that the Chairman "will retain lead responsibility for all Player transactions and Management / Coaching appointments."

I agree that it might be interesting to know, but you said the club had done a 'poor job' and I totally disagree with that. In my view, contractual agreements are purely a matter for the employer and employee and if they choose not to make that information public that is their right. It won't...

... and a few right wing ones!

The Role The Chief Executive will be a Director of the Club and will report directly to the Chairman, Tony Bloom. With prime responsibility for all operational and commercial functions of the organization and working closely with the Chairman who will retain lead responsibility for all Player...

And just to get his title correct - he is the CEO.

I think the club can decide what's in its own best interests and I'm sure that they are not in least bit concerned about speculation. If there is an embargo on the release of the information, there'll be a good reason for it.

Sorry, I didn't know we were recruiting for both positions. The only ad I'd seen was for CEO.

What's the problem? The club has no obligation to release the information until they want to. Maybe there's an agreement with the new CEO and the organistion he previously worked for to not announce this until a certain date. What difference does it make if we know today, tomorrow, next week...

I understand the Becks bit but not your second point. Why should they be banned?

For greatest in terms of what it meant to the club it has to be Reinelt's. But alongside that I'd put Storer's against Doncaster. Without that Robbie's goal would have been academic .... and it was our last goal at The Goldstone.

What about the hugely-paid footballers of other countries?

Spot on! How many on here really know what transfer fees, agents fees, signing-on fees, and wages are paid? Why bother to guess at figures and then form opinions on them?

So this thuggery can be described as entertaining, a highlight, and outstanding? I'm glad I don't inhabit your football world.
