Paul Barber - CEO of the Year

[fat old seagull]

I'd have been surprised if he hadn't won it. Top man, and along with Mr Tony and CH of course, the engine behind our improvement.
Well done Mr B, and many thanks for your input.

This news more than makes up for us not getting promoted.

Really should know better than to feed a troll, but, I'll bite...

1. Barber is 'running the club' in so far as he is the man at the top. He's universally lauded as being very good at this job.

2. In what respect do you consider him to not be 'a football man'? Along with being well qualified for his actual role, he has an entire career's experience in the football industry.

3. Oh, you mean understanding of the actual game? Well, he also has all his coaching badges.

4. Genuinely, who did you have in mind, to run a football BUSINESS, with an eight figure budget? Kerry Mayo? Gary Hart?

Sorry Paul

Lame

On a side note, what the hell was that Ian Ritchie doing on the shortlist? The very definition of a buffoon.

Almost 'thumbs upped' this for the comedy aspect. Then it hit me - not comedy, just bitter. Possibly. Not sure. So no thumbs up. Not sure if you're having a dig at the OP or Barber . . . ambiguity . . . not sure how to react

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

The only measure of SUCCESS is on the pitch and so last season rates as a FAILURE for EVERYONE including Barber

Don't be an idiot. Stick to the funny stuff.

FFS.

So great he didn't get Hughton a decent striker in January.

So great that the team that got us to a whisker of the premier league were the joint top scorers in the division !!

I'm always 100% serious Harry

Anyone know if Groupon's vote on the night went to Mr Barber for this prodigious industry award?
