modboy Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Roeder seems like a right oddball on the YouTube video he reminds me of myself when trying to speak in a foreign language. Maybe he speaks thai usually these days Anyone got a link to the interviews? Bit late to the party and skimmed this thread on my phone so probably missed em. Packet of biscuits of your choice to whoever provides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miffed Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Typical Owlstalk... Resisting change and fearful of doing things differently. Some people really still don't get it do they? Because on Champ Manager (or whatever its called these days) its just one player sat behind a keyboard and mouse, in control of everything. This is the tried and tested method of getting Wednesday promoted to the Premier League and winning the treble year on year. So this crazy method that Wednesday have dreamed up is never going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOwl Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Dejphon still not feeling confident enough to speak English in these press conferences, but generally seems to have an excellent grasp of understanding everything that's being said to him. Always looks like he's trying not to smile either when being asked questions. Don't worry mate, we know you're having a blast And is it me, or does Roeder have scary eyes??

Utah Owl Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 When Milan sold, he said that DC was serious and would tackle the situation in a financially aggressive way. Today's appointments back that to the hilt and are a real statement of intent. Really looking forward to the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Sure it's been asked, but I really don't see where PA fits into all this. From the outside looking in, my impression is that Aldridge has done an outstanding job. Pearson seems to be the one who will negotiate both transfers and wages, which I understood to be Aldridge's job, amongst others. Wouldn't surprise me at all if PA left in the summer, 'by mutual consent' and ended up wherever Milan ends up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I agree, I see Pearson and Aldridge doing the same kind of job. PA will go at the end of the season I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Furthermore, is Pearson on the books 'full time', or purely as an 'as and when'. He still owns a rugby club, which I'm sure takes up a lot of his time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirpyowl Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Roeder's job description seems to be that of a glorified chief scout. We've been weak in this area since Allen dismantled the scouting network to cut costs, including laying off Eustace. So this seems like a huge step forward.

Arthur Bach Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 All this talk about Roeder being a c**t. I hope he is. It's what we need. It's what we have been lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djstatic Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Time will tell on these appointments, and the structure of the club going forward. Gut feeling is that too many cooks spoil the broth, but top European clubs work in this way, so this system must have loads of positives. That said, and whichever way you look at it, we've been out of the Premier League for the last 16 seasons, so whatever we've done in the last 16 season hasn't worked. A definition of madness is doing exactly the same thing, over and over again, and expecting different results. I agree Vulva. It's different but quite common in Germany and Portugal. I really like Pearson, looks like an intelligent man. Roeder will basically have the role of chief scout. I definitely see the news today as a massive positive step. And more importantly Gray seems to have been given the nod for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I get the impression all three of them will agree signings. That's the only bit I see a potential problem with. Roeder should still be answering to the guy who picks the team IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelowl Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 havent read this thread 18 pages looks daunting my immediate view on this committee is they generally don't work in business imo someone has to take the lead The role seems to upset and unsettle egotistical managers and the likes of GM would probably walk except in this situation SG doesnt seem to me to like or aspire to the limelight so who knows this could work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
