Ever the pessimist Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Carlos says here that Att Chansiri had the final say in his appointment. I am hoping his tongue was in check slightly when giving the interview. Carlos : “After Besiktas and Istanbul BB, my contract with Al Ahli had ended, and I was in negotiations with Glasgow Rangers. I even went to London to talk to them. "During that time, Amadeu (Paixao, a close advisor to Chansiri), contacted me, told me that Sheffield Wednesday were interviewing several coaches and asked me if I’d be interested. “I did the interview, I was chosen and, months later, I came to know that who had the last word on my hiring was… the son of the chairman, who would’d be 10 or 11 years old (laughs). "He had seen some things on the internet, some press releases in Turkey and some games. The purest reality. The decision of a 10-year-old kid opened the door for my life’s challenge! And at that moment, I felt that I was starting my career seriously." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickyTrev Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Just another odd chapter in the increasingly bizarre story of Sheffield Wednesday under Dejphon Chansiri. If there is just an ounce of truth in this story, then it just further confirms my thinking that this club will never progress until there is real change at the top of the club. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoop Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Still fills me with sadness the CC situation. I genuinely thought we had our messiah after that first season. Very disappointed how it all turned out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This story has been doing the rounds since Carlos arrived and no matter how many times people have been told it, they just refuse to believe it.

SallyCinnamon Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) Wouldn’t surprise me Someone on twitter claiming that the Cowleys were interviewed by the chairman’s son. Surely a wind up. Edited April 27, 2020 by SallyCinnamon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
