hasthagotanycheese Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Mandaric would have quite happily sold us to Mammadov before that blew up in his face. His sole purpose was to enrich himself from his project at S6, in much the same way that a developer will buy a derelict house in a good location in order to flip it for a quick profit. All that baloney about the club being in his heart was just to keep the fans onside during his tenure. However, he bears no responsibility for the subsequent clusterphuck that Chansiri has made of the job. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mess that Chansiri has created is nothing to do with him. He couldn't have possibly foreseen how things would play out. 5 minutes ago, hasthagotanycheese said: Mandaric would have quite happily sold us to Mammadov before that blew up in his face.

I'm sure I read somewhere that they were but not completely sure what I read at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't recall any direct links either. Had a quick search and couldn't fin anything but did find this article. Not directly related to us but does reference Mandaric's sale of Leicester to a group that could be linked to Doyen at the time and also talks about how Doyen worked. http://www.futbolgrad.com/ianis-hagi-mysterious-transfer-to-fiorentina/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashley8 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 If his comment was about us then he can't be any good as isn't it that all the owners expect results but very few give a manager any licence to do their job or choose players...... That's a big part of the modern problem with football.... Our problem seems to be our owner may do this more than most and has little knowledge and either ignores advice or gets very bad advice...... Also if your and advisor he will expect results from you...... Though Paxo still involved....... Though is that because the has money in the club.....? Bruce said he would have to work with him that he had no choice and he seems to be the only manager under Chansiri who managed to carve out a bit of say before he agreed to sign.

There’s only one problem and that is chansiri won’t let him. He seems to not trust anyone after been poorly advised by amadeu the fast Amadeu goes the better. But does Chansiri know he's been poorly advised by Amadeu? If he knows he's been poorly advised why is Amadeu still around the club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwë Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 On Alonso, Chansiri told The Star last month: “He has worked with me for a while now. He started helping me with regards to selling players, and with commercial things. He’s just one of the advisors, nothing special. “He’s one of my advisors, as well as Amadeu.” - Sheffield Star (https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/david-downes-amadeu-paixao-piecing-together-how-transfers-work-sheffield-wednesday-3102603%3famp) (a good article by the way, offers a deeper glimpse into recruitment at Wednesday than just Paxo). So how many players have we sold in the past year thanks to Alonso? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
