They weren't responsible for recruiting Conlon, Sachdev, Walker, Langley, Hammond, Garner or Dallas. Only Garner of those anything like a success I think? Unlucky with Stones although it seemed clear he came with risks attached.
I can understand this with Premier League players who are richer than Croesus. If this lot can't cut it at this level they're stacking shelves at Aldi for a living.
Interested in what sort of finance they are offering. After the last lot managed to lose the required FCA registration, via spectacular incompetence, I did offer to do the work to get it back but never got a reply.
It's just how it is. Most of these clubs built up their hardcore support when they were playing regional football and they could be back home in an hour or so. They're not suddenly going to find hundreds of people who fancy a 450 mile round trip on a Tuesday night.
Not a subject I'll be very voluble or controversial about given I work for what is essentially an Israeli firm but I do like a good dose of irony and I reckon the Rochdale by-election pretty much redefined it.
So, the Labour Party has had all sorts of problems with anti-semitism (I'm naive; until that popped into view a few years ago I was unfamiliar with the subject from a left-wing perspective) and clearly hasn't rooted the issue out yet based on the comments of their erstwhile candidate. But the Moslem community are clearly a significant bloc in local politics there and Galloway won the seat by, in large part, playing to them. Who knows, maybe there was broad agreement with the Labour candidate's public view?
Whatever the truth of that and whatever other factors may or may not be involved it absolutely needs rooting out wherever it shows its face.
And that's it from me on politics!
