BR Leaves Club

[RoyalBlue]

Make of this what you will, Brendan Rodgers asked for funds to improve the squad in January but was told he will have to raise it himself by selling players. Kebe, Matejovsky and Long were to be sold to fund these replacements. Hammond disagreed (particularily on the valuations) which left BR in an unteniable position as he was effectively overruled. The conflict has come between the role of director of football and the manager with too many conflicts of interest. Madejski makes the final decision but pays people to help him make these decsions, remember he is not a football man but has the ear of people like nick hammond and Brian McDormott who constantly "advise" on what course of action to take. Nick Hammond is a 'yes man' and justifys his role to ensure that he ontinues to earn his very good salary.

Hi Brendan,

Hope you have an enjoyable family Xmas.


"Madejski is not a football man"? are you suggesting that he can't have learned a thing or two over the last 20 years?
Lots of Love
Stranded.

Judging my his ridiculous comments about the strength of our squad, he has learned precious little!

Is this the squad that Rodgers spent half of his time here saying could put a run together and get to the play offs?

...or, earlier on in the season, would gain automatic promotion?

Rodgers Quote .....
"We had had some bad results, but we were progressing. It always felt like I was being told to rebuild and given the confidence to do that.

In other words Egoman and Grapefeeder were saying - "Brendan catch this falling knife!"

And just who could we buy for £3.75 and a couple of Euros????

Dream on. If we could offload Kebe on a free it would be a bargain ... for RFC.
