Football Department Review

[PaulP]

Bolton busted his nut trying to achieve unity and create a Hawthorn-like culture. He may end up feeling pretty vindicated when all this is done.

EB, that was my way of saying I agree with you.

Paul, Always happy to share my biased opinions with you and even happier when you agree...?

Of course it's very early days, even before the review has started, but from the rumblings and rumours, it seems like a whole bunch of cliques with no unity and no control at the top.

Should never have gave a nice guy and former player like Teague the job, it's heartbreaking when we sack them.

Need to hire a prick like Brad Scott where we don't care what happens in the end it's just business.

Lol. I share my biased opinions with anything that moves.

PP....in any big business, as soon as there's rumblings and division between leaders etc, someone's job becomes untenable. And history shows it's usually the senior coach that gets the @rse....it's a lot easier to move one bloke on than it is half a dozen or so who don't/can't work with him....especially if they're "senior players".

If they have already decided that Teague is not the man then they should part ways now and let Worsfold take over till they find their man. No point in dragging this on for the rest of the year.

No doubt that's true, but the key phrase in your post is "it's a lot easier to move one bloke". Not the correct solution, not the potentially hard but fair and correct solution, just the easier solution. And there's the problem right there.

Yep I wasn't saying it's right or fair......it's just usually what DOES happen.

Yes, no doubt, but you won't solve problems that way, unless you get lucky.
