Football Department Review

I think 6 is directed at me, but a few others ring true to what i've been saying as well.

I think there is one that isn't really covered, which i've suggested as well.

Just because we are having a review, it doesn't mean its going to work. It may make things worse. We may cut the wrong guy. For all we know, Barker was the wrong guy. He may have been the glue holding everything together. He may have been the mediator.

Whatever happens from here is going to get a different picture of what its been like over the past 18 months. Now people are going to be doing differernt roles, covering for Barker, and after only 2 weeks of doing that, a routine and/or stress levels are yet to be found. Any review based on this state of flux will most likely be an inaccurate one.

One thing worth noting was from the PaulPs article was that in each major independent review in recent history, the GM of football has gone. As best as i can tell that is Brad Lloyd. Given Matthew Lloyds new found knowledge of how all things Carlton seem to be going, i'd suggest Brads job is very much on the line.....and rightly so.....despite Matthew Lloyds protesting.

Going to be hard to review Lloyd properly with Liddle providing cover, same with the other member of the trinity in Agresta. With Liddle overseeing proceedings with Sayers it isn't truly Independent and as you say it doesn't mean a Review is the magic wand for success.
