Football Department Review

Ah, the world of mixed messages... or should I say, mixed assumptions.

The media is having a field day with this, with opinions flying about all over the place. Opinions based on rumour and speculation.

Very impressed that the club is sticking with its process/agenda/timing and not jumping about trying to respond to the media's agenda/pressure & sensational needs.

Personally more than happy to wait until things actually happen rather than speculate, 2nd guess and jump at shadows.

Major change takes time and though unfortunate, even sad, there will be casualties and they won't be happy.

Ross Lyon appoints himself coach in the media (CFC says nothing).  Media decides Lyon not suitable for a few reasons (CFC says nothing).  CFC gets skewered for changing its mind and hanging Ross out to dry.    Media has no idea what is going on behind closed doors, but that hasnt stopped everyone assuming every thing they say is correct, and potting the Board because of it.

I actually think they have done a good job of a) sticking to the plan and b) not leaking
