Popular Post Stevo985 Posted March 22, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2016 I love the Football Board idea. To me that's Hollis acknowledging his lack of Football experience and expertise. He's got the football men in to run that part of the business, and he stays on the normal board to oversee the rest of it. I think that's very clever. Whether it works or not is a whole other question, but I like the the idea of it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PussEKatt Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Well,since he came in the place is a lot more positive ( except on the pitch ) than it was before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villanwesty88 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 It doesn't seem likely that Lerner will sell the club given the value plummeting with our near Championship status. So with that in mind I think things off the field are shaping up the best that they can. We are laying the foundations nicely with time for them to settle in and assess how screwed we are before the summer. This gives me hope that come August we will be in a better place to make it happen on the field. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaCas Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hard to buy into the positivity! We are heading to the Championship with the worst squad in memory. Hardly "shaping up the best that they can" Some people are easily pleased - don't tell me, show me! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 If Hollis brings in Moyes that would be avery good decision and makes me put abit more faith in him. he has started well but needs to continue this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I fear all these lovely ideas of football men and Premier League experienced managers will all fall flat for the same reason they always do. Randolph. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randolph. Absolutely. That's the ultimate fear. if everybody is still dancing to Lerner's tune then nothing will change. Doesn't stop the idea being right though. It's the execution that will matter the most. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I think there will be some fall outs if Krulak is ever in that board room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, Hollis' decisions on the face of it all make perfect sense. I just fear that no amount of smart decisions are going to help if we have a puppet government.

ferguson1 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 It appears to have been a good start from Hollis but the proof of how good his ideas and implementation of plans are will surely be our next couple of transfer windows! Just hope Krulak isn't too much of a hindrance to him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PussEKatt Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hollis has some good ideas BUT tbh its all to do with $$$.Its money that keeps clubs in the Premier League ( we are going out of it from lack of money ) its money that keeps clubs at the top of the Premier League and if we dont get enough of it from Lerner then we will stay in the Championship or become a yoyo club.

I was more referring to the footballing board being totally separate from the main board, and Hollis making that distinction clear, and keeping himself off it to address the fans' concerns that he lacks footballing experience. That's the clever bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like this season has kind of tested that theory somewhat. Obviously it's how you spend the money that matters but clearly if you have a unified, motivated and organised squad - regardless of how much it cost to assemble - you can achieve anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
