Forward planning, making decisions, it is basic business. Just as it is basic business to be on the front foot
Talks...
Sisu: Tony, we'll give you £20 a week.
Mowbray: Bugger off.
Sisu: Okay, we'll give you £20 a week plus some new shoe laces.
Mowbray: Bugger off.
Sisu: We love your no nonsense style Mowsy! £25 a week every third week of the month.
Mowbray: Bugger off.
This will carry on for weeks until Sisu give him what he wants or he walks.
Timing of the negotiations:
TM explaining everything wrong with the club - 1 day
TM explaining what he wants to change - 1/2 day
SISU asking for clarification 1/2 day
SISU decision-making 1 1/2 days
SISU saying 'No' to every request - 1/2 day
SISU deciding how to spin news to the supporters - 1 day
Total time = 5 days
Maybe that is one thing on TM's agenda - the lack of forward planning?
As for the speed of progress, once TM and SISU have agreed terms, the lawyers have to get involved and translate that to legal contracts. Until then it is 'agreed in principle only'.
Lets assume hypothetically that TM asks for £20 million ( remember its hypothetical) and Sisu within their own budget can only afford or appease their board that the maximum they could raise/muster is £2 million the 2 parties are miles apart, so talks continue. TM is not happy with the amount being given to build a new structure/team so with reluctance he has to walk... Do we blame Sisu or TM...? Obviously there is a limit that the club can procure but there is going to be compromise...TM has played a good game so far PR wise saying all the right things and so far Sisu have played a very bad game...trusting managers etc with funds that appear to have been wasted and not progressed but regressed us...If its in the best interests of CCFC as a club/team I am prepared to wait.. TM seems to be the right man atm but we all know from bitter experience how quickly a saviour can turn to a despised figure... Lets let the owners take their turn and get the right man on board NOW !!
“I’m not asking her to invest any more money, I’m asking her to allow me to divert the money to where I want it diverted to. I’ll not be standing there demanding more money, I’ll be saying, ‘allow me to re-direct it where I think it’s important for the club'.”
promising statement as it sounds like they know the fans wont be happy if we dont retain mowbray
