In fairness if he does well and attracts interest from ‘bigger clubs’ then it’s going to be tough. Got to make him feel loved and that he can achieve things here. If he does well, the fans will want him. If he leaves without a job to go to...because of differences, then I can imagine the fan base will be asking many questions. If it's down to recruitment... we'll know the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daored Posted February 23, 2021 Report Share Posted February 23, 2021 Was Jordan once punched at our ground? I’m sure I’ve heard he was having a cigarette at half time in the play off game and was smacked by someone ? As a pundit I like Jordan, very knowledgeable about the game. Could do worse than get him in on a short term contract to review the club from top to bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been more than pleasantly surprised at listening to him talking a lot of sense on TS. Doesn't he show up a lot of the ex pros (and Jim White) with his thinking and ability to dissect and analyse issues? If it weren't for the fact that AG is not big enough for his and SL's egos, I reckon he would be ideal as a chief exec. Can you imagine him working with Pearson? SJ clearly admires Pearson as a football manager but noted that he (Pearson) needs to be handled ‘carefully’ and you’re spot on that he and SL are too similar to get along. I can’t imagine SJ working for anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt know Jordan was threatened. https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/bristol-city-mob-abused-me-says-simon-jordan-6636686.html Quote Angry Simon Jordan claims he was abused by a mob of Bristol City fans who called him "a poof" during Crystal Palace's controversial play-off semi-final defeat at Ashton Gate on Tuesday. The Palace chairman went outside the stadium at half-time to smoke a cigarette when he was confronted. "I was called every name under the sun by hundreds of morons outside the ground," said Jordan. "They called me a poof, they called me orange and plenty of other insults that you could not print in a newspaper. They were being particularly vitriolic, but I just kept my head down. What can you do? They are morons." The Football Association are investigating the chaos at full-time, when Palace boss Neil Warnock claimed he was punched during a pitch invasion. "I saw the scenes and they were disgraceful," said Jordan, whose side lost 2-1 to go out 4-2 on aggregate. "No one should ever be attacked in any walk of life."

He's spent five years effectively treading water. SL has been known to say one thing and do the other! I'm not so sure...I really do think he will put his system of sustainability first. Making money is just as important as the playing side. Hence MA's involvement. The last time we had a manager demanding certain players and money, Pelling walked. I too feel the system needs to change for it to work. A budget should be given, and the manager chooses the players within that budget. Not...we are going to buy players within our budget, but they also have to have a sell on value. That only works so far. MA's job should be budget and negotiating contracts and selling players at a profit. He should have no influence in recruitment. At the moment he's juggling two balls. Trying to find players that will win games...but they also have to have a sell on value, where he can make profit. Ticking two boxes. SL isn't going to let any manager lose us money so to speak. He wants sustainability as much as promotion imo. He'd have to change tact otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
