    The one he has most of his money tied up in.

    when managers were sent off at the weekend they werent allowed to go in the stands
    could that be the same when banned?
    maybe he has to sit in his office and watch it on a feed and communicate by radio or phone?
    was he sat in the stand?

    We find it hard to score goals - not surprising when you see the disparity between the number of shots on goal Norwich and Donny created compared to us!

    I expect an awkward conversation at the very least.

    I’d be a lot more patient if I knew the players backed him 100%. The truth is quite far from that and it’s only a matter of time before Acun starts listening to them.

    "Dont worry Acun, just get me the other 6 players I have personally selected to fit into the 'system' and we'll be top 10 for sure"!!!

    @Howdentiger2 hinted at something similar a page or two back. What’s the inside scoop?

    Exactly. If I wanted success and a football manager style "team to build up in Europe", I'd buy a club in a smaller league and make them dominate domestically. Like TNS, or Linfield, or KI Klaksvik. Then you just bank the money from playing in the qualifying rounds until you build a strong enough team to reach a group stage competition.

    Even in the Europa Conference League, you get just under €3m for reaching the group stage, and then €500,000 per win and €160,000 for a draw.

    The Champions League sees you get €5m for reaching the playoff round, €15m for reaching the group stage alone, and then €2.8m for every win. €900,000 for every draw.

    Where do you think Acun, as a businessman, will see his money back quicker? Tens of millions spent on Hull City, or a few million on Shelbourne?

    I don't think the antics in Turkey went down too well.

    If you look at what was said at Derby when he left then you might be able to apply similar here.

    Acun wants the Premier league. Getting to the qualifying rounds of europe gets you nowt in comparison.
