Apparently Tan refused to go round to Acun’s place and build all the flat pack Ikea furniture he’d ordered, and it all blew up from that. Purely a rumour from a questionable source, but it’s got legs, just like the frötorp coffee table that’s still sitting in a box in Acuns front room.
It's good to know the club will always be transparent with its fans. At least we know why he left and what the future plan is to fill the important roll. Thanks a lot for that!
You missed "wherever possible" from your "quote". And the reported future plan is to restructure internally and not seek an external replacement, but let's not let get that in the way of indignation eh?
Wonder who internally is considered good enough to fill that position. And, if they are, what are they doing here in a more minor role instead of doing a higher grade job elsewhere?
Not everyone is capable of doing a job above what they are doing. Do Liverpool, Man Utd etc always promote from within?
What was Tan's actual role?What did he do day to day? Enlighten me. We have a head of recruitment and Acun already said Beri Pardo is Director of Football, so beyond being a figurehead working as a go- between Acun Medya and the footballing investments what did he do at City day to day that's so senior it cant covered by mere mortals in existing roles? Ultimately it's down to the owner whether he believes he has the human resources he needs internally, or do you know better?
Better go to the next Q&A and ask rather than make assumptions you're not in a position to make. If the owner felt he needed to recruit a replacement externally, don't you think he would?
You are making assumptions. Be interesting to see who he replaces him with and what, if anything, they bring to the table. Though, even though he came across well, not too sure what Tan brought.
It's already been reported that there are no plans currently for an external replacement and the role will be covered via an internal reshuffle, as has previously been stated both here and HDM. That's not an assumption.thats based on reports.
I know. I said it will be interesting to see who he appoints and what they bring to the table or do differently or better than Tan. Though, as I said in the previous post, I am not too sure what Tan did exactly.
