“It’s a collective effort, we need to make sure the money is right, we need to make sure the progress in terms of where we’re looking to try and take the team is right."
“Equally ,I will always have the final decision on whether I want to sign a player or not. I think that’s vitally important so it’s a collective effort.”

Self serving little spenk. **** him.

Who are we are laughing stock with?
I have mates that are mags, Liverpool, Cardiff and Ipswich fans and they all think we are doing ok
I certainly don't see that. I think that the situation should have been resolved earlier, and that we are at fault for not doing that.
Like most of us, I though Neil had done a really good job here, and he is a decent Championship manager, but that's it. He only has one promotion from this league, and he took over a good side to do it.
He's a decent manager at this level, so is Mowbray. We have not lost Pep or klopp here.
We aren’t , only Stoke us and the skunks really give a monkeys about this.
Funny that I've spoken to a WBA season ticket holder and a Norwich one and they both think AN has **** on us
I think that will be the general consensus from level headed fans.
He HAS **** on us, and we should not have let him.
But again, though we all would have rather this hadn't happened, we haven't lost an irreplaceable talent, and certainly not now that we are actually in the Championship rather than trying to get into it.
He has got himself a good pay rise. But if he doesn't set Stoke alight, both that relative failure and his extremely self serving behaviour in this, will mean his next job might well not be at this level.
We'll be here long after he isn't.
Alex Neil when asked about his time at sunderland and why he left...

Lad from PSG, if he signs will probably sign for the people behind the scenes. Just like when we were scouting N'Dong under Big Sam but signed when Moyes was there.
One of the lads at work, a Mag, said, and I quote "F**ks he went there for? Its not even a side step, it's a backwards step if anything".

that’s the whole point of the current set up. The recruitment team do that stuff. The player signs for the football club. The head coach is just that. One man who should ideally be interchangeable without major upheaval to the whole staff etc and he fits in with the clubs structure, not the other way round. Foreign players are used to this set up and a change of head coach is nothing too dramatic.
