I agree not really Darnborough's job to be very visible but given how much flack he gets maybe just knowing a bit more about him and how he operates might help him. People make a lot of assumptions about him, most of them negative.
The refreshing thing about this to me is that the singings seem to be mcCann signings and not just players given to him
The mail said hes both a centre back and left back, if they are wrong then I apologise for saying he was.
I think McCann will have had a significant contribution to these signings. A lot of the players we’ve signed are familiar to our coaching set up. Our keeper coach knew Ingram. McCann knew Eaves from playing against Gillingham with Doncaster, managed Tafazolli at Peterborough and McCann previously wanted to sign this lad at Cork when he was at Doncaster. I’m not sure we can give any credit whatsoever to Darnbrough. Except possibly not ****ing up these signings. McCann has obviously had promises made as we even paid Doncaster compensation to bring him here.
He can cover there, but he’s a centre back by trade and as OLM said, he’d look like a centre half playing full back.
Losing Bowen will be like having a knee replacement. The cynic in me keeps saying you only get what you pay for but the new gaffa needs time and the fans need to patient ...again.
To be fair, I don't think they would add it. The (alleged) £50 mill is the amount they reckon they are still owed. Nothing whatsoever to do with a valuation of the club, the squad, assets, whatever. They (allegedly) just want their (alleged) outstanding debt repaying. Hence the hope that Harry moves, and then (with a heavy heart) we sell Bowen and maybe Grosicki, then the (alleged) debt falls to around £25 million and the club then becomes sufficiently attractive to finally allow the sale they (allegedly) want and we want. Lot's of alleged's in there. But no reason to disbelieve any of it. After all, the Allams are men of their word, and they never, ever go back on their word. .
If they don’t sell anyone and invest in the team, the club will be worth more and more attractive to buyers, therefore more likely to be sold sooner.
