Swann probably thinks he goes through so many managers he may as well buy who he wants but that has to change and we’ll have to hope Cox gets his targets – but he and Jem are miles away from the Chairman in thinking (funny that – two ex prem footballers v not football)
Far be it for me to side with Swann in these matters but I actually think that having some sort of club strategy for signings is the right way to go. You can’t be overhauling the squad every season when you change the manager, there needs to be some sort of common thread. Of course, these things have to be balanced and managers should feel like they have the tools to do their jobs but they shouldn’t have sole/final say on signings.
