Can’t see Hill taking any notice whatsoever of our cygnet scout, if players are forced on him I expect he would just walk away.
Before Hill even accepted this role, he met Swann and stated what he had to have “meaning near complete control”. I remember listening to an interview from Hill soon after he signed, saying just that.
Hill wouldn’t have come in the first place if all this wasn’t ironed out from the start. One thing he isn’t is somebody who can be ignored or made a fool of.
Hill will know the players we want and will have ear marked some already. I remember him saying after he was sacked at Bolton he was still out and about looking at players ready for getting another job elsewhere.
Hill stated he had made many contacts in the game through his time managing. Trust me, he’ll know lower league players.
Do you really think he’ll allow us to sign another Turan/Jarvis ?.
