Goes against the general consensus between fans that bad recruitment is down to him

I couldn't believe what I'd heard, if I'd had a few beers I'd have sworn I’d mis-heard it but there it is. Gouranga.

I didn't think it made a whole lot of sense if I'm honest. Why would they sack Hughes and then allow the manager's who followed him to continue with the same policy, if it had been such a failure? Wouldn't they simply have reverted to how it was in the beginning of Hughes' successful tenure?

Lawrence left the club a full three years before ‘the process’ was a thing.

If that is the case, why haven't they taken control back after hughes and only allowed Rowett and NJ to spend more on worse? If that is the facts, they should be held accountable (ie. scholes as carts is gone) for negligence.

For sure but I didn't think that Liam's story actually stacked up, if you think it through.

It was also interesting to hear him ask how long he had as if he wanted to go into a lot more detail. Gouranga.

He said it came from within the club from someone he trusted. Terry Conroy has also said exactly the same thing. The fact of the matter is our last three managers if you exclude Paul Lambert have wasted a shed load of money on shit players.

Goes against the general consensus between fans that bad recruitment is down to him I don’t think there’s been any doubt the managers have picked the players. Hughes lost it. Rowett signed who he wanted and Jones signed who he wanted. I always thought the issue was the lack of someone telling them they weren’t the best ideas and lack of a plan but if they’ve been told to let the managers do what they want then it’s a different story... We’re just a shit show. Does anyone know what they are doing in that place at all. It’s a mess.

What's he saying? That Weasel and Hoss were responsible for the good times, signing Bojan, Arnie, Shaq and Hughes and co are entirely culpable for the shit show that followed.
Bullshit.

When it was successful Hughes wanted more power? When what was more successful? Didn’t Hughes sign Wimmer? Hughes came when his stock was low. Therefore he accepted the process that was in place where the board had a big say in transfers. This was put in place when TP was in charge. Obviously Pulis hated it because he wanted sole power. After seemingly proving himself Hughes wanted more power to dictate transfers which was given. This has carried on. Terry Conroy said exactly the same thing.

Terry Conroy said exactly the same thing. But many of the early signings are players like Ireland and Guidetti that he’d worked with before. We had a great relationship with Chelsea and with Barca, two of his former clubs, and signed numerous players with Bundesliga links, which was a market Hughes had longed dabbled in since signing Samba and Santa Cruz for peanuts at Blackburn.

Terry Conroy said exactly the same thing. The "carried on" bit, doesn't make sense though. If they sacked Hughes because the change hadn't worked, they wouldn't then carry on with that same change with the next bloke(s) would they? They'd revert back.
