This bloke needs fucking off!
Pissed off on Holiday before the window shuts, when the club has just received a shocking food hygiene report, the issues around the season cards...
How on gods green earth has this been allowed.
Fuck him off immediately!

Not sure you can put the blame on scholes, he doesn’t decide which players to sign does he ? He doesn’t pick the manager, does he ? ... doesn’t he basically just negotiate the deals after a player has been identified by the manager ? Not saying he’s blameless but it Seems like he’s being scapegoated here a bit. Yep, I feel a bit like that although there have been some pretty crap management situations discussed on here that are also down to his role in the club. I think we've just employed 3 shite managers in a row who have made a whole bunch of shite decisions GD

So Scholes is on holiday, that is classic. So when we need to negotiate potential fees and deals for the bomb squad outgoings, we have our Chief Exec swanning off abroad at nearly the end of August. If we don't get rid of any of them then what a fucking mess we've made of everything.
And it isn't the first time it's happened, either. I can only assume Cartwright with 3 weeks or so left in his employment will be handling the outgoings currently.

He handed out insanely ridiculous contracts. He gave Kevin Wimmer,the sort of contract, Harry maguire would have got, if he came here!!
We have got more championship level ' Alexi sanchez' types, sitting out ridiculously over generous contracts, than any club in championship history.
He can't organise the storing of a pie in a fridge.
And personally arranged 23000 empty seats for a prestigious friendly against Leicester, in the school holidays. Lord knows how much refreshments, programmes, merchandise etc, the club sold to 23000 empty seats, but I am going to guess not a lot
His one and only talent, is diverting millions from Stoke City football club to his own personal bank account! And all above board!
Okay, that's a great talent to have. And yes, I am envious.
But it is a talent, that is no use to the club or the fans.

He is responsible for those crazy contracts, that’s a fair criticism. Anyone who thought it a good idea to give berihino a 5 year contract deserves some stick, certainly.

So we're leaving one of the most important jobs, in getting maximum value for our bomb squadders, to someone who is leaving in three weeks? That'd be about right. Might aswell hand it to Pete the milkman.

It's just atrocious timing to approve a holiday when we absolutely have to get rid of players in the European window. I can genuinely see us being stuck with Wimmer, Imbula, Diouf, Bauer and Ngoy if we're not careful.
Fuck it, I'll do the negotiations even with no previous experience. I trust myself more than the club!

One of the family tho, isn't he? Like the adopted son, and I'm sure coates JR has more say these days and gas for the last 2 seasons+, coincidences? So he's a Greyjoy not a Stark. Just cut his cock off and fuck him off.

www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/stoke-city-transfers-imbula-wimmer-3229437Based on this article from a couple of days ago, we're not remotely confident of shifting any of them (except maybe one unnamed bomb squaddie) - and God knows what happens if we don't. Do they carry on turning up to Clayton Wood every morning and train in their own little group with the knowledge that they'll never play for us again?

September 1st onwards. This period should be embargoed. I'm not one to slate the club and staff if you check my posts but this is absolutely ridiculous , it would be like the CEO of a company taking a holiday during the middle of a profit warning announcement. It wouldn't happen.

So in the lead up to the next transfer window and all the Christmas stuff, I think this is probably the best time tbh, they also so know better than anyone if he's needed right now or not. But that aside if he needs to be reached I'm sure they'll be able too.

The finger of blame can't just be pointed at Scholes, he's working within the structure and finances he's been set!!!
There's been way way to many bad decisions made by "All" at the top, Scholes is just the whipping boy, he's there to take the flack when the board don't want it......and he's hard faced enough to accept it!!!

I'll only do bits though and my head isnt in work mode. Hes paid in excess of 1m per year. His job is football and he shouldnt be on holiday in football season let alone the transfer window. It's not the 1st time either. It is laughable. It's more evidence of complacency and it shows lack of leadership from the top. It's just poor all round when you consider the difficulties we face as a football club

Hung on to Hughes for too long after he lost the plot and then 3 tragic managerial appointments.
Can you park that at Scholes door ? I doubt you can, I expect he gets a vote in the managerial appointments but in the end he will mostly go along with what Peter and John say.
And we can't slag Peter and John because they are bank rolling the operation.

Bored of the Scholes criticism if I’m honest. Yes he needs fucking off, but honestly we’ve got a squad of players out there that should be winning games, no ifs and no buts. Naff all to do with Scholes is that .... That’s not the case though. Our squad of players is not good enough regardless how many “Big Names” we have. They are mainly bang average Journeymen who have little ability, motivation or inclination to work their bollocks off to overcome our current adversity. The Championship standard is too high for our team to compete at the Top. Afobe, Vokes, Ince, Allen, Woods, Butland, Clucas are slowly but surely becoming relatively worthless in the Transfer Market. Scholes and Coates are the only remaining constant in our disastrous decline over the last 3 years. I’d say Scholes is a Big part our decline.

Peter needs to put his foot down here methinks.
