One of his role responsibilities according to the Stoke website is 'supporter growth'. Good luck on that one Simon!

Simon Says: Grow the Concourses!
Edit: Or...just move the whole lot back downtown.
Edit with 2 more weeks hindsight: Didn't work, did it? Ok, we move on.

So who’s involved in deciding player salaries and contracts? This guy. He also scouts any players we sign, picks the starting line-up and decides the tactics and formation (just like Scholes did before him). Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Now THAT brings back some hilarious past-post memories! If it wasn't Scholes, it was Kitson!

From your seat to the town centre in 10 mins building a basis halt would be relatively inexpensive however organising actual trains might be a lot harder & potentially not practical at all maybe some choo choo enthusiasts who aren't Crewe fans could explain it better

That can't be true surely? That's crazy and a proper backwards step if true. Presumably it’s a combination of the new football structure including cousins but we are clearly in a horrible financial position due to the truly atrocious stewardship of the previous ceo small positive steps off the pitch are prevented from translating on the pitch by the horrendous mess he left behind and FFP which he complained so bitterly about as its shining a light daily on his catastrophic legacy .

Chris Laird was previously appointed Head of Football Administration, which you'd expect would be contracts, paperwork etc. Andy Cousins took over as Head of Football Operations Simon King takes over the non-football side of the club (marketing, commercial, day-to-day operations etc.) www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/stoke-simon-king-west-brom-7172672

Sounds like management by committee
Just read Brian Clough's autobiography
It's Peter Taylor's job to tell me who has peaked and who will be my weakest players next season.Its my job to get them out
It's Peter Taylor's job to tell me who is on the up and who we need to get in for next season.Its my job to get them in.
Oh my , what would MoN give for a Peter Taylor and to be left alone to get on with it .

We are going back a long way but what you would like to see was more or less Nottingham forest in the glory days In his own autobiography Clough honestly remarks , he signed whoever Peter Taylor told him to sign and sold whoever Peter Taylor told him to sell Worked great for about two decades until Taylor told Clough to buy carl tiler and Justin fashanu , they stunk the place out and cloughie couldn't bring himself to trust Taylor's judgement ever again .Clough sadly , hit the bottle at the same time and The game was up for both of them . Still two decades of unprecedented success is not to be sneezed at .

His presence is certainly noticeable. The club are even sending us updates now, a small touch but all adds up.....
