All jokes aside he could spot a player

Such a massive part of our rise from watching senior league players to premier league.

If my memory is correct, James McCarthy for £1mill was the last thing he did for us before leaving.

Graeme Jones was the one who recommended McCarthy I thought.

Ah could be, it was definitely one of them

Remember Laudrup's agent? Bent as a nine bob note but brought in some cracking players. Wild to think we agreed (if I recall) to give him a percentage of all our transfer fees received to keep him and Laudrup happy.

Wasn't a part of the breakdown between the club and Laudrup that his agent wanted to sell Williams for like £20m and Huw refused to allow it?

On that note I did a quick bit of research online and was surprised to see he hasn't managed a club for about 6 1/2 years now. Also found a recent photo from when he turned 60, the bastard looks younger than I do at 41

Not heard that one.

I thought it was more of a power struggle between Huwbert and the agent wanting more involvement with transfers.

Huw wouldn't give him the login details for his football manager account on the works laptop.

Plymouth also in for Low

Who’s leading our recruitment drive now?

If you believed the club, Watson and his trusty spreadsheet were working 24/7 to identify targets and put together some tape on potential targets. Watson’s been gone for a while now and no replacement yet.

Who are scouts and agents reporting to now, Coleman? Maybe Ken Gude has finished his Football for Dummies book and feels empowered to get this done. Maybe they report to Mathew Grimes, President of Football Operations?

Fucking brilliant last sentence. Literally crying

Plymouth would be a bad move for him, imo we’re favourites if we’re serious about bringing him in as he’ll see the progress our Welsh lads have had to the national team, and to be pairing up with Cabango another Cardiff boy.

Should have put a proper bid not the 250K I heard, if that's correct.

Yes, as I understand it that was the case. He also wanted to replace Ash with a Dutch U21 international for a fraction of the £20M.
The young Dutch man was Virgil van Dijk.
