Re first team Coach - How is speculation and “magic lists” amongst bookies, sports rags and online speculation on social media the Club making a rod for itself? - that seems to be a bizarre shift of blame.I don’t think we are in some terrible situation but the club have made a rod for themselves with all the chat about list of people to take over certain key jobs. To some this implies that one person leaves with the next to come in sharpish. It hasn’t been like that
Head of medical leaves - replacement not due to come into until pre season
Head of recruitment leaves - temp replacement in place but presumably someone else will come in
First team coach leaves - taken longer than many expected because of all the chat about the magical lists.
The new Head of Medical was announced publicly at the fans forum before the end of the Bundesliga season Pfab is joining us from Eintracht Frankfurt - he presumably wasn’t available when our medics walked out, not until the German Club finished their season but we likely would have approached him immediately - Again, though, not sure why is this the Club’s fault?
Head of recruitment leaves - replacement in place - not unusual at all to replace key positions in any business with interim appointments until exactly the right candidate is available. Often the interim is an assistant who moves up but then takes over the role permanently. The Club is just carrying out normal business practice. It can take months to appoint people if they are under contract to serve notice at their current positions or on garden leave..as long as the job is being done, does it matter?
