I think a lot of people support the trading model in principle but always find an excuse to say "but not that player, or that player" - Reality is if he does well and there's good money on the table he will and should be sold

That's not the model any more - I'd be looking for a good couple of seasons out of him now and if he stays fit he'll have no shortage of interested clubs at the lower end of EPL/top end of championship

Yes but that doesn't address the question. If it was just a "poisoned chalice" and he didn't want it he wouldn't have flown to London to meet club execs - So the idea it was because of Thelwell and Stewart is credible - Hence the question what is he thinking now hoddit and doddit have been fired

Then they're looking at everything in the round in slower time and giving Rohl a chance to take a look at the squad etc with January in mind - At a certain point they've concluded it's time to pull the trigger

Was joking about the Celtic AGM - I'll take Cavenagh at his word: They prioritised the on field stuff which meant getting rid of Martin and getting Rohl in and probably put Thelwell and Stewart on notice around the same time

Yeah I've given up on Chermiti - His profile might give us a chance of punting him for a few million but he'll never come good here - Not quite given up on Aasgaard but I'd certainly be putting Cameron/Bajrami/Curtis in before him now which says it all really

Fingers crossed - It looks like they got the manager appointment right at the second attempt so let's hope they can do the same with the new CEO and DoF - Otherwise the spotlight will have to turn on them

I certainly think their performance during the managerial search will have played a part - Thelwell is such an unconvincing person. I can just imagine him getting ran absolute rings around by other DOF's (see also: Youssef Chermiti)

About time. A nepotistic fraud of a DoF & another one of these useless boardroom flunkies. Hopefully the Americans realise that this is gonnae be a proper shift, requiring proper grafters.
Perhaps it took Röhl coming in & pointing out that we sold 2 goalscorers whilst signing rank dug meat.

I think he can see for themselves that the job they have done hasn't been good enough which is far more important - But they've also offered zero leadership when things have really been tough this year which will have been a factor I'm sure

One problem at a time Ally, one problem at a time...... In fairness Cavenagh acknowledged that the original appointment was wrong and they've learned loads since coming into the club. If him and Marathe get the next one wrong then the spotlight moves to them for sure.

For me it's nothing personal with either Stewart or Thelwell - But I found it increasingly annoying that they were both so obviously not up to the job and yet there didn't seem to be any consequences - This news has really reaffirmed my faith in the current ownership group
