Speakman gone

[Chop Sauce]

Cannot say I am too impressed by this tbh

I remain to be convinced by Ghisolfi so we will see where this goes

Wind up surely. He recruited this team man.

 

[brains]

Mate who has links to the club text me and he said there's been a massive falling out behind the scenes over the Hume hybrid role. Speakmann and others have been putting pressure on RLB to at least rotate or try something different. RLB is stubborn and refused, leading to this.

Not good, especially after the strong season, but I wouldn't be too concerned cos everything I just typed is completely made up.

I heard from a club source that he was disgruntled with the early leavers. The final straw was when he saw thousands leaving against Liverpool when we needed a goal in stoppage time to preserve our home record.

The club heirarchy were reluctant to chain people to their seats against their will so Speakman has walked in protest.

I do sit on the side of rose tinted when it comes to the club. But I can’t help but think this is another example of how professionally the club is run now.

Another example of succession planning at the club. Speakman has been exceptional but we are now at a different level that needs different contacts. There’s been a professional handover of the role to ensure continuity. This is how successful businesses operate,

All the best Speakman you are a big part of the reason we have this platform

Spot on, it’s taking the next steps and trying to move up levels with no room for sentiment.

 

[Daydream Believer]

Well that's come from absolutely nowhere...

Really? I thought his time was up when we got Ghisolfi. I'm surprised it's taken this long.

 

[SAFC Wilks]

Same thing happened to me in a band I was in back in the day, creme brûlée we were called

Sounds like you got your just desserts mate.

 

[OneSafc]

2s a crowd here, Ghisolfi stronger in the position for this league and his contacts? Probably makes sense for both parties

 

[Pilly]

Hardly planned when he leaves in an instant. Big fallout imo.

Disappointed.

How can anyone other than the club know it’s sudden. It’s sudden too us but why would it not be, not exactly something they’d be sharing with the wider public

 

[Hawkings Boots]

So whose little black book did roefs, mukiele, alderete, Reinaldo, sadiki, diarra, xhaka emanate from.
Remain to be convinced … deary me

Well we will see this time next year

Hopefully I am wrong

 

[APH]

Judging by all statements he didn’t have much input anymore anyway

Ghisolfi is doing the job he was when we were in the championship

Agreed, I think Speakmans role this season changed to focus on outgoings.

We came up with little time to prepare for the Premier League, so moved quickly to bring in our signings without waiting for others to move on first. Although no longer part of the first team we had a huge squad of professional footballers on our books. The upheaval in the squad was a two man job, we're in a better place now and Ghisolfi will manage everything by the looks of it.

Back to Birmingham Ive heard

 

[STID]

My concern on this is Ghisolfi doesn’t stay around too long, likes to keep moving on to new challenges, so we will be looking for somebody else within a year or so

My first thought , sad to see him go but club are showing a real ruthless side,which we need ,somehow don’t think Rodwell situation would have happened with these guys in charge. He done a great job but we move on.

Yes his signings this summer have been nothing short of disastrous

 

[nhs99v]

You don’t get a DofF from Roma unless he has full control. Makes sense. Good luck to Speakers though - it’s how the corporate world works!

 

[hawayawayaway]

Now that premier league status is all but confirmed next season, we don’t need the expertise he offers. All the best to him.

Football is chock full of grifters and hangers on, but this bloke is the real deal.

 

[ir35]

Ruthless. Done a great job and leaves us in a good place.

 

[fixxxer]

his legacy will live on through Poveda

 

[summaz]

There’s Alan Browne threads?

Aye

People saying he was brilliant for us

 

[Hetty]

Removed him from website already
