Rooney: "Pepe. What an idiot. Sometimes people wind u up,"
Rooney: "Haha. That goal serves pepe right."
Guti: "I laugh at Rooney,"

Holy fuck that's scary.
Jesus fucking Christ on a cunting bike.
We've spunked some money on some really not very good players. Again.
What it is with our managers, Houllier, Rafa, & now Kenny. Give them serious cash, & with one or two exceptions, they buy pure shite.

Which is why Comolli was brought in.
To make sure that there was some sort of check and balance system due to the fact that we've wasted unconscionable amounts of money on mediocrity.

Kenny's decision, no-one else.

I just don't believe that's true. There was some interview that said Kenny had final say, but that's what any incoming director says, and even if it were true, where is Comolli to attempt to calm his nerves. If Comolli has no significant input that would make a significant part of Comolli's prime stated purpose at the club irrelevant.

We should fuck off Comolli.
I liked the idea of a DOF because I thought it would reduce the chances of us acting stupid, but it hasn't at all, so he's pointless.

Obv Comolli will scout players abroad and show Kenny videos and wotnot, but for the likes of Downing and Carroll, they were surely signed because Kenny wanted them.

What are you talking about?
I wonder if, when FSG appointed Comoli as DOF, they had a different vision of the type of football manger and his role in the club, than what they have ended up with in Kenny.
After all, he was brought in as a caretaker manager until the end of last season, perhaps to give the board time to uncover the man they wanted as the manager they wanted.
However Kenny was so successful with his rescue mission , that FSG's hands were tied, and they had no choice but appoint a manager that didn't full fill the role of manager as they thought it should be.
So now we are left with owners and a legendary manager, both with differing opinions of how the club and team progress through the future, with neither getting their own way entirely.
Just a thought.................................

Good - Enrique, Suarez, Adam, Coates,
Bad - Carroll, Downing
Who Knows? Henderson
So a 58% success rate at signings as it stands?
Everyone signs shite. You just have to learn and not stop signing. Carroll is just a rock around Kenny's neck now. What were they thinking. Hindsight I guess.
Someone post "What have the Roman's done for us" clip. It's how I feel towards FSG now.

I was in a meeting on Monday morning with a director of a private bank that paid 27m for an offshore part of another private bank last summer because it seemed like a good idea at the time, but they've had real trouble integrating it and don't really know why they did it or if it will ever work.
And I just sat there thinking 'Andy fucking Carroll.'
