The thing I still don't understand - this presentation that RH gave to the board on the future of the club, was that pre-season or did it occur during the season? If it was pre-season as Gareth and now Piney are indicating - why did he have the meeting that Brockie has referred to in the media mid season after the Morgan interview saying that they would be changing styles? That just doesn't make any sense to me
Good question. I have just been speculating in the Ownership thread that maybe Ricki was trying to go about it in a more low-key way with the players (having failed to secure better midfield options that Sanchez and Smith in the off-season, and not wanting to scare the horses until he knew he had the personnel to do the job). Then Gareth got excited and forced Ricki's hand. That's actually a pretty plausible scenario if you ask me.
