Neil warnock interview on sky now

"Steve's been brilliant, just had no help behind the scenes since I've been at the club"
"Been like extracting teeth signing players"
"So when you've wanted players, the recruitment team didn't act quick enough and they went to other clubs?"
"Everytime....4/5"
 
Absolutely hammered everyone but Gibbo. I thought he was leaving by mutual concent.... Definitely not.

He had a little pop saying 'the new gaffer will probably get the 3 or 4 players I wanted'. So sounds like whoever it is may get a few quid
 
How can he rant about everyone else and then big up Gibson ? Surely if he's not getting what he wants Gibson is involved too ? Sour grapes and trying to keep Boro fans onside. Has had enough money for players just didnt spend it wisely. Don't tell me Ikpeazu and Crooks are anything other than his signings.
 
Recruitment been a shambles for a good 6/7 years, have any heads actually rolled.

sounds like Gibson’s distanced from the day to day running. Who’s running day to day things
He seems to let the manager of the day run the club. Pulis certainly claimed to be running all aspects of the club including finances. And that after he had been publicly humiliated by a judge.

Well obviously Bauser and his little recruitment team clique. As I've said earlier Warnock may have told them a few home truths and they closed shop. Who hasn't complained about the recruitment team over the last several years? It's the only thing that hasn't changed over our barren period until the appointment of Scott who hasn't been here long enough yet to make the changes necessary. It remains to be seen if he is able to shake up the team or gets dragged down to their level.
 
Two dozen players signed in just over a year. Did someone else choose all of them?

And if that’s what no support looks like then god help us.
Yes ok we have brought players in, but not necessarily the choices that NW wanted and he has mentioned players that the club failed to get. That is what he is getting at. I don't wish ill on NW, we have struggled with injuries and players at times being very inconsistent. He kept us in the champo, got rid of some rubbish and that is what he will be remembered for.
 
We got rid of the old recruitment team last season. New head of recruitment has been in place a year or so, Scott came in the summer. We’re doing things differently which doesn’t fit the old school manager approach. Surprised we’ve not gone for a head coach this time.
