In and amongst all the PR work that he and the staff have had to do to get the stadium Premier League ready, every day for the last 7 days it's felt like we've been making big moves in the market. Early part of the week Cajuste & Broja, today Clark & Ahmedhodzic ...
That's not including all the failed bids/ enquiries for players which is no doubt a significant number .... All this without a designated 'head of recruitment'.
He's clearly got a great team around him but his ability to 'get s**t done' is truly unmatched. |  | | |  |

He'll delegate a lot of work, project managers for the stadium stuff etc and have weekly update meetings. Similar to recruitment.
He won't be doing it all himself. |  |

I think he has said that Luke Werhun is leading more on some of the player contract/transfer negotiations now. The two have worked together for a long time which obviously helps in these situations. | |

He delegates everything and takes the credit for everything. Besides ever since he caved into McKenna every dodgy agent in the known world has him on speed dial. | |

Werhun is his brother-in-law so I should hope they do work well together!! | | | |

Mark Ashton is even more important to ITFC than Kieran McKenna. Because we wouldn’t have KM here in the first place, and we would have lost him in the summer without MA. Thirdly, if we had lost KM, which looked likely for a while, Mark Ashton we old have been bringing in a replacement. Then there is all the stuff you mention on top. And of course the culture and work with the Foundation. Quality never happens by accident. We rightly applaud McKenna, a genius of a manager. But it wouldn’t have happened without MA. In my mind, he is well on the way to deserving a statue himself. |  |

I don't know about a statue, but he's already a club legend. | | | |

If we have a good season, the Bristol City boards will be interesting... and possibly Watford's too. | | | |

How do you know this? What is your evidence? Or are you just being unpleasant….again. |  | | |

Found it a funny reply.
Of course he’ll fecking delegate, he’s CEO with a large team of well qualified people underneath him. I don’t think anyone expects he’s spent the summer at PR up a ladder with a paint brush. | | | |

He’s no Clegg, that’s for sure.
He’s been working his nuts off. But when it’s a passion too it doesn’t really feel like work (although I’m sure he’d like another holiday). |  |
