'then take it to the US board ' 14:52 - Dec 6 with 685 viewsHARRY10

I'll make it a bit easier - I thought we had a board over here.

If those in the US are relying on the UK board to make recommendations, then why not the decision.

What extra layer of expertise do they have on the English game ?

Much like Bloots and Mullet with Cook's firing, the US board will probably just give it the green light.

The ultimate decision will be with whomever builds that shortlist.

Isn't the ultimate decision always with the owner?

At least the new lot will do their due diligence, get some statistics, commission reports and ask difficult questions to make sure everyone is making the best decision.

I know it’s not how you did things Marcus but in the real world that is what happens, the CEO interviews candidates makes a shortlist, presents it to the board and tells them these are the shortlist I recommend we hire X and here’s why if you disagree tell me now.

That shortlist will be something like

Gary Megson
Geoff Sentence
Mark Ashton's choice
Ali Dia
George Weah's other cousin.

As an official Influential TWTD Poster, you can rest assure that Megson will be nowhere near it.

My flawed understanding is that the owners are the Board. I.e the Americans. As Chairman, O’Leary is also on the Board and is the essential link. Ashton is CEO and runs the club and sometimes dials in to Board meetings, but he is an employee.

So given Ashton is running the club day to day, he will have discretion to make decisions on each of the operational strands, but I presume the major ones re a key position like manager or funding for say ground improvements beyond certain limits would need Board approval.

This is purely piecing together what they said when the club was taken over and a bit of guess work. I’m sure far more knowledgeable people than me will correct this view.
