KT and co are a recruitment team for footballers, not a psychic hotline who can predict the feelings and decisions of players. They can only compile empirical data. A lot of fans seem to want us to make signings for the sake of making signings purely to be seen to be spending money. There's no point in taking a quantity over quality approach as that's what got us into the mess we find ourselves in the first place. Until we remove the mill stone of Group 3 or at least reduce the burden we simply can't afford to make the signings that fans want. That is the reality of the situation.
When debating this topic with someone else they tried to tell me that WWFC was a "pillar of the community" but in reality it's no more so than McDonald's, The Grand Theatre, Travel West Midlands or Carvers. There's obviously more to it than simply providing entertainment but that is the chief aim of a football team. Someone has to be in charge of running the business and if we could find someone who would add as much value as he does than fair enough, Moxey can go. The price hike was purely made to be in line with other clubs at this level and I disagree with that, but do you trust Steve Morgan to find another chief executive? As it stands both you and I buy into the brand of Wolverhampton Wanderers so both he and the commercial team have had some success somewhere along the line. Young people in Wolverhampton generally support their home town team as is not the case in many other places in the country you could name. Football teams have more brand power than companies like Travel West Midlands - if you don't like the service they provide you can wait for the First bus or the Stagecoach bus or the Arriva bus. People generally follow the same football team for as long as they follow football but at the end of it all, that is what a football team is: a brand with which you identify. Overall Jez has been a good custodian for it. He's made mistakes along the line but overall he balances that out with value that he adds.
