You yourself have discussed the players that Eustace wanted but he was not allowed to bring in. Thomas Asante, Dembele etc. Im guessing the likes of Toth and Gueye werent his idea.

Point being, he clearly wasnt happy with the recruitment or the way the club was run hence why he couldnt leave soon enough.

And I am sure you will go on to say I didnt personally rate those individual players that much, especially Dembele. Irrelevant to the point I am making about the fact that a director of football structure can lead to disagreements which are much more likely at a dysfunctional club like ours.

Recruitment has not worked for a number of years. The squad is full of loans and short term contracts and it will be another summer of trying to cobble together a new team on pennies. Having two different people in a director of football role has not improved anything here, its caused more problems if anything.

Doesn't answer the question tbh. 

Eustace is the head coach and the recruitment team to find the players we needed. Overall I think they did more than a decent job of it. January, we waited for a striker as Gestede said in his podcast then it didn't happen, I take that was BTA in my opinion. 

Lets hope this summer we can get 2 or 3 signings in before pre season starts. 🤞

Lets hope things go as brilliantly as they have before then.

yet again, making things up to suit yourself, no where did I say things went brilliantly but now you revert to type now. 

You still can't answer the question which players were push on Eustace. You make the claim but can you back it up now, guess not.

We don't know for sure did we, we can only used what has been reported by someone or in the public domain. Which is what you have done with this point(same as I do or others) which is from Elliott Jackson I take it whilst Gestede was asked by EJ about it, said he knows nothing about it

I think we will leave our communication there.
