Palarse or Smallwall
2 What is the business plan for the club?
3 How and by whom will the business plan be funded?
4 What are your plans for the Valley?
5 What are your plans for the training ground?
6 What is your exit strategy?
Extra question to keep in with the mood of the thread
How soon will you build a state of the art museum?
Who are the new mascots?
a) the manager, with support from his coaching staff
b) the chairman
Who is in charge of scouting?
a) a team of experienced scouts with expert knowledge of English football providing information and advice to the first team manager who always has the final say.
b) your next-door-neighbour's son, assisted by his Commodore 64.
When you appoint a Chief Executive, you'll be looking for someone who:
a) understands that football supporters are different from any other business' customers. Their sense of ownership is to be embraced and encouraged - we'll be a stronger and better club if we're all pulling in the same direction.
b) thinks that football supporters are idiots who have no right to complain about anything and should pay up, shut up and turn up at least an hour before kick to join in the pre-match dancing.
Malaysian or Chinese?
2) Can we have one please ?
a - your arse
or
b - your elbow?
