Great stuff.

 

[rincewind]

Good interview though goes over ground that's familiar to us.

Only this article has the facts right for once

 

[Shifnal Wolf]

Nice reminder

 

[North West Wanderer]

Hugely underrated

 

[Jonzy54]

Comes over well

I think its a typical before a big FA cup game article. Not much we havent heard before.

The only real part of that article that should be sent out everywhere is the bit about Mendes. Of course when you have the best agent in the world available to you then you would be stupid not use him, and we have ( Nuno and his staff, Jota, Neves, Jimenez, Jonny, Moutinho, Patricio, Boly, Cav, Vinagre etc ). Its very clear though he doesn't control our transfer dealings, but i'd say we have leaned on him probably more than some would like to get us to this position, and until we start getting our best players from other agents we will always get these silly accusations thrown at us.

Already started this thread .....maybe the mods can make it one.

 

[SA Wolf]

'We're all daring to dream'!

 

[Keyser Soze]

Appointed to the board of directors today

Kevin Thelwell appointed to the board

 

[WKFWolf]

congratulations to him

 

[Pagey]

Good move, hes probably the only Director who knows football

 

[Jonzy54]

Fosun must rate him because he was very much LD’s man

 

[steve vena]

He's doing a fine job and so is everybody else on the pitch and off it.

 

[WonderWolf]

Excellent. A footballing man on the Board can only be a good thing.

A natural with our 3-5-2 system albeit in a different way with the current 'idea'.....but development and progression is what it's all about, you move with the times.

Has certainly come a long way since getting shouted at by the Moxter at Euston station(?) all that time a go. Understood the need to get rid of ********* to be able to progress with a new direction.....very likely aided the process of ridding us of the future-resistant bomb squad.

Fully deserves it.

I'm waiting for the doom mongers...

 

[Deleted at request of member 4337]

Well done Kevin.

 

[WolfInSheep'sClothing]

Congrats - I may have finally got over him appointing Saunders.

 

[Surrey Wolf]

well done to him

[Deleted member 5910]

Fair play to KT, Fosun rate him and that's all that matters. Seems like a crucial part of our infrastructure now.

 

[AlexWolvesHD]

Good for him, wonder what additional duties he takes on with the promotion.

 

[Elvis Wolf]

MANY thanks for posting this KS.

Lol

Don’t think so Jonzy.

 

[KnowleWolf]

Congrats - I may have finally got over him appointing Saunders.

He didn’t, that was Morgan overruling Moxey and Thelwell.

 

[Jonzy54]

Don’t think so Jonzy.

He was definitely in LD’s corner mate

 

[reanswolf]

Excellent news - congratulation Kevin.

 

[Phitsanulok (Poole) Wolf]

Great news now can we stop the rubbish on here and just support the club
Who are getting everything right.

 

[KnowleWolf]

No doubt they were aligned however my point is that those who don’t know the man overlook he’s very much his own man. I would argue he is a co architect of the football blueprint that Fosun have embraced. Yes Fosun have added to it together with a big cheque book. KT has had flak over the years but often it’s for decisions where he’s been asked to fit a quart into a pint pot. Yet he’s survived a number of owners and regimes. Next time Mixers bump into those who know about Academy development, recruitment and technical understanding ask about KT.

 

[Knocker Lite]

In the right place at the right time.

I wasn’t knocking him merely acknowledging that Fosun have recognised his attributes.Similar to the scouting staff ,medical staff ,the sports scientists,sports analysts,the dieticians and physios there are many key components in getting players into the club ,getting them on to the field of play and keeping them there .

Not being sarcastic, but in the absence of a LD replacement, probably co-signing contracts and payments, authorising accounts, and other such administrative joys as a director!

Practicality aside, well done Kevin. A key part of the Wolves set up.
