Discuss Daniel Taylor's Thoughts

[Jean_claude_killy]

According to the above he's not a fan, just my opinion of course. He has his motives, I make no secret of the fact that I don't like him.

Sorry Sniffer I don t agree , they guy wants better than what’s being served up on and off the park is the way I see it, nothing more nothing less

I want better as well mate, we all do.

Sadly though I can't see a happy ending if DT continues, that is my fear.

Haha sorry I feel bad about starting this thread then not logging back in all day  :D didnt expect this but I guess it just shows how divisive he is.

Personally I think he feels that Vrentzos should be forced out and by highlighting the issues he's found this is the way to do it. Short term pain for long term gain. 

The big question is he doing this because he has a grudge or because he genuinely thinks this is the only option. Given his previous work and his clear love for the club and his status as a top journalist I think the latter. However I can see how it can easily come across the other way right now. 

Would the people that don't like what he's doing prefer he said nothing? Or just released quarterly athletic updates? Genuine question

I'd prefer he say he wants Vrentzos gone if that's what his aim is, has he actually said that anywhere or has he just said "Vrentzos does this", "Vrentzos does that"? Rather than just waiting for us to lose a match and then throwing bits and bobs out on Twitter he should use the audience and medium he's got to make Marinakis sit up and listen but isn't using it. 

I'd also like to know why it's only him doing it? Granted he's a top journalist but is he privy to more than Paul Taylor Or John Percy? If things are as bad as he makes them out surely those other journalists would have something to say.

From what I have been told, and I do not know if the information is pure speculation or accurate, the problems have arisen from the way Vrentzos has treated some of the staff; in particular two of the board members.

The original Tweets from Danny appear to have touched a nerve, as it led to others being singled out and accused of giving Taylor information; this led to people leaving their positions within the Club.

Danny has built up a network of contacts many of whom he considers friends, some of them dating back to the days when Doughty owned the Club, so I do not think that will stop the information flow, and there is no question that the information he is getting originates there.

On a more positive note: the same person told me that some of the people who had been side lined by Vrentzos are being reintegrated back into their former duties.

This could be nothing more than a culture clash; Vrentzos maybe thought he could employ the same management philosophy he does in Greece, assuming things are significantly different there; he now realises that he cannot manage in that way he has committed to change - this is supposition on my part.
