I have seen at close hand the respect he has from the players. Have no problem with Magilton picking the players he wants. I suspect (don't know for sure) in his interview he would have said what players he needed and that he wanted total control. Anyway, back to GP. Flavio does not spend 24/7 at the club nor does Amit, they have other business interests. In regards to all of them including Bernie, GP is highly thought of. I know that for fact, even by speaking to AMit, they genuinely believe he worked miracles in keeping the club going. ( I know that will cause arguments). He is not your cup of tea, but someone needs to be the eyes and ears of the club and report back. Other people that work at the club are more on the business side of things , sales, marketing etc towards supporters. You need tha liason between players and the board. Magilton may want a player, but doubt he is going to be sitting down organising contracts etc and leave that to Flavio and he simply has not got the time.
As a fellow r's fan, I know you are going to disagree, no problem with that but it is a time to try and be united and reflect next May, what if anything has gone wrong. Supporters wanted the manager picking and buying the players, well you will be getting that, lets hope for our sake he does a good job.
