And it's not just that the two things are inconsistent with one another. Both the sucking up to Levy initially and scapegoating him for all the problems now are being done in a way that's just nakedly self-serving and reactive to the narrative in the moment. Someone used the word "unctuous" earlier and that's exactly it, the sense of a salesman desperate to tell you what you want to hear is palpable with this guy.

what do you want him to say about the mess that he is trying to sort out after Levy left? People want communication and honesty but when they get it they don't like it.

"We were overly complacent about our place in the table and what our trajectory was under Thomas Frank during the January window, that was a mistake we have learned from and it will not happen again"

That would be much more effective PR pablum than the PR pablum he's actually spouting, because what he's spouting is laser-focused on all the problems being Levy's sole doing.

He said absolutely fuck all in that answer.

"We didn't sign forwards in the January window when we should have done. Do you accept that"

"We need to have a different strategy that means we pay more for less, whilst getting more for less, but selling the lesser for more. more or less."

Where did he mention Levy in those videos?
 
Again, the club is trying to give transparency to what is happening and has happened. Isnt that what all of you wanted???

Let's give this new regime a chance. This rebuild on and off the field will be painful but the club has to go through it.

Now we have the right manager, the club is willing to break the wage structure and we are attempting to sign more experienced and proven players. Changes are happening!!

Is it transparency or is it pure bullshit. That is the bit we all have to decide for ourselves. Personally, I'm very confident I know what it is.
 
Mate if you're not reading the galaxy-sized "everything is Daniel's fault and solely Daniel's fault, and all of the protests about him were right, and the protestors should be celebrating us as liberators" subtext in every one of these statements we're just not speaking the same language here.

But a lot of it is Levy's fault!!!! Subtext or directly calling him out, I don't care, the majority of fans could no longer accept the way Levy was running the football side of things.

Actually I think Vinai is being polite about the way this club has been run and how things are behind the scenes.
 
I must really hate myself. I watched that video.

To be honest, I'm not sure if I hate myself FOR watching the video, or simply because I'm a masochist.

Either way, I feel worse about myself for watching it.
