I had to switch off about two minutes in, I can't be doing with the bloke, seems full of himself. I'd be interested to know if the signings are Hurst signings, I don't believe PH would let Moore make the final decision. If I was PH I'd want him out the door asap, if RW had to make a choice we all know who'd be going and sooner the better. Who is this hurst fellow you are on about ? He seems full of himself whoever he is

From what was said I think it would certainly have been Moore driving recruitment last season as that's the task he was handed and he had an inexperience manager in Taylor (who I think would have been OK to go along with that). And we know how that ended up. So how its working now, who knows...maybe Hurst is very much involved in identifying targets and then lets Moore get on with signing them. Mind you, we've not kicked a ball in anger yet. So its still a wait and see to see if the recruitment has improved from last season.

Could it just be possible that Moore and the first team Coach(who's he) may just,may just,get on and work well together. Please give it a rest

I do feel fair few signings have stamp of Moore on them Lloyd from Cheltenham Bristol Rovers guys from presumed links to area O'Reilly from Villa Nsiala is a Hurst signing Others less clear but they are obviously working together, but also they are more able to. Hurst has been here since Jan and targets will have been looked at since then. Different to Taylor who was new and inexperienced, but also with less budget as they retained more on high wages

Lets hope this time around its more hit. From what I saw yesterday O'Reilly certainly looks as though he has something about him anyhow.👍

Micky's a big asset to us, if any late bids come in for say, Bloxham, he's going to ensure we get the right deal, leaving the first team coach to get on with managing the team. Like he did with Travis last season. Then there's filling up those loan spots in conjunction with Hurst. Then, when the window closes, back to getting the academy doing what it's supposed to, looking out for talented players, then getting organised for the January window, all while enabling Hurst to weave his magic over the first team.
If you support the team support the management.

So what has he done wrong ? Nothing at all. Comes across well, knows his stuff and bet there’s not a player from Championship down to National League that he’s not familiar with. The Irish experiment didn’t work but that’s lower league recruitment.

But all managers always want to spend more. However, the CEO at the time? He obviously left the handbrake off. Our head coach now has to work with a DofF, looking around for the best deals, financial brakes well and truly applied, and, if the right offer comes in, then one of the manager's must have players might have to go. With Head Coach working with DofF and overall control of CEO those crazy spending days are over. Sustainability rules!

And of course, perish the thought, it just might be that the Head Coach and DOF actually like working together and that they can now both concentrate on what they do best.

As long as they don't have roles that tread on each other's toes too much then it's always good to share the work, saves doing it yourself

The recruitment certainly needs to improve from last season.
Proof of the pudding and all that.
I want him to succeed because then Shrewsbury succeed.

They were bargain basement for a reason....

They were bargain basement for a reason.... Probably the point where the people who believe that the head coach, DoF and chairman are all exempt from any criticism from the last 12 months change their stance.

Precarious financial position=bargain basement signings?

Exactly, I think that goes for the majority if not all. I mean was there any indication that Moore and Taylor didn't get on? I gather they worked OK together, perhaps enjoyed working together too and thought it was working well. But that is no guarantee of success as last season will testify. I have no doubt that Moore and Hurst see things the same way but I'm just interested in the dynamic between the two because of the mess that was made last season and whether anything may have changed as a result. Maybe I'm mistaken but from one or two contributions to the thread that to do so means you think Moore and Hurst are at each others throats and you want someone to fail meaning the club to fail. Some weird takes on here. Because as you say, the recruitment certainly needs to improve from last season because last season it was poor. So lets hope they have got things right this time around. Fingers crossed.

Best episode so far. A real insight to what happened with SC leaving & MM coming in. Also as to what happened last year with signings & MT. I think the best where MM claims to have signed Charlie Caton only for a massive tumbleweed for someone to correct him and say it was a different player 😂

They were bargain basement for a reason.... Like the rumoured 100k we spent on Max Mata who’s already been loaned out twice and scored just one goal. I get your point about the tough position he was in and don’t disagree, but there are examples out there of him demonstrating poor recruitment. You can even look back to his recruitment at Cheltenham and see examples of money being wasted e.g Aidan Keena.

Yeah they corrected him, but it was the speed of his conviction that he'd signed him that was amusing!!!
