Re: Winter defends Marwood
I am sure that Marwood is conducting transfer policy consistent with the parameters given him by Khaldoon - Winter points out as an example why / when we backed out of (for example) the Hazard deal.
We have spent years educating the transfer market, media, clubs and agents that we are absolutely there to be taken. We now have to spend some time educating them differently - it will not happen by just a few statements - Cook and Hughes tried that to no avail.
Mind you, No CITY official (or one of any other club) actually does anything at these draw events. So I would hope that he is only there if there is not a need for him to be somewhere else trying to conclude a deal that sits within the parameters we have decided upon - and which I am sure (IMO) Bobby knows about.
