Honestly think this has to be a good move as it can only strengthen a hierarchy pretty much devoid of ability. As I’ve said elsewhere though, this looks like a longer term move whereby Sharpe has to be looking at the CEO job. It looks ridiculous have Sparks above Sharp in the pecking order on paper never mind in the pictures: Sharpe looks like a professional whereas Sparks looks like a steward in someone else’s suit. The sooner Rupp stops kidding himself and realises Rhodes’ parting gift isn’t quite the titan of the football industry only Julian and Sparks believ him to be the better. Happy with this appointment.

Just listened to his interview and it seems he’s made it all the way to adulthood without being capable of sounding his ‘th’s’. I’ve changed my mind - miss.

How can a bloke that's been a CEO at a higher level club, and ain't short of a few bob in terms of family wealth, drop down to work underneath such a mess of a CEO? Hopefully this is edging Sparks closer to the door. If it's a failure Sparks will blame Sharpe. If it's a success he'll take all the credit. He needs fucking off sharpish the fat mess.

Just like he takes (and has been given in spades) the credit for Longo's commercial work. Baffles me why folk can't see what a charlatan he is. And why Rupp can't ffs. Hopefully Sharpe has got Rupps phone number and can tell him like it is and how it should be. Off you pop Ryan.

Not being able to sound out your 'th's' is a sign of a thicko, isn't it? I know someone who is a proper dribbler, who also has the same problem. Absolute man-child. Reading that back it sounds a bit harsh. Because the person in question is me.

Had to switch off his YouTube interview. Every third word was 'erm'. Does my head in does that. I'll give him a chance though and hope he, erm, is successful here.

Another role he's simply not qualified for.

At some point as English was morphing from old German, it went through a process called the Great Fricative Shift where, for example, the p in pater became the f in father. We’re going through a similar shift now, where unaspirated th is becoming an f and aspirated th is becoming v. People not pronouncing th are actually more advanced.

Definitely needs shaking up a bit. How about some sort of FA Cup style draw?
"Number 27."
"And Hobhead will now be posting on Mumsnet."
"Oooof."
