Pretty sure he is stating he doesn't get involved with tactic and team selection cos the last article said he did (and pretty every rumour on the forums too) Doesn't mean it's true just cos he said it. But that's why he had to address it

There's nothing new in there. He mentioned all this in his interview with bantamsbanter interview. Abbott is trying to normalise Rahic's involvement in transfers and the club in general, but McCall's comments would suggest it was anything but that and was in fact the complete opposite. It was obvious during his time here that Rahic's working procedures were completely alien to him.

Rahic could tell me the sky is blue and I wouldn't believe the prick.

Edin knows weather. You have to trust him. To be fair he probably thinks he controls it

I'd like to hear him say he doesn't try and influence who takes the penalties. "influence" is a good word. I would guess that Edin "influences" first team matters. He doesn't pick the team, he just influences it by telling the manager he'll be judged on whether our youngsters are being developed and getting first team football - and maybe mentioning (just in passing) how much he rates Jacob Hanson. He doesn't choose tactics, he just influences them by telling the manager he'll be judged on how attacking the team is. I doubt Abbo's lying when he says things like "It's not a case of Edin saying he wants to play 4-3-3, or 3-5-2. Or Edin telling the manager who to play." I reckon he's just being very careful how he words his denials. Good old fashioned political spin.

I reckon he's just being very careful how he words his denials. Good old fashioned political spin. Edin often answers questions by giving specific examples then denying them rather than the related question. He keeps the conversation in areas that are safe to him by steering it away from ones he finds ‘problematic’. People then hear an awkward question being given a negative response and think he’s ruled out the initial accusation when in fact he’s denied something slightly or entirely different. For example he might be asked, ‘do you have a hand in who takes penalties’ and he’ll respond with a short ramble about how he never picks the team and it’s disrespectful to Stuart and Grayson to suggest it. So, while he’s denied ‘picking the team’, he’s not rebutted the notion that he’s tried to choose who takes penalties but if you’re not paying attention you could come away thinking he had. It’s slippery.
