Has he ever acted on one of your suggestions on how to manage the team ?
Never made a suggestion to him on how to manage the team.
But whats wrong with good ideas?
Tell me how my idea is flawed if so?
I also used to speak to Justin Pascoe and told him that when we released Matterson for NOTHING, that we should have a clause allowing us to sign a player at anytime in the future with an immediate release... which he ignored.
Then we sign Steff, and Parra dont release him for another year.
I told Justin, if you had that clause we couldve had steff a year earlier.
I dont see why this wouldnt be the same here.
Richo is the best administrator in the game no doubt - but everyone comes from different backgrounds.
mine is trading options on property... and that is why I put forward the concept.
No different to NFL teams trading players for like 2 or 3 draft picks, when the player they are swapping is of more value.
For us -- Galvin is of high value, in high demand, and if the club he wants to go to doesnt have a player of worth right now, that doesnt mean they wont next year or the year after.
Having a clause like this gives us optionality in the future to cherry pick their roster for what we might need at the time.
