The fans wouldn’t have it either, which is probably partly why the club wouldn’t have it at the time. Woodward’s transfer strategy was more about image and commercial value rather than footballing motivations like team building. I imagine the absolute failure of that strategy is why they’ve changed tack in the past 18 months, but the club is hamstrung in the short run due to the situation created by the previous mismanagement.
