    Paul Heckingbottom Is as good a shout as anyone available, s**t on Barnsley to develop his career, tried to fly too soon and got burned,
    Hopefully learned from that and maybe a little more humble. gave Paudie his league debut, understands what the BCFC crowd want and the pressure that brings.
    sometimes to be good, you need to understand what it feels like to fail, also he might now have a point to prove!

    Yes, much like when Parkinson went to Hull after great success at Colchester.

    Not the worst shout on paper.

    £12m sales over a 36 year career, not exactly much to sing and dance about

    I saw! Just don't reckon he had much control over them when he was playing!

    £12m over 20 years given the teams he's been at isn't terrible in fairness.

    bit again with some of the jobs he has had I wonder what he has included in those figures, surely not all sales when he was at those places

    Sorry?
    It's a genuine concern for me. Do you honestly think Stuart has proved that he can be trusted when it comes to working out what we need?

    You can hardly expect him to make much in sales during his 15 year playing career. There are plenty of managers with a 21 year career (his time since retiring) who can't boast £12million in sales. I bet as a football club we haven't brought in that kind of figure since 1999.

    Wouldn't you be happy with a recruitment man who brought us in £500k every year consistently ? It's probably more than the whole commercial department manage

    I believe Storck was quoting the man's own CV. Those are his exact words, and it's Storck's way of highlighting that perhaps they weren't the best choices.

    Plus as I said it all depends on what he is counting as part of his player sales

    Quick totalling up and we seem to have brought in over £20m in that time including sell ons and excluding undisclosed

    Which would make £12million from one person seem pretty reasonable.

    He was a scout for much of his career, I'm not sure how much credit he can take for the sales - but certainly for finding players of value.

    Player sales of £12m means nothing without knowledge of how much was spent on those identified players initially. I can sell a player for £12m if you give me at least £12m to buy them in the first place.. % profit is the key figure. We don't know what that is.
