Our new CDM
Seriously though, being President of a new wrestling organisation will take up loads of valuable transfer time.. won't it?

Doesn't matter mate. There's more important stuff for him to do now
To be honest, what role would he play in transfers?
I'm assuming we have a scouting team which he would oversee with meetings. I'm assuming Ali Mac would sanction deals along with whoever physically negotiates the deal. I'm also assuming he has a meeting with the coaching set up to see what Claudio and co need.
What else does he do other than say for example set the budget and agree on targets produced by the scouting team?
I'm sure the majority of his role in transfers can be done by phone, email, Skype? He plays a vital role yes but does he need to physically be in London on a 9-5 job to do it?

Agree entirely with this, do people thing that Mo sat in motspur all day dealing with transfers? Of course not, they will set the parameters and leave it up to people.
Well Tony himself said he's been at Motspur for days working hard on stuff so he must be walking around the canteen a lot then! ;)

I would agree if we were talking about Khan Sr. But TK is not our owner. He is appointed to be in charge of player recruitment.
But it looks like TK is moving into showbiz instead.
It's a bit like being president of a university society while studying for finals.

Agree wih you, S F Sorrow, and it is not as if TK's recruitment crew is operating, or has ever operated, at maximum efficiency save for one window where one incoming was not even down to recruitment at all.

Just out of interest, how do you measure efficiency in this case? I assume that you know what the recruitment team is doing on a daily basis, since you are surely not only basing this on the perceived outcome. I mean, hindsight is good and all, but surely it doesn't have to be an efficiency problem just because we sign the wrong players or even that we sign them late. I mean, it could be, but it could also be a lot of other factors.
When it comes down to it we are all Fulham supporters and only want what is best for the club.
Sometimes I feel that we get things into our heads and sticks there (me included). A lot of comments are based on what has happened before, and make the assumption that it will be the same again. I am sure the "management" are fully aware of the supporters views on recruitment, and I would hope that they have taken on board various suggestions and complaints, and try to do the right thing, the only trouble is what's right for one supporter is not right for another. It's like with team selection, we have 20 supporters come on here with their selections , and they can be all different, but we all feel we are right, so when the manager selects his team he is on a no win basis.
Same with recruitment, how many players have we said we should get, and again we are all right.
We are in this mess, we can pull out of it if we get it right.

Can anyone explain why describes himself as 'owner' (amongst other things) on his twitter account?

I think he likes to feel important. Thing is, surely he must know self deprecation is important socially to survive?

I can see your point and I agree. If Tony Khan can show he and his colleagues have put very, very little effort into our recruitment, then we'd have to say the poor outcomes it has achieved are, actually, a reasonable return for that level of effort and therefore the process is quite "efficient"
