Good piece in the Times today by Matt Dickinson headlined: "The West Ham way: soaring wages, bad recruitment and blaming fans." One of Dickinson's key passages reads: "There always is someone else to blame, which might be plausible if Sullivan delegated responsibilities and left others to get on with it, but he does not… No club is immune from bad purchases but most know it pays to establish a system that operates with a strategy and smart staff feeding detailed information into a manager and board. West Ham’s scouting and recruitment has been a mess for some time, not least because Sullivan likes to add his own idiosyncratic decisions to the mix, sitting in his Essex mansion playing Football Manager for real."
