Message: [QUOTE="Wolfie, post: 3186882, member: 8770"] I dont think when Boyd came back, or when he was made captain they were bad choices. Even his contract, in terms of his market value was probably right when it got extended. Where it went wrong was the contract length. At the time i said a 2 year deal would have been about right ( and these negotiations would have come before his bad hamstring injury ). Bringing Boyd back initially proved to be a smart decision. The dumb decision came when his contract got renewed. I dont think its as simple either as saying Bennett would have had the majority say in 2015. Obviously, there would have been certain players who Wayne would have wanted over others, but the system from 2015 onwards under Bennett wasnt a Wayne dictatorship. We have a recruitment team of more than one person. I'd only be guessing, as everyone would be on here because nobody really knows, but i'd say the recruitment was shared a lot more than it used to be. The biggest influence i think Wayne had was his ability to attract players. Payne Haas came here because of Wayne for example when he probably had better offers on the table. As i have said, Wayne in his second spell was more just a part of a system rather than running the whole show. [/QUOTE]
