In JC we trust. The AJAX Amsterdam Thread [R]

I think you're wrong. Who do you think needs to ratify these appointments?

As far as I know these contracts are permanent. Römer said they were for a period of 3 to 5 years. Blind is now TD, which is not the same as his former technical manager function. In his last function he was responsible for executing the assignments the technical staff (ie De Boer, Bergkamp and Jonk) gave him. The TD position would make him responsible for the entire football-technical section of the club, making him Frank, Dennis and Wim's boss. That's a very big difference. Not salary wise though, he was already generously overpaid.

Van Gaal will become AD (the CEO) of Ajax.

Dutch law and the clubs statutes state that the RvC needs to present the new directors to the AVA before they can be appointed. That hasn't happened. Art. 27 lid 8 states that those procedures can be circumvented as long as all commissioners have agreed with the decision. That also hasn't happened.

 

Clearly not all efforts were made because they purposely kept him in the dark for weeks and planned the signing of the contracts on the day Cruijff was in Barcelona for his daughters birthday and only contacted him that morning.

Blind is ad interim until it becomes permanent yes, same goes for Sturkenboom. They're not leaving once Van Gaal feels he's ready to start.

It really is beyond me that you think Cruijff is doing the damage here. He's not the one leaking constantly and he's not the one scheming behinds everyones back. I hope you're just messing with me.

 

This isn't about Cruijff vs Van Gaal. It's about a bunch of scheming backstabbers that try to divert from the plans that the club in the form of the ledenraad, many of our greatest players and the definite majority of the fans have chosen to follow. The last RvC + vd Boog were dismissed because they were uncooperative. And now these guys who didn't know the shape of a football 4 months ago want to overrule Cruijff and his support, meaning practically everyone.

Cruijff doesn't want a position, he doesn't want total control and he's not here for personal game or out of spite. He doesn't want to rule Ajax from afar, he's in Amsterdam the majority of the time right now and he's ready to hand the club over as soon as the positions are adequately filled by people who support his vision.

 

The RvC has been disbanded. None of them are welcome to return in that function, including Cruijff.

On a non related matter they have appointed Been Jr., Ligthart and Van Boxtel as interim-bestuur to replace Coronel and his crew who stopped earlier this week.

December 12th they will form the new bestuursraad who in turn will elect a new RvC. Who in turn might have to appoint new directors. Seeing that the bestuursraad will most like again be dominated by guys with no football background I fear for how this is going to turn out.

 

Yes.
