Message: [QUOTE="Timonen, post: 5341281, member: 81"] A different angle here. Yeah, we’re competitive with keeping him…but I imagine a big piece of this is a much larger buyout. We want coaches to be poached - it means we’re succeeding. Well, we should be getting paid for those moves which helps us backfill at a higher level, or move the money somewhere more useful. Now a reasonable next step is figuring out how to do this with players, too. That’s how it’s done in euro soccer. The poaching WILL happen…but that’s how smaller clubs can help sustain high success. They get compensated and can reinvest. Out talent could and should be a revenue source. I wonder if something like that is on the table as this stuff shakes out. [/QUOTE]
