ex-president”Torpedo » Ilya Gerkus told that the “black and white” selection service did not obey him and stopped looking for reinforcements amid additional applications.
Herkus led the Blacks and Whites as president from August 2022 to March 2023. At the moment, “Torpedo” closes the standings, scoring 7 runs in 18 innings.
“I had high hopes for the winter break,” correspondent Herkus quoted. – I expected that we would restart, that we would get stronger and that in the spring we would have a chance to hold on. But suddenly did not go as planned. Before the transfer window, we discussed the prospects, more or less agreed. A decent budget for transfers was promised and we got to work. But the circumstances of the organizational plan began to present themselves.
The management decided to carry out the transfer campaign collegially, taking decisions collectively, through the transfer committee. A colleague from the board of directors wrote a funny instruction – a selection algorithm, and endless committees began – rallies. Initially, I did not hide my doubts about such a decision-making model, especially since the head trainer and the newly created breeding department were given the right of veto in addition to me and the board of directors. ‘administration.
– Who led it?
– Georgy Menzhinsky, head of Torpedo-2. Officially, the department was not accredited, but in fact it was functioning. A group of people worked, rated players, received money for this. And in the middle of the transfer window, it dissolved. As far as I know, this was due, among other things, to the closure of InStat for Russia. They did not explain anything to me – it turned out that the selection department, so to speak, was not subordinate to the president of the club, he lived alone. At the same time, the head coach and the non-functional selection service retained the right of veto, which was used more than once. The list of players that I prepared in the fall did not receive the approval of the transfer committee.
– Who did the selection service offer instead?
– No one is real, so the most popular fun in our football began – improvisation. That’s when the phone is constantly on at reception and the CVs of random candidates drop. Agents, friends of agents, friends of friends of agents, etc. The selection comes down to the discussion and projection of this stream. Chaos.
