Young Bob 1,360 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I would like to know why anyone on here can claim someone is an excellent or very poor choice for Director of Football? We were told in the last 18 months about all the gems of players who were in the English 1st Division. What success have these players had?

Dont get me wrong , I quite fancy the DoF role , but they must have known that the price of going down that road was less money for a manager . Now they appoint one , they decide not to go down that route . The best you could say about that , if it is indeed true , is its a bit of a fuck up .

One person has said its a long term project, if we went off what one person said the last few weeks we'd have about 50 managers by now. DOFS salaries are probably around £400k for our level, so say add that on to the manager salary, is the level in manager going to be that much better? Theres more to it than just salary anyway, is there anyone available in that price bracket, are they willing to come to Scotland, would they want to work with this squad under tight finances, its not as basic as we have more money so we can get a better manager Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Wilson opened their eyes to what's involved ? How many were interviewed for it ? Why put it on the shelf when Mitchell becomes more available ? Will this be another ' Nomad ' situation ?

But if they're not , it doesn't look clever on us . SR announces we're going for DoF and a few weeks later we appear to change our minds . Very amateurish I'm afraid .
