Ace 3,556 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Some of the comments on this thread are aids & not the good kind of aids. As for "we should appoint a manager first" ... I'm not sure you understand what a DoF does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yawn, you haven’t seen much have you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all understand, a man who has never managed a football club at any level gets to forge our future, give it a rest ffs. BA is right, another smoke and mirrors job to deflect from the real reason that this board are so inadequate in running a football club. If in a situation that you are suggesting and it goes tits up, we will have to sack both him and the failure he has picked as manager, not to mention any other of his fantasy football methods. After all it hasn’t hindered the scum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What will he be on per annum? He's set up the scouting system but he's not had a full transfer window to recruit yet. I'd like to know the full extent of his duties, maybe RTV could interview him.

Del 667 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 What do people expect a director of football today? not fishing, a serious question, because I don’t think have of the people on here know what he even does, so I don’t know how people can comment on how good/bad he has done. Do you exoect him to hire and fire managers, sign players, scout players? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McEwan's Lager 30,256 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Apart from Monchi, I've never really been a fan of the DoF model, but you can't judge him by literally 2 weeks of a transfer window. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 We won't get a big name manager in as long as we've got a DoF, IMHO. Most British managers don't like them. If we have a DoF, we should be looking for a Head Coach rather than a manager. Let the DoF do all the managerial work at the club, and allow the Head Coach to concentrate on getting a winning team on the pitch. I don't believe that we need a DoF, and I think it's a wasted wage, but we'd be paying a Head Coach less than a manager, because he'd have less responsibilities. This situation could allow Murty to take control, as Head Coach, and give him and MA a couple of transfer windows to get it right, or get out!?

Ivybank 4,496 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Imagine mark Allen or any DOF coming to the new manager with a list of signing targets," aye very good ,but their all shite", where would he stand then? Plus he recruited John brown! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMotor 2,208 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Nobody here knows his remit or the constraints he works within, so how can we know if he is performing? This is a simple example of where the board could display some commitment to transparency. Help the supporters understand roles and responsibilities in the organisational structure.
