What a shambles of a club we are now. Can't even attract a director of football from Southampton or a manager from Aberdeen

We could get McInnes if we wanted, it's just that the board don't.

Do you really believe that? We would never pay the compensation. The attract part was more about Wilson. The state we are in means we couldn't even afford to pay compensation to a small time mob like Aberdeen for their manager

Yes absolutely. 

 

The he board could afford the compensation but they wouldn't need to pay it, McInnes would resign if we told him to.

DOF the only ones I'm aware of that appear to have a shout at Wilson & Mitchell.

Wilson recommended a few names. Wagner, Caixinha and Garry Monk are apparently ones he mentioned. There seems to be a bit more than it being about a manager though. He's VERY aware that if he comes here and fails then it's a big problem. He's not a Johnny Foreigner who can just ride off into the sunset with his compo cheque. If it goes tits up here it's going to follow him around for the rest of his career/life. He wants to make sure he has all the tools needed to be a success before committing to anything. He has that at Southampton. We need to convince him it'll be provided for him here.

Wilson never suggested Pedro, not sure about the other guys.

It seems like one big fuck up, they offer Wilson the job and say ..btw who do you want as manager? ....well there's this guy Pedro...we then offer Pedro the job and Wilson says.... btw I don't want the job.

What happens if a new DoF doesn't rate him ? 

The board should pull out and start again in the summer IMO.

The new dof doesn't need to rate him. They both need to be good at their jobs and work together. That's it. Plus you'd assume that Mitchell is well aware who the club want as manager and if he's coming he'll be prepared to work with him.

I dont mind those gifs, it's that particular one that pisses me right off. People use it for a lot of things that don't even tie up with its use. Apart from that she looks like mong in that gif.

What does his age matter? His responsibility is everything to do with football behind the scenes including picking the manager and having a shortlist of managers who can take the reigns should that manager leave the club. That's how it works regardless of his age.

Bullshit, he will undoubtedly have a say in picking the head coach as they have to work together and he has to fit with the philosophy at the club, it will be by no means his decision alone, thats complete nonsense. 

Of course age has a bearing on the level of responsibility the person in that role will be afforded.

As i said DoF, head of recruitment, brown paper bag carrier, whatever you want to call it is not the head coach's boss.
