Lead to believe the remit next season is to build a much more experienced and solid side, which is a start. Unsure how competitive the budget will actually be.
So the programme notes to sell season tickets about a top 7 budget was guff then? Any idea who is taking over? Internal or external? |

Lee Peacock DoF
It’s good that Ralph is finally out of the door, but I would assume this is a joke as that would really be the cheapest of cheapest options and no offence to Peacock but I’ve never seen him as a DoF type. |

Believe we are taking the Karachi FC DoF, and Sandro is going the other way.

Jamie Russell is more senior than Peacock so surely he would be a better option if they were to go down that route?

I have heard from a few people it will be an internal appointment but not AFAIK Lee Peackock. More likely Russell. |

I know he’s quite highly thought of and had has quite a bit of experience across multiple clubs but it’s all academy stuff, there’s no first team involvement anywhere on his CV so doesn’t exactly fill me with optimism on a change of approach. I would have thought we’d be trying to get a completely new set of eyes into the club. |

Depends on if the role changes post Sandro. If its more running everything outside the first team, then the internal.appointment seems fine. Judy becomes more Manager than Head Coach.
If its still a first team role than a cheap internal appointment is an9ther worry.

Yeah, get the concerns about an internal appointment.
Anything is better than Sandro though.
I trust that Morris & Brand will know exactly what they want for a tilt at top 3 next season.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Someone from the academy setup I think. |

The reality is that the best football address book at the club belongs to Morris. Stick him in charge of recruitment and he has a good calibre #2 to assist him with the first team.
Sounds like the new DoF might be more of a “football operations” type role.
The madness of Sandro was making him ruler of everything touched by the sun. As a “head of recruitment analysis” he’d have been much less contentious.

An experienced name isn’t necessarily as good as someone who genuinely wants the job and gives it their all. Jamie Russell or David Farrell could do well. Less bullsh*t, better results. Take Flitcroft at Port Vale. It’s suggested he works 2 days a week, and spends the other three running his building firm. They are less than impressed with him.

Do weed a full time director of football in league 2 as I'm intrigued on how they fill their days once the summer recruitment has been completed and the January transfer window has closed.
