I thought that too :) I'm still not sure what the sporting director does other than 'long term football stuff.

There is nothing to say the Coach/Sporting Director style set-up wouldn't work in the UK, it's just a cultural thing and being able to get past that with everyone involved I guess.

I'd find it hard to believe it could work with someone used to the current system who is a Manager though because by it's very nature it would change his role - it has to.
