It's one thing getting flats built at Somerset, or maximising off-field revenue at Surrey and doubling their membership, it's a completely different job to manage a squad budget, negotiate with agents, players, their families etc and sign players for a football club. I've still yet to be convinced this is the perfect fit that some are making out. And, I am absolutely certain that when the opportunity arises we will still be after a proper Director of Football, or some kind of footballing CEO. I agree. Think Nige can get stuff done in the early part of this window (no coaching / training going on really), but then we see a transition towards a DoF type role fitting in between him and Gould….even if it’s not got the remit of most DoFs we hear about. Walsh might’ve had contractual obligations with Charlotte FC that made the timing during this window difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
