Tears in rain Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 What is the job description for a director of football? Curious to what they actually do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Steve will not do it. He wants the control, so he gets in nice blokes who do what he wants. It's his club - in terms of ownership at least - so it's up to him. I am bollocks-sure City would do really well if only he would pay for a proper manager. He just won't release the reigns enough. tfj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristolNorthEndRed Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I may have this wrong; but; I thought the club is now structured in such a way that the jobs/tasks are in a way; modular. That is to say it is structured to simplify replacing modules without upsetting the whole staffing structure. If this is the case; then It follows that should the Head Coach ‘module’ require replacement; then swap it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretSam Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I thought that was MA's role? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelts Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 The horse has already bolted. If Lee is sacked I see Pembo taking over. Holden will go as well. Me I'd like to see Gary O'Neil take over until the end of the season . Not gonna happen though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 It would make zero difference. it would only confuse the players as to is actually in charge. What the club needs is a fresh manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrowVegasCidered Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Considering the money spent, lansdowns thinking on basement bucket managers is surely flawed? when the betting odds come out for next manager it is always basement stuff? Why? lansdown won't pay? he doesnt see value? he only wants a yes man anyway? Come on Steve cough up for a respected manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Harry Redknapp if he would come here would be a great choice in that role I think. Vastly experienced, eye for a player, lots of contacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost black rat Posted February 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 good call but transfer window is shut so would have to work with what we got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 He could also advise LJ, pick up some very valuable knowhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashton_fan Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Mark Ashton covers most of the roles of a 'Director of Football', ie transfers and contracts for players, can't see what a new person would have left to do. From SL's interview looks like LJ is going to be with us for at least the next 2 games. I think he's gambling that if we get 4 or more points from those games then at least LJ won't get booed in the home game against Burton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrowVegasCidered Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Lansdown will be are after a L1 manager he can order around. Not a proven championship / premier league manager! (Which is what we need) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
