Do we need a director of football?
Do you guys think we will wait to see if we get into champions league before buying? Most seasons Na that has been the case we seem to do our business late in the window but as one on here said recently the targets must of been scouted months an months ago and should of been brought in ASAP to gel and get up to speed that’s what Lennon said at the end of the season he knows what he wants? But again slow movement I’m not slagging the board or recruitment but surly it doesn’t take long too contact a club discuss a price and get the player to cp to discus terms and sign surly shouldn’t take more that a few days from start to finish I know the players will come but I just wish for once it was done faster we started off last year slow and ended up taking in a few loan players that didn’t really get a game either pointless they need to change their strategy trim the squad and offer more in wages if need be to quality players, if that’s what’s stopping us getting in quality then the wage structure needs looked at I’m sure we can afford higher wages if we have a smaller squad and we turn a good profit every year too so do it if we want to step up a gear.

There is the same discussion every year on this, its not about the club every time its about the players.
Say your a quality player and we have approached u, finances are agreeable and u have a choice of us and others as most do, chances are its a bigger league so they have options with the big draw for us being CL.
Any good player is going to wait and find out if we qualify and also if we do we can go for a higher quality of player so it works both ways.
Its just something we have to put up with considering the situation we are in and any EPL team can come in and gazump us easily.
So its about patience mate I have no doubt we will get the g=best playes within our budget.

Why do we need a DOF when it’s Lawell who will decide everything?

Seems to be a popular position in other big clubs, but is it a buffer between the potentially volatile Lennon and lofty Lawell?

We certainly need a footballing brain making football decisions. The whole infrastructure needs a shake.

Because our scouting has been appalling recently wee need to try a different approach I would say so. Correct me if I’m wrong he will be in charge of scouting transfers etc?

It depends on the responsibility given to DOF and how well he works with key employees.
