    You're obsessed with a Sporting Director role and I don't know why? Please give the reasons why it is advantageous?

    Years ago we had a player who was very similar called John Black but at least he had a shot on him.

    People should be asking themselves why wouldn't Rupp want one?

    Is Rupp not even slightly interested in learning about the game and how to get the best out of his investment plus not wonder why most clubs now have a sporting or football director!

    Let's see what happens in the summer when McCall wants 2.7m budget to start all over all buying players.

    I await the Rhodes line of we have no money blah blah that he tends to come out with.

    Very stout legs but wouldn’t tackle.

    We're not going to know what Rupp is going to do.

    Ryan Sparks said they had been interest in the club but no real follow up which to me means Rupp is wanting too much.

    If we now count on income the I think a Sporting Director is more vital than ever as clearly with the vast amount of players we need to get rid of and sign will be huge.

    I take it Rhodes isn't working for free? We have hired Ryan- for what?

    My fear is we continue running the club like it was under Rhodes and Lawn but we will be stuck in div 2 for a long long time if we do while other times just over take us as they've long term vision.

    It won’t last one season like that, I think we are coming into crunch season, he has to either commit or not. He does have some scruples, or otherwise he wouldn’t still be here.

    I think the bizarre recent sequence of events will be remembered for a very long time. But maybe it was so bad that at least the management will learn from
    it and be determined it won’t happen again. I assumed that letting Bowyer remain for the closure of the window meant he was here for the foreseeable. Bizarrely he didn’t really get chance to use the players he’d signed. So yes you’re right we are reactive not proactive, to use the jargon. I wonder what the Germanic mind thinks about that.
