Couldn’t have anyone threatening Boy Blunder. He’ll feel intimidated if there’s anyone half decent in the setup.
I lost my passion for the club a few years ago - it’s a right shitshow!

Most act as an advisor to the manager/management team where as a head of recruitment, just deals with recruitment and isn't really part of the running of the team, where as a DOF can have hands on everything if that's the agreement. It's supposed to be more of a partnership that deals with off the field stuff, also they 'should' shape up the direction of club from a footballing side of things. I imagine if we bring one in, he'd likely be that kind of role and leave Sparks to deal with commercial type of stuff.Onside likes this. -

Let’s be honest it’s a different version of Lee Turnbull, mixed in with a bit of Adams’ scouts.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...JonButterfield likes this. -

The club needs a vision and a strategy. A DOF will bring that to the table and Paul Jewell is the absolute man for the Job.
Ryan Sparks hasn’t got a clue about running a football Club, and changed his strategy every 6 months as he hasn’t a clue what he is doing. He changes hoping that he will fall lucky with a decent Manager. Herr Ruup will sack him (Hopefully) if he gets this next appointment wrong.
The club is so Micky Mouse and Badly run we are in danger of going out of existence.
sparks needs to get out of the Club as soon as possible - he is so far out of his depth it’s a joke.JonButterfield likes this. -

We need someone to oversee every footballing decision at the club, not just player recruitment. Has to be a DoF appointment rather than simply a recruitment director.

It will be a chief scout and someone as ridiculous as that plonk from the worst team in the EFL, Scunthorpe.
Don't hold your breath for an effective appointment.
I currently hate this club -

I'm on full boycott after this morning's announcement.
Wont be going to any games or renewing if there's no major overhaul.
Enough is enough for this spineless set up. Not interested in a HoR. -
Question?
Does it actually matter what job title the new bloke has?
Surely the important bit is in the job description, is it not? -

Don't expect a rewrite of the role. -

Now that Hughes is in the door? -
Are the club advertising for a recruitment director to help the two Sparkys?

You really don't need a DOF with Mark Hughes as manager.

It's a basic role, someone to look after the clubs future.
Not being funny, but don't we need a DoF MORE than a HoR with such an appointment? -

Whoever comes in should be independent of Hughes but someone he’s happy to work with
