Can someone help me out here?
Paraphrasing Nicola Cortese quotes over recent weeks, he's states the importance of the 'Director of Football" role and yet, at the same time, he says he is in no hurry to appoint someone in this role..."maybe as late as next summer..."
Can someone please help me with this apparent dichotemy of logic?
I suspect the most likely 'explanation' people will come up with is that the 'right man' isn't available at the moment. I don't buy that though. That would be saying that 'the man' is more important than 'the role' which, in business, can never be the case, surely? What if 'the right man' never became available? You forego an "important" role indefinately?
Either the role is very important or it isn't. So fill it now with the best man available (IMHO). No?
No doubt i'm missing something very simple here?
By the way, can someone take a photo of Coppell in the director's box on Saturday? (assuming he's there of course...)
