I agree and this has been on the cards from day one of the takeover. AP will have been well briefed about ML/NC's plans for the club and will have known that they are looking to employ a Sporting Director. I think friction is caused when another 'manager' is placed in the DoF roll, without the prior knowledge of the incumbent Team Manager.

I think that's right but Jones was constructive dismissal at best. What is probably true though that most of the ones that he didn't sack, left because of him.

Key in the fact that the more we leave him out, the better our league position will be.

Correct! So far, AFAIA we currently have 3 directors Cortese, Oldknow and Jones, running the whole business. I'm not sure whether Jones is a permanent appointment, I suspect not and believe that he is the currently performing the acting Sporting Director role in addition to his FD duties. I would suspect that NC will employ 3 new names to the BoD and dispense with Jones.

Frank Arnesen is Sporting Director, Kenyon is CEO.

Quick editing there! I thought for a minute it was a backdated loan.

Potential England keeper apparently!

I don't know TBH but Warnock said it himself during the same show. Jordan is trying to sell the club but struggling to find a buyer.

Yes I saw that but then again Palace have a transfer embargo, so he's probably envious of any signing ATM.

Maybe the club in question wanted to see him in action before firming up a bid?

I thought this thread was an advert for drive-through tyre specialists.

Exactly how I feel. Under Wotte, pre takeover I was very keen for us to sign him, now not bothered because others linked are much better players.

Done on Last season's final league positions.

It's all relative really. In terms of some current Prem clubs (the Wigan's, Bolton's, Fulham's etc.) and many Championship sides, we (and Norwich) are giants. In terms of one side in our current league (I.E. Leeds United), we are a relative minnow!!

FFS!!!

Has NickH got in yet?!

Inspired sub by AP!

When not stuck out on the left (or right for that matter)!

I thought this thread was about some new Italian Striker we are interested in!

Gulp!!!!

Looks like Leicester could be signing him. http://www.leicester.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=165464

No. I'm already running version 4.1.

His wage demands are only relevant if he is going to extend his contract. ATM he is under contract, so his wages will be the same as ever.

We are at least a couple of rungs up the gene-pool ladder though, so although we may say stupid things from time to time, we are undoubtedly smarter than them!

You're right! The9 OUT!!!
