Toadhall Saint Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 ..... Director of Football. NC made comment quite a while ago that they would have a Director for footballing and prob this summer - just wondered what happened or if anyone has heard anything.

doughnutman Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 I think he has since remarked (in an interview with BBC) that he has realised that a DOF wouldn't fit in so well in the English game as well as it does on the Continent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doughnutman Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 Besides I think Les Reeds appointment partly covers the job of DOF (in looking after the young players and bringing them through) and leaves Pardew with the job of identifying and signing players.

sperm_john Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 Is a good thing its not being mentioned, I really dont think we need one, with a good manager and a good chairman in place, surely all directors of football do is complicate things? long may it remain the way it is ... except with a few new signings before the season starts!

Bucks Saint Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 no need for one with our hands on, involved everywhere, credited with every signing chairman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

up and away Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 I think he has since remarked (in an interview with BBC) that he has realised that a DOF wouldn't fit in so well in the English game as well as it does on the Continent. No urgent need for the moment, but still his intentions for the future. I don't know at what level he believes A DOF is vital, certainly not League 1, maybe not the CCC, but almost guaranteed for the Premier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotonjoe Posted 22 July, 2010 Share Posted 22 July, 2010 I think he just realised that he's up to doing the job himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
