What’s the exact purpose of a Sporting director? Wouldn’t it be much clearer and practically cohesive to have (a) a Head of Recruitment & Scouting, and (b) a Head of Coaching a.k.a. Director of Football on the board? The duties of the former are obvious. The duties of the latter would suit a Bowyer, Thompson, or, even, a Critchley. Someone to watch over the coaching infrastructure of our club, while being available as a sounding board for the management team, dispensing wise counsel if required. Surely, the day-to-day running of the team should be in the hands of Dobs plus one or two shrewd coaching choices?
