My favourite manager rant of all time, something to aspire to.
I still want to know how bringing your dinner is helpful to a post-fight wind down, too.

Thanks for the insight.He is another part of ongoing behind the scenes drip drip changes at ccfc, starting with first team coach Dennis Lawrence last year and various new coaches coming into the Acadamy. Under 18s post vacant to be filled soon.
We ain’t Mickey Mouse anymore, most if not all top clubs have one.Director of Football????
As King seems to be learning as he goes along, would guess it's at Robins requestIf these changes are to shield Robins from some stuff and make his life easier in managing the football team and recruiting players, that's good. If it's undermining him in any way, I'd be very concerned.
Wonder if he took Gyokeres to Brighton.This guy Jamie Johnson has an impressive cv. He was Brightons European scouting manager for a number of years. Worked with spurs, Derby, Millwall, Portsmouth, Huddersfield among others. Positive move and if we can replicate some of what Brighton have done in recent years I'd be happy!
That's what I was thinking, but looks like he started with brigthon in 2014 and left at end of 2016 and Gyokeres joined them in 2018. Could well have been on his radar/database though. That being said they did bring in some serious talent during his time there...Wonder if he took Gyokeres to Brighton.
Looks like Knockeart came over during bus time. Also Hemed who was a good striker for themThat's what I was thinking, but looks like he started with brigthon in 2014 and left at end of 2016 and Gyokeres joined them in 2018.

Haha, indeed!Good to see Robins following the Football Manager adage of hiring all permitted back room staff. Might need to ask King to expand the available wage budget for physios next.
Good way to add a very expensive extra scoutHaha, indeed!
I don't hire a DoFootball as I'm tight and do all the stuff myself anyhow! Probably the reason I'm still playing FM17 as it's taking a long time.
Seems so, among other things.What exactly does a DoF do? Are they responsible for transfers into the club rather than the manager?
tbf it says 'The role can be very different in different clubs'. If this change is confirmed, it will be interesting to see how it's intended to work.Seems so, among other things.
Understanding the role of the Sporting Director - Association of Sporting Directors
The Sporting Director is a relatively new position within football however the majority of English Premier League Clubs now have someone in the position. Some take the title of Sporting Director, whilst others include Technical Director, Director of Football, Head of Football Administration and...associationofsportingdirectors.com
Considering many people are saying there's no room for improvement with our recruitment team, this is an interesting move.

@Frostie you're usually ITK with this kind of thing, any idea?
Yeah, knew about Johnson coming in after the window but assumed he was to be Chief Scout & Austin as Head of Recruitment; not sure about the DoF thing tbh.
Transfer Shouts
He is also a different type of striker all together than Gyokores could fit in well as a partner, Vic needs one imo. Seems more of a poacher. Good replacement for Godden.www.skybluestalk.co.uk
