I see Denis Wise has been talking about Frank, the CBS, the Fans and his credentials as a business man ….

Just a coincidence

What was his role at Newcastle?
And I'd imagine the rumour mill would go into overdrive with an Ashley connected appointment!

Looked online and was a technical director at Newcastle with some more responsibilities (transfers for example) tbh it sounds like he was a DOF but they were very quick to say he wasn’t .

I know more recently he was a technical director at Como (and was responsible for choosing Fàbregas which Tbf has worked out very well).

Yes he came over very well on the Como documentary series. They look to be a great community club.

I want the biggest nerds of all time running the show. Grab someone from Brighton, that Ian Graham bloke, tell em to recreate their scouting algorithms, and start hoovering up 18yo's from Ecuador and Guinea-Bissau.

Isn't their algorithm a closely guarded secret, a bit like the KFC recipe?

Aye but surely the people who actually work on it must know what their model favours.

Funnily enough their technical director of 3 years has just left, sounds like it wasn’t planned as it says they are looking for his replacement….

I read a piece yesterday about Birmingham and their setup. They have Craig Gardner as their Director of Football and some analytics nerd whose worked in football across a bunch of analysis roles as their Head of Recruitment.

Was talking about Gardner and how the American owners absolutely love him because he loves the club so much, cares about everything they do, knows all the agents and is the only person who always answers the phone at 3am when they call.

So what I'm getting at is this... bring back Michael Doyle as DoF.
