Sporting Director.

[Mowgli]

Parkys days numbered if true

 

[The Ghost of Arca]

No changes will happen of any note with a takeover iirc

 

[Nelson!]

Mclaren is certainly clued up, knows the game inside out and has contacts all over.

never got the impression he was particularly progressive in his approach and he was dull as owt when Boro manager. Long time ago but I assume he hasn’t gotten less negative with age.

 

[Ashley In!!]

Incey presumably

 

[faith brothers]

Don't see how we wil be able to get work permits for any non international players so can't see how the link will work?

The Uruguayan River Plate.

British steel plate much better

Gave them some great entertainment in Europe and won a cup mate.

Incey presumably

Bob'll nar.

L'Equipe saying it's down to 4 candidates to get the role as sporting director at the club. New people have been interviewing and the new sporting director will be English or Scandanavian. My guess is Steve Mclaren will rock up here.

f***ing hope it's not him. Yet another job for the boys, lives in Teesside doesn't he? Fuck that, we want someone upcoming with fresh ideas.

Same will apply to EU players from January on.

And built a boro side and got to a european final

Can they not help implement a better scouting system with British players too? Like Brentford do...

Aside from the petro states. And China. And Japan a bit

 

[Upthere]

Scandinavia isn’t a bad market to tap into at the minute mind

 

[gipetto]

An age ago. He's pretty much failed everywhere he's been since.

 

[The Ghost of Arca]

Bye Bye Phil Jurrasic Parkinson

Yep. Personally he wouldn't be my first choice but would definitely take him now rather than the shit show we are getting served up week in week out.
