Sporting Director.

That's fine. You can do it either way. But the point is your SD doesn't get involved in non-football matters, and, with is commercial background, that's actually where Cortese's greatest strengths are.

Yep. Cortese would be a perfect CEO or Chairman for us. Sporting Director is different, they would report in to him. And work with the academy, scouting system, playing staff.

there's no money in football outside of Europe tbh

Mexico is iirc the fifth highest paying league.

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

Brentford will have had all the Scandinavian players leg measurements and the size of their cocks on file years ago.

JR would be very interested in this scouting system

We want managers, coaches, ceos and dofs who are gonna wanna stay in the NE best part of ten years or so minimum.

You keep calling them chancers, fair enough, thats exactly what Satori is, who for some reason you seem to trust implicitly

Didn't you say that there was no takeover not so long ago, but you're now discussing it?

If I'm wrong, I apologise now.

They also say the same consortium are looking to buy River Plate. We'll be small fry by comparison?

Uruguayan Primera Division outfit Club Atletico River Plate

Barry Fry is 75yrs old now. Too old.

Parkinson would play him centre mid

What's Stefan Schwarz done of great note to make him a candidate for a Sporting Director role then?

Just imagine man. A fan who would want the very best for the club and knows how to get it.

pie in the sky though I’d imagine. We are in league one and that’s a massive step down for him. Same as Allardyce, I could see him being involved but not at this level.

someone like Schwarz would be building a career here.

It doesn't matter how he bounces, he's a minority shareholder.

I don't think it is a proper takeover, and no I was saying the ITKs on here talk utter bollocks, which they do been on going for 17 months

No he isn;t

How isn't it a proper takeover? SD won't have any influence on the day to day running of the club.

To be fair, the likes of @prehab26 and others have been a hell of a lot closer than you have.

No they haven't, thats the point.

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

Get you an umbrella no problem.

Mind, you here ex Man Utd and England players rave about his training sessions.

Great coach apparently but certainly wouldn’t want him as manager.

 

[Wayne The Punk]

Honestly if this takeover doesn’t go through what’s your new username going to be? You never fail to completely embarrass yourself.

If it does go through will you just fuck off?

Went from a big takeover with the Americans to a switch around of the shares and a 22 year old brought on board. Nothing will change

FML another one on ignore

Managers will come and go. We need a set up at the club where when we appoint a manager that they suit us. We don't change everyhting to suit them. As shown under Short we'd be always be in a cycle of correcting other people's mistakes.

I like that a lot, and Poyet would be my first pick as a manager
I suppose I tweaked what Rocky suggested. Get Poyet in, then the club builds its ethos around that moving forward

It’s the Uruguayan River Plate not Argentinian
