How to recruit a manager

[i_ateallthepies]

At this level if you hire a decent manager you won’t need a DoF.

I’d welcome it because it gives continuity to the football side of things. But if we appoint managers of a similar belief and ethos it wouldn’t be needed as the upheaval will be limited.

If we were to adopt that role my concern now is who we’d get to do it. After Younger, Butler, Wellens and GM I don’t think I trust us to get one that would do anything other than make us worse

Darren Ferguson or Sean O'Driscoll.  Very different characters but both of them know the game inside out and would be strong enough to hold their own in the Board Room.

SOD would never come back here in any capacity.

I suspect that's true, Chris and probably the same goes for Ferguson but they're the type of candidate we should be looking for.

Why don’t the club ask copps to identify a few managers who we could approach, he knows the qualities that’s needed and has the clubs best interests at heart

He did such a good job with the kit
