Then, someone else will try to get a tune out of the players Moore has signed. I hope not and he can turn us around. The purpose of a DoF is continuity when managers have such short periods at clubs. Just because we have a poor one does not make it a bad system. In the meantime, the Ceo will have to run the show. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Even little Barrow have one, see how Moore does in the Summer, then time to look around before the Jan transfers. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Relegation is part of football, setbacks are part of business, learn from it and move on.

It is up to the DoF to ensure he has a good scouting network, know as Recruitment in modern football speak.

Assuming he accepted the job on the basis of the club playing style and business plan as defined by the DoF at the time, and would be given the funds to recruit the appropriate players to play that style, the need for a DoF is not urgent. Assuming by now he has identified where replacements are needed and will be given the funds appropriate to L1 or L2 to bring them in. His tenure will then depend upon his performance. During that period suitable DoFs to be identified to continue the clubs progress in spite of setbacks.

By then, the outline plan for next season should be ready. A brief statement by the CEO would be preferable. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Who is in control of the defence during a game goalkeeper? Or one of the central defenders? Are not heated discussions part of the game? Any arguments should have been sorted by this stage of the season. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Elderly? Still of working age.

On the club site Tommy Johnson is shown as the Recruitment Manager so the scouts would report to him.

As for what he said at HT, ``This game is won, take it easy we have another game Tuesday we don`t want to be tired for that.`` Pure speculation by myself inspired by Leicester`s excuse of lack of rotation options in their recent loss at Plymouth in my local paper.

Missing out either strengthens the resolve for the next season or needs a while to dwell on what might have been, Will be interesting to see how Mansfield cope in L1 next season, a point on Tuesday will be enough to get there.

Did she set a timescale for the Championship? Was it for the infrastructure? How are the players to be funded before the Academy is in full production? Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Was it a choice between a scoreboard and a player? The scoreboard will obviously last longer than a player and bring advertising revenue in as well as performing an informative function. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Mansfield look like joining them as well. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Only the club can say, I would think they would be mainly match day staff. Are we doing more in-house? Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

That is the target, not the situation. With our gates more difficult in L1 than L2. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Posh squad quoted as £40M, no wonder we struggled. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Dont think the FA can do much with the Prem, it would take an Independent authority/ Govt to limit player wages, maybe UEFA. Foreign owners, and International TV money rule the roost. Maybe some form of taxation to divert money to lower leagues.

Both leagues play 12 x 46 = 552 games plus 5 POs. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Yes, but I think they said they would decide the first half of the season fairly quickly. What I will miss are the extended highlights Sunday morning on the present system. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

They produce a lot more players than we do. They make a lot more out of player sales than we do. £70M over the last 20 years. Debt can be on infrastructure, borrowing money to buy players is a risky business. Staying in the Champ is not easy, only Ipswich are safe in their first season back. Nor is staying in L1 easy either. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app

Hopefully Moore does, must have seen something. Sent from my SM-A715F using onevalefan mobile app
