Disagree with those saying it can't happen immediately but I get where there heads are at but the sooner Bruce is gone the better, should have been yesterday or the day before that or even Friday evening once the news broke. No time to waste - do people think he's suddenly going to become a world beater now there are new owners in? I mean who cares if the staff leave with Bruce? Bring back Caldwell for a stop gap with Jones and promote some youth coaches if you have to but Bruce shouldn't still be here!

A director of football is responsible for the footballing philosophy of the club from academy to first team. It is this role that chooses the manager. By all accounts we're going with this route. So the DOF will be responsible for the hiring/firing of managers, coaches, medical staff, sports scientists, scouts etc.
It's not like Amanda is going to rock up in a pair of boots tomorrow morning and take training.

Personally not a fan of DoF's so I wouldn't waste time or money on them, to many cooks etc... I couldn't argue with the guy from Leipzig tbh as he has a proven record of improving clubs and not just the first team but the club from top to toe - BUT how many other have you seen that have done that for a club - look at a legend of ours like Sir Les at QPR - I'm sure he's doing good stuff but it hasn't exactly transformed QPR and made them a force to be reckoned with in the championship. I couldn't name you on DoF (including Leipzig man) who I'd wait to sack Bruce for.

I'm still 100% sack Bruce yesterday - get caretakers in charge, give it to KK and Shearer, Caldwell and Jones, Harper and Ameobi - none of these could do a worse job than Bruce has done.
 
I wonder when we will 1st hear a story about a player bucking our owner in cupboards

Harper and Richardson could back up Jones temporarily

Difference being that Ofsted are ****s
My two takeouts....

1- Amanda had a portion of Mehrdad last night... ~walkingstiffly
2- Mehrdad had better ball control than Joelinton

After seeing that I'm lumping on Newcastle to win this weekend. Wouldn't even be surprised if Joelinton scored a hattrick.

As I said on here before, those players will be playing as if they're in Squid Game.
