Another who clearly wants out; we dont half get through staff under SR.

To be fair, he's been here for 3yrs and that's career progression and a step up for him professionally

I've been concerned by staff turnover when it's been 12-18 months with some people but I think 3yrs is pretty standard for people climbing career ladders like he is. Clearly well-regarded around the game from what's been said about him
 
Also, if we recruited another Championship club's (sort of) Academy Director to be our Technical Director would SR

(a) get absolutely slated for signing someone with no senior level experience
(b) get showered with praise for their visionary talent acquisition.

This is one concern for me. We seem to regularly lose technical staff. I am not sure if this turnover is normal but the implication is that the staff are not exactly behind SR.
