It just seems to me, we make a series of panic short-term appointments. It would be interesting to survey which League clubs had the greatest turnover of managers, but we must be near the top end. There are even several posters here who say it explicitly, lets make a short term appointment. Why would any decent coach be attracted to that for the right reasons?
We just go from one crisis to the next. Is that the owner's policy? So the next appointment will boil down to who's available in the next week, not who is the best man for the long term vision of the club. This is where a Director of Football needs to come in, but of course, that only makes sense if he is the right man, with the right long term vision. I don't think there are enough 'football people' above training staff level at the club. The ideal would be someone like Bomber Brown, but with experience of business.
