Seen as we have a poll on the coach, does the responsibility not lie with the man in charge of our poor recruitment?

He can't leave until Phil tells him.

I'll place my 1000th post on this thread. IF we stay up, this will be the most important position in the club during the summer. It cannot remain in the hands of Bromby and Marsh. Its like a 5yr old being granted access to a room with a big red button. A disaster ensues Iwan Roberts Terrier 1000 appearances.....WOW Would still need to be reincarnated 5 or 6 times to reach Ted levels. That there is proper loyal service

I've said before, but no time ago Bromby was going around Sheffield trying to get people to sign up as franchisees for his soccer schools.
Next thing you know, he's landed the top job at Town. How the fuck did that happen?
N.B. I never use the word soccer, but it seems to be that these things are always "soccer schools"

If we're going with the Head Coach setup and using the Academy & good Recruitment as the key driver for success, then the best Director of Football we can afford is the key appointment. We cannot have the halfway house we have now with a Head of Football Operations who has no real authority and is there in case we go back to the Manager setup instead. Get in a decent DoF, give them the budget and then let them make all the football decisions.

This is an easy choice, how on earth this fella is still in a job is beyond me. It must take some effort to be quite as bad at your job as he is

Let's keep him honest by freeing him up to look for other work.

I haven't voted cos he's new in the job and more importantly, I feel the job (on paper) he's done isn't as bad as it could have been given the extremely limited transfer budget and ludicrously tight wage budget: Pipa (Spain u21 international for half a million) Sarr (Senegal international) Eiting (young midfielder from Ajax) Niasse (Senegal international)
However as has been said, him being new in the job isn't a reason to keep him there and I've thought for years we have needed somebody who is actually a good quality Director of Football (or whatever equivalent job title).
For me, if we have to have a tiny budget, surely you get an experienced person to handle that budget with DoF expertise, not gamble on a rookie.

I don’t really know enough to be honest
Some business has been decent like sarr and eiting. I would credit CC and coaches with pipa and vallejo
Things I don’t know though
Who got rid of John iga ... the guy who got us fit enough to do gegenpressing with very few injuries. Contrast to this season
Who was messing around with Walsall in January
Who didn’t take the option on stankovic contract
All three dropped balls IMO

I think the problem with hiring an experienced DOF is would Phil let him make the decisions. it was fairly clear he wanted a big say in the recruitment when he ditched the cowleys and any director of football worth his salt would want full control of that department

Editing yes, Sarr absolutely no way.

Never seen such a one sided poll. His is probably the most important position in the club.

Inexperienced owner, DOF & head coach is a recipe for disaster.

I like Sarr, one of the few Players I do. John Stones is regularly dropped by Guardiola and not picked for England due to silly mistakes I believe we a close to 20 errors leading to goals conceded this season, Sarr will be top of the list of the culprits. The question is, has his overall play/defending/goals scored outweighed the mistakes he has made ?

The question is, has his overall play/defending/goals scored outweighed the mistakes he has made ? Sarr's main asset is his heading ability. Take that away and he's a league one defender. We definitley need to sign a better all-round defender than Sarr if we're to progress next season.

What Phil needs to do is take Bromby’s hit list of players for this summer and give it to someone who knows what’s what and ask their opinion. (someone like Warnock if he wasn’t managing) someone brave enough to say Danny Ward and Duane Holmes are neverhasbeens.
These 2 cannot be trusted to pick a player.
They could ask Danny Cowley, he seemed to know a bit about players.

I think he should be replaced with an experienced DOF with full control of recruitment of players and his support staff within a given budget. Phil should not be involved in anything other than setting the budget and approving the agreed strategy with respect to recruitment. If Phil doesnt relinquish these responsibilities then he may as well stick with the current set up which i assume is cheap at first glance, but sadly ineffective in the medium to long term. Leigh Bromby has been put in this position by Phil, probably with little experience and likely with little support. We are not experienced professionals in the recruitment/transfer market we have been taken to the cleaners by agents, other teams and players alike. Nothing will change until we change our strategy and personnel in that area.
