Rather amusing to hear him talk about us needing to become a development club...a decade after Les set out his stall to do that. Very easy to say it, slightly harder to actually do. |
When I was at secondary school pupils were placed into ability based streams from 1 to 7. Then there was a class optimistically named the Progress Group where anything but progress occurred. |  |

This is the point Dave Mc keeps making on Twitter isn't it - what they're saying now is nothing new. |
The words and intentions are the same, yes, but the club has also made structural, technological as well as personnel changes, which I’d imagine are designed to improve output.
Where before you had Chairman (Bhatia) - CEO (Hoos) - DOF (Les) - Technical Director (Ramsey).
Now you have Chairman (Hoos) - CEO (Nourry) - Head of Methodology (De Souza) - Director of Sporting Operations (Williams) -
You could add Academy Director (Carroll) to that list and there’s probably lots of things I’ve missed out too. So I think it’s a bit simplistic to just say that Nourry has taken on all the roles that the DOF used to do, as well as being CEO. It looks to me like the DOF roles have been redistributed to other areas and probably the same could be said of the CEO role.
Then there’e the data and networking side of things that I haven’t really mentioned because I don’t really understand it and don’t particularly care to. However it all looks and feels more and more like what you see at teams above and around us who we aspire to be like. The days of dodgy Harry Redknapp and his dodgy contact book seem to be behind us.
The previous regime was a big improvement on what went before it. Dealing with all the fallout from the Premier League years, the new training ground, improving links with the fan base, keeping us solvent and keeping us in the championship. Hopefully we’re now building on top of their work and are showing signs of progression i think.
We were a million miles behind the likes of Coventry before so now 2-5 years doesn’t sound that bad to me and I’m much less concerned about a relegation or in fact a promotion in our current state. |  | | |
