            Terrible option. It will be the end of CP in very short time and then we are doomed. AG led West Ham with Parker and Ba to the last place with his style doing nothing and hoping that the players will win somehow. It worked for him in Chelsea though.0

            would rather use the money it would cost for Avram Grant to be DOF on another player,and I don't mean loan player,i mean buy a player we could call our own

            The Director of Football system has worked relatively well at Reading with Nick Hammond. However, he was already at the club in another capacity (coach, then Youth Academy director) before taking the DoF role, and so was working closely with key personnel before. A comparative example would be if Paul Hart was promoted to the role.
Avram Grant coming in would be a different proposition - and I'm not sure it would be a particularly good one either.1 - 
            Please don't mention that name Oggy. I come out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.0

            Would prefer Andrew Mills. Proper Charlton.2

Good point. The sporting director at Standard seems to have come thru a similar route having been the assistant manager/coach and then Sporting Director.tricky said:The Director of Football system has worked relatively well at Reading with Nick Hammond.

The rumours of Grant and Pini Zahavi being seen around the Club could be about them trying to buy and sell players from/to RD and CP and not necessarily mean AG will be a sporting director.
I don't expect the Club to respond to every rumour or reveal business dealings while they are in progress but more clarity and information on just what the business plan is, what the staffing will be, what the plans are for the Valley and the Academy and how CAFC will work with the other "farm" clubs would be welcome.
The "meet the board" video was a good starter, now can we have the main course.0 - 
            The Director of Football role at Charlton would be easy.
RD - 'hey DOF, what are your plans to generate success for the club?'
DOF - 'will just trust CP to get it right - I now resign, my job is done'0 -

            If we assume that the manager has help with signing players (something that I've read Varney used to do and something that I suspect Jimenez) was involved in someone needs to do that - irrespective as to their job title.
I doubt that RD is going to do it, it doesn't look like it will be RM's job so unless Katrien Meire is going to do it there does seem to be a vacancy. Grant has been involved in football for a long time and may be able to bring something to the table.
Either way I'm not sure it's a good use of Powell's time for him to deal with other clubs Directors, the player's agents and all his hangers on when he is needed to coach and train the players.0 - 
            Richard Murray always sold our players for peanuts.
I should have said Shelvey and Jenkinson.Airman Brown said:Starinnaddick said:Richard Murray always sold our players for peanuts.
I wouldn't put RM in that role and I'm sure that's not the intention, but he didn't get peanuts for Darren Bent or Scott Parker (if indeed he was responsible) . . .

Jenkonson was sold after the TJ and MS takeover as the myth was his sale funded the League 1 championship team. It didn't, Kevin Cash did.Starinnaddick said:Richard Murray always sold our players for peanuts.

Shelvey? Maybe but there were a lot of sell ons0 - 
            Chris and co to remain at the helm, please.
Interferers not wanted.
Thanks.2 -

What has what I said got to do with hate fuelled prejudice and idiocy ?
I accept that when you point out the facts [ if they are the correct figures and most are undisclosed } I was wrong although I still
think Shelvey and Jenkinson were sold too cheaply.0 -
