He’ll be gone. Loved Dazza but he’s not best in class.What about Fletcher?
Yup! Timings a bit odd but he's worked with Omar so it's a no brainer reallyHe's right, but if Man United come calling.....

To allow him to start straight away. Similar to Ashworth. It’s within our interest to have him start ASAP. If we’ve offered 12 months salary (notice period) as compo, every day they delay, the more tempting it becomes.Southampton don’t really have a leg to stand on, how can they possibly demand more than a year when that’s his notice period?
Neh Fletcher will stay I reckon, his role is a conduit from youth players to move up, and apparently does a good job. Could potentially be a change of job title on the horizon though.Yup! Timings a bit odd but he's worked with Omar so it's a no brainer really
People only care about loyalty when it's their club that suffers. Otherwise everyone is happy to poach staff and players from other clubsTweet

Unfortunately it isnt, 3 months would go to "middle management" in most businesses of a reasonable size. 6 months notice is fairly standard and 12 months for a director is fairly normal where going to a competitor.12 months notice is totally unreasonable in any case. 3 months is the norm for an 'executive' position.

I don't think he was really doing the role normally known as technical director so maybe he'll get a more fitting job description.What about Fletcher?
Wouldn't be Manchester United with some drama. At least we are now getting people in who are actually qualified to do the job we are asking them to.Ooh drama
How many people in this world are loyal to their employers? If this lad was offered a (most likely) better paying post at a bigger institution, would he have turned it down? This is a job for these people. It's stupid to expect people to be 'loyal to the project'Tweet

I know what you mean Liverpool just get Edwards back and Richard Hughes from Brighton.It won’t actually be like this but does feel like everything we try to do is a lot harder than other clubs as it becomes big news and these clubs don’t want to be seen as weak. It’s annoying af.
Sigh. Can people still not understand the role Fletcher does? He will be given a new title for the role so it doesn’t confuse those peopleHe’ll be gone. Loved Dazza but he’s not best in class.
BingoI don't think he was really doing the role normally known as technical director so maybe he'll get a more fitting job description.
18 year old aspiring football journalist vs Fabrizio RomanoOoh drama

I wish I knew the difference as wellWhat are the differences, please?
Sorry, i'm old school. Not used to all these different roles.

@Giggsy13 @Walters_19_MuFcI wish I knew the difference as well
Eat shit Southampton
Well yeah you can. As far as I'm aware they're unenforceable in practice. In my old job people would just feck off and we couldn't do anything about it. It was only two week's notice as well... PricksIf he’s got a notice period, he can’t just up and leave
Agree it does, we've got 2 execs waiting to join and potentially having to wait a year for both, surely there's a better route to find the right people?! We're going to end up with a playing squad and no execs next season at this rateIt won’t actually be like this but does feel like everything we try to do is a lot harder than other clubs as it becomes big news and these clubs don’t want to be seen as weak. It’s annoying af.
As far as I understand, and I might be very wrong, a director of football oversees the playing department. They help identify transfers (or at some clubs in extreme circumstances may even have complete control over them), they negotiate transfers and player contracts. That kind of thing. They'll meet with scouts, the manager and CEO or owners.What are the differences, please?

Not sure where you worked but suspect it wasnt at the level of seniority of the role Wilcox would be doing, unfortunately it is enforceable.Well yeah you can.

We need him to play in midfield next season.What about Fletcher?
I doubt it.He’ll be gone. Loved Dazza but he’s not best in class.
Well fair point, it obviously wasn't. It was only two weeks. So probably wasn't worth the effort and cost.Not sure where you worked but suspect it wasnt at the level of seniority of the role Wilcox would be doing, unfortunately it is enforceable.
