Seen a thread a few weeks ago about a director of football/ Sporting director at Barnsley. Some of what was said in it I don't think would work in the role. Some of the names mentioned were dinosaurs of football. The modern-day SD are normally younger people and often people that haven’t coached or not done well at it. Paul Mitchell, former MK Dons Southampton Tottenham Red Bull Monaco Stuart Webber, Huddersfield Norwich. Dan Ashworth, WBA England Brighton Newcastle Johan Lange, Copenhagen Aston Villa Micheal Edwards Liverpool.
