Everything is rumours but it seems Thelwell may be gone at end of season and new DOF is either Davie Weir or the Leeds DOF who their fans can't wait to go! Really hope our new Friedkin group are monitoring fan forums cus there is only one choice then.

If the owners monitored forums, they wouldn’t have got Moyes back in. I hope they make their decisions based on extensive research and expert advice. Thelwell is an interesting one, hard to judge with so many restrictions previously.

I really hope that we have owners that have a plan and don't monitor fan forums, the last owner was bad enough listening to people who didn't have the best interests of the club in mind.

I read Weir wants to stay where he is mate.

Think we looking at Dougie freedman from palace too.

The fella from Leeds is being considered for the CEO position, nothing to do with the DoF role.

Think the David Weir rumours are due to him previously working with Moyes.
If you actually look at what he’s done at Brighton it’s not that great - he’s spent a lot of money on average players - most of the decent Brighton recruitment was done prior to him being appointed.
Would like to see Thelwell stay, he’s not been perfect but with the issues we’ve had he’s done fairly well - Ndiaye and O’Brian look top class - would be interesting to see what he could do with some money.

Restructering, maybe DoF will be defunct, Moyes likes control so maybe they will go with that.

Agree - Thelwell inherited a sinking ship and hasn't done the worst thing in the world with what has been brought in over the last two years. Dyche seemed to be against the players brought in regardless and was going to make them sit on the sidelines no matter what the side required, seemingly out of stubbornness. If the wings are clipped and there's a manager willing to work with him, Alcaraz, Ndayie and O'Brien could just be the start.
