Did Mehmet Dalman explain the 6 month contract for Mick McCarthy?
What are they expecting to do in the summer? What are they doing between now and then to prepare for that decision?
Is it a case of MM winning a longer contract with performance, or are they looking to bring in a manager for the medium and long term?
Or is there no plan?

Although, I think a DOF, is a complete and utter waste of funds. What ever happened to that one Spurs had, who recommended all those donkeys (i apologize to all donkeys)
"MD freely admitted that they did not but the appointment of MM would buy them time to put one in place"
"When the possibility of bringing in at board level a Director of Football with significant experience MD was lukewarm about the idea."
This is bad.
Firstly, the people who will put this strategy in place over the next six months (what have they been doing for the last 5,6,7 years) is Mehmet and Choo. Two people who do not have the knowledge to carry out such a task. Or at least that's how this reads.
No DOF. Personally , I think that is exactly what they need considering the amount of managers that go through this club.
At least we have some crumbs of info.
Presumably both options are open at this point, but I do wonder if they've penciled in end of season interview with Mick to see what he wants to do next rather than just giving him the job if he wins more games than he loses.
There seems to be a greater commitment to youth now. About a year ago, pre-covid, there was a headline considering to upgrade to Cat A Academy status - is this still part of the plans and when can we expect the next step in this process to be taken?
From the outside, it appears that the squad lacks balance with some positions stacked with options (Ralls, Vaulks, Bacuna all being similar) and others seriously lacking (lack of RB cover, lack of fast and mobile midfielder who can pass). At the same time, long and presumably costly contracts were given out with expensive fees paid when coming down from premier league but that squad has now twice hit run of form that has seen two managers sacked/effectively sacked. If transfer committee is working effectively, what lead to these two scenarios and what lessons have been learnt?
Brexit means that number of leagues that new players can come from has been reduced. How does that effect us? What is our scouting system based on?
With the Bale money? Yeah only Lamela and Eriksen were decent buys, DOF can work in some cases though, we certainly need a broader long term vision for the clubIt's their words not mine.

If he had a good offer he can’t be losing too much money or sleep over it......
Well, you were privy to the information, why not enlighten us?
He hardly gets much grief does he? If anything people question his ability to get the right people running the business, should we be losing three million a month?
It's an ongoing case, with the club compiling more evidence all the time.
Obviously we were not told the specifics, as it's ongoing.
Most clubs are
Isaacs owned, I think, 10% of the club before Tan diluted his shares so that Isaac only owned 2% of the club.
https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/...court-18365243 - June 2020.He said a number of issues had arisen, including: whether Tan "procured the dilution" of Isaac's shareholding; whether a March 2014 loan of £7.5 million, recorded as lent by Tormen Finance Inc, was "in fact advanced by Mr Tan" but "falsely recorded" in the club's financial records; whether Mr Tan was responsible for "wrongly removing" Isaac from his position as a director of the company; whether Tan "threatened" Isaac with "a Christmas message"; and whether Tan "procured the club" to issue and pursue a "vindictive claim" against Isaac.
That sounds a long way from Since62's assertion that Isaacs claims the club is worth £500m! Isaacs is claiming his shares were worth £10m at the point that they were diluted.
Tan gets no grief at all. Although, for once, some people are starting to question the long-term plan that he has which is amusing considering everything he has done hitherto has been very much short term thinking.
Except the multiple Houses of Sport, increased stadium capacity, plans for new training base for youth teams of course. Most of what Tan has done has benefited us in the short term only but there have been some things thinking longer term.
What did happen with our Vale of Glamorgan training facility though?
The increase in capacity was badly needed, fair play.
I'm pretty resigned to Mick getting a 2 year deal if he gets us top half
Wasn't it needed to attract the UEFA Super Cup that one year? If yes it increased our profile on world stage and increased revenue throughout the second premier league season.
Without Tan Isaac's shareholding would be worth **** all.
I do wonder if a DoF would be a better communicator at these things (and hopefully they're going to continue) than Dalman though. Presumably he does good work behind the scenes but each statement seems to diminish his reputation.
