Yes, of course we definitely need someone in a DOF type role but if it was to ever happen under Tan I still don’t think he’d relinquish enough control so it’d be pointless
Just another role we can’t fill with anyone competent like the managers one

I've been watching 'Welcome to Wrexham' recently, and was mightily impressed with the way they went about recruiting their backroom staff. They appointed Shaun Harvey as advisor to the Board (ex Leeds, Bradford and Football League Chief Exec). Then he advised them on who to recruit as Chief Exec (for Wrexham), and then as their new manager. Okay, they have money to spend, but you can't tell me they have more than Vincent Tan.
We need someone like that. I'm not saying we poach Harvey (might be an idea, mind), but we need someone with good footballing knowledge who can advise the owners on all aspects of the club. The problem is, I think there's an element of trust involved here, and I'm not sure Tan trusts anyone outside his little circle of friends.
We need exactly that. Experienced football people making sensible and sound football decisions.
For that to happen Tan needs to admit he isn't the man to make the footballing decisions at our club. Sadly, I'm not sure he is going to step aside and let others make decisions any time soon.
