Found the answer.

A Technical Director is, in essence, very similar to a DoF in the sense where he'll go out and try to make deals for the best staff members he can find. He can also act as an in-between between staff and manager, making the game a whole lot easier for you, with less of a workload to deal with.

This guy is either really good at doing SOMETHING for the club, or he’s not good enough for his role because they keep moving him around. This is what? His third or fourth role at the club?

The guy is an exceptional coach, who has bought into what Nuno has wanted from day one and implemented it at the age grades below and from what I know from other clubs, his reports on developing players are top notch.

I am not sure what the role is but hopefully one of more communication and clarity

They put a few videos up the other week but then made them unlisted shortly after. Presume they'll repost them soon with this announcement being made

Keeps moving up, so obviously club (and Jeff) seem him as important and doing a good job.

I wonder if he is a bit of a 'yes man'? I do hope not and he tells Jeff/ Nuno what they need to hear rather than what they want to hear. He does seem to move around a lot within the Club which means he's either bloody good or he's not found a home yet?

Oh is this why we have so many successful youngsters playing regularly for the first team over his time here.

One of his new duties is to advise which kids John Ruddy has to babysit on the expanded nine man subs bench.

Not many players do make it to first teams in the modern game.

you can’t critique a coach of an academy if not many get through to a premier league first team. The % who make it at any club is very very small and can be dictated by catchment area too. The class of 92 was the exception and not the rule, also haven’t we got 7 under 23’s in the match day squad at the min? A few of whom played in our academy.

Plenty, but wouldn't like to give you an estimate, depends on what you class at technicals, because technically it is a broad area

Whilst you may be technically correct, I actually think you're technically incorrect as I think in this case it is technically more specific, now back to your shoe. ;)
