Howe is this still rumbling on?

Reading between the lines, it seems to be an issue with structure.

The board has given Jones assurances about his future but Howe wants his own coaching team.

He also wants his old Technical Director but that probably doesn’t fit with the DOF model they’re trying to put in place. I assume we’re negotiating a compromise of some sort.

I don’t think he’s high profile/good enough to be making demands with regards to a technical director tbh. He can, by all means try, but I doubt he’d be daft enough to let that be a deal-breaker. This is quite a decent opportunity for him to pass up.

At the moment we need him a lot more than he needs us. He's in a strong position

If he believes his best chance of succeeding in the role is having his own team around him, he's right to stick to his guns

How do we know that he wants his own technical director in? Is that from a reliable source or just been plucked from the ether and has now become fact?

It’s a jumble of him wanting Hughes in at Celtic, and then the delay for signing with us and people putting things together.

Ok ta. So it’s speculation rather than fact as far as I can see.
