Just not a market we have explored during the Craigan/Hartley years. I got the impression that Welsh enjoyed playing for Askou. Although he was clearly fully committed to Motherwell I'm not so sure he would want to return now that Askou is away. Would not surprise me if Welsh ended up in Toulouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a great move for him, and Toulouse could not doubt afford his wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Seems we have lost a member of the recruitment team to St Mirren. Gavin Miller. Not sure what he did for us but he is know head of recruitment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purestate Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Interesting one this. From StM announcement by Keith L ”Gavin joins the club with a proven track record of identifying high potential players that have generated significant revenue and has an extensive network across Europe and the UK.” Given the increased focus on data analytics and use of various databases/algorithms I wonder how much each club would already have same targets and how much Motherwell specific details on targets Gavin Miller takes with him. in other commercial environments there would be non-disclosure, non-compete and/or gardening leave situations when someone moves to competition. I know nothing about the realities of football situation. Interested if others do - in general if not this specific case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 56 minutes ago Report Share Posted 56 minutes ago I'd guess he works for a data analytics company (or partners with one), and that data belongs to them rather than Motherwell. Given their track record, however, all he really needs is a database containing the entry "Copy what Motherwell do" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like other industries, i suppose it depends on the level the person is operating at. If they are graduates or junior to mid staff they move on seamlessly. If they are senior management/director type level you get into those clauses. Thats my view anyway from non football industry. No idea what and how it happens in football 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
