I've said loads of time there and I still believe this to be true: DoF's are not suited to us.

This 20th century attitude is part of the reason why we're in the mess we're in. Owners, Chairman, Manager and DOF all bringing in players willy nilly, leaving us with an unbalanced squad. In your world we bring in a new manager,he signs 8 players, it doesn't work, he loses his job, the next manager comes in, doesn't fancy the players the previous manager bought and we're in a mess again. You need a DOF who you believe in long term and then head coaches who operate in the system set up by the DOF
