With the news that Birmingham City have inexplicably sacked their manager Gary Rowett I know that he will not be short of offers from many clubs in the Championship. If Delia had any sense she would snap him up in a heartbeat. Football owners are just bloody stupid in the extreme and this being the latest example! Birmingham have been in the play off places for most of the season and Rowett has done an amazing job with the resources that he's had at his disposal. They were near the bottom of the league when he arrived there! The owners must have got nervous after last nights result against us! "Gary you only beat Ipswich 2-1 that's not enough and your fired!" I would love to have Rowett come to manage us but some fat chance of that ever happening. Who knows your board might now see sense and make a move for him, You could do a hell of a lot worse!
Wrong time of year for us to change managers, we normally wait until March/April when we've lost any chance of promotion!
Not totally true, you made the playoffs a couple of years back, that has to constitute a chance. How did that go again?
We made the playoffs when Big Fat Joe was in charge as well, those days may as well be a million light years away now! If only he had been given the money that Magilton and Keane had been given. We would be a solid Premier League club by now! Hey Ho!
I have to say I'm shocked that Zola was appointed so quickly, it must have been arranged in advance! I thought Zola was more of a gentleman than that!
I hope you are keeping well Dave? I know we haven't always seen eye to eye and on occasion boarded on being totally hostile to one another but I have mellowed in my old age! Truth is I'm just bored bloody rigid by what's happening (or isn't) at Portman Road these days!
I'm not too bad thanks JWM, yes we used to have a lot of fun with you and welly, not seen anything from him in ages. I hope he's ok
