    It will either be an inspirational signing ..... or it will end in tears.

    Has he the contacts to bring in players?

    Well he did achieve amazing things in Sweden, but not sure he will be able to replicate that in the Championship, time will tell no doubt, at least his footy is progressive..................<ok>

    Over what period did he achieve these things Phill?

    Sorry but I am totally lost in the desire for him to be our manager/coach.

    Has he been wanted by teams in the PL or Championship?

    Think he has taken the Swedish club from div 4 to top division in 5 or 6 seasons, and took them into Europe, getting knocked out by Arsenal? seems to have done this with pretty much no money!! he had to initially recruit locally, and train from scratch, so he clearly has ability................<ok>




    PS: He got the job in Sweden through a recommendation from Graeme Jones, Martinez's no 2, he started his project in Sweden in 2011. By the way although they went out of the Europa on aggregate, they did beat the Gunners 1-2 at the Emirates.

    That said - virtually no team in Sweden has any money. So a level playing field, so to speak. In the Championship there will be several teams with lots of financial backing.....

    Different dynamics for Mr. Potter .....

    I agree, but surely we will be favourably at the better end of that financial playing field........ <ok>

    Arguably for one season only..... and then, you have to recruit good players.

    When was the last time we did that....
