Fair play Rosey, just in time to replace Adkins.
Come on, let's get new owners in and Rosey as manager.
Even if we're ****, it'll be ace.

Can you imagine the party with that announcement? Something to hold onto during the match tomorrow.
Maybe cost? There’s around a £3k difference in the cost of the pro course between the NIFA & our lot. If this runs through all the courses it could add up to a significant amount?
I'm not sure there is, it's a bit confusing - The standard cost of the UEFA 'A' licence is €530 in Germany, €1,200 in Spain, €2,350 in Ireland and £4,390 in England, but attaining the 'Pro' licence can cost €7,550 in Ireland and £7,595 in England.
The Allams.
He was approached about being Nigel Pearson's replacement, but decided to stay at Man United.
I think that's the only time he's turned it down.
So Joyce turned down the Allams? His already high stock has gone through the ceiling for me.
Apparently he was really close, in fact changed his mind on the day he was meant sign.
He probably didn't want to take such a big pay cut.
He used us to get a better contract at Man U. He had agreed to come right up to the day before, so close was the announcement that the HDM had billboards out on the morning saying 'Joyce to be announced as City manager'.
He was offered the managers job before that by Adam Pearson and again kept us waiting and used our interest to wangle a better job out of Man U.
When he was City manager he sided with the Fish/Chris Needler regime and once celebrated in front of an empty Kempton after he'd scored a goal.
I genuinely couldn't care less if people **** the Allams about, you reap what you sew.
So he was offered a better job at Manchester United which he chose instead? I presume 99% of everyone else in football would have done the same.
When he was manager, Fish and Needler were long gone. Belton was our chairman with Hinchliffe and Buchanan lurking in the background. We were six points adrift at the bottom of the bottom division with a team decimated by Dolan and then utterly destroyed by Hateley. If it wasn't for Joyce, we'd have gone into the Conference in 1999. Would we have recovered from that, given the power grab that Hinchliffe and Buchanan were planning? I have my doubts. I very much doubt we'd have been a Premier League side within a decade too. Warren Joyce made mistakes, and he is far form the best manager we've ever had, but he's the most important, and all City fans should be grateful to him for the job he did in the Great Escape season.
