It is hard to get the right manager at the right time for the right squad.

And you are not always going to get in right.

On Stills appointment they could instead have.

Kept with Rusk - there would be an out cry of no ambition

Gone Rooney/Gerrard/Lampard type, out cry of big name, no imagination.

Gone for an experienced championship manager, Carrick/ Cooper/ Rohl type and maybe that is what we should have done.

Go as we did with a manager who hs had success on the continent. It has worked for other clubs in the past, Sunderland, Brighton, Palace etc. Some say it's ambitious, too clever etc, truth is sometimes it pays of, other times it doesn't. It looks like it hasn't again, so there are big decisions to be made.

Sunderland were turned down by Still, and so they went for Le Bris, who had just been sacked by Lorient after getting relegated from Ligue 1.

Of course now they’re what, top 4 of the Prem. The whole sport is a complete bloody lottery, to be honest.

Yeah, managers/players, outside of the real elite, is complete luck at how well they’ll do when joining a new team.

Firstly the idea that you're going to escalate straight from a few songs to a late walk in and blocking the northam fan zone in a week is for the birds.

But my two main questions around this are:

The hierarchy of what exactly?

Who the **** is Mike Kavs? <laugh>

The hierarchy are a load of wums, spamming the saints timeline about how hard they are and how much oppositon should fear them. Probably a load of teenage virgins, in reality.

Right. Glad I asked.

Who is Mat Kavs and why is he not 'aloud'?
 
Don't think that tells us much really. Even if it wasn't negatively affecting him he's not going to come out and say it.
