    What does Ferdinand have to do with it?

    I say good luck to NW as proves time and time again that he can get teams out of this division. I can't believe that some were saying that they didn't want him back at QPR. I even remember someone saying that we would finish higher than Cardiff. <doh> Chance missed.

    The first sentence is valid, the second sentence isn't and is a moot point.

    I’m assuming Warnock wouldn’t work with a DoF..... hence the reason he didn’t stay after he came back.

    So not our 'current', but any DoF - and you're assuming anyway.

    Cardiff were second from bottom when NW took over. That's a worse position from when he took over us. People who dislike him for whatever reason are missing the point from a footballing perspective and are letting their prejudice cloud their judgement. Holloway or Warnock for instance ... Mmmm, ponder?

    He didn't stay because his wife Sharon was seriously ill.

    Correct.
    Warnock is an old fashion manager and runs his business to suit.

    I’m sure he has nothing against Ferdinand with the exception that a DoF would cramp his style.

    As per the article, Warnock runs the whole show and wouldn’t have time or patience to have to run things by a DoF.

    I like the old school way.

    Yes, l remember that Nines but l thought that there may have also been issues at the club, regarding the direction it was going.

    Again, it’s only my perceived thoughts on the club and Warnock.

    It doesn't matter if there was a DOF or not, NW's character would have rendered the DOF superfluous to requirements and would do it his own way regardless. He would listen to the DOF, nodded his head and carried on with whatever he planned anyway and dismissed the DOF.

    There was no other issues, NW said he didn't want the job due to his wife's illness. He may have changed his mind in a short space of time but by that time JFH was already in the frame and it was too late. I think this was mentioned on the podcast posted elsewhere on here this week.

    Pretty relaxed, we need Cardiff to slip up against reading and they are useless, so expecting a play off game against derby

    I have no problem if Fulham go up or Cardiff tbh. Yeah Cardiff fans were dicks at the play-off final but it has nothing to do with the team 15 years later. Fulham play good football and deserve something but I don't really care who goes up.

    C'mon Fulham!

    Fulham deserve to go up as they are the best footballing side that I've seen ( with my own eyes ) this season. Good luck Steve.

    I'd like to see Fulham play Millwall in the play-offs. Is that still possible?

    Am I prejudiced against NW? Absolutely! I can't stand the man, I hate the image he brings, I hate the disingenuous crap he spouts before and after every game, i hate his **** eating grin and i hate the fact the cretin is damned good at this promotion lark.

    Would have preferred NW even if it was at the expense of our DoF. Not a believer in DoFs - too many cooks.
