    I also don't get the hang up on the whole Promotion experience on cv line.

    It's served us well with the last few morons hasn't it.

    We’ve got a decent squad though, he’ll be tasked with preparing us for the play offs now. Good luck to him, at least he wants to be here.

    But KLD is investing now. You said it yourself re Matete. Proper 6 figure bids

    We can build that squad. We just need a manager that knows how to win.

    LJ wasn’t a winner. McCann has proven he can win in this league.

    Frankly couldn’t give a stuff right now what he does the following season in the championship.

    He is effectively mentally injured at present and needs a rest.

    Hopefully its Keane giving the owners an ultimatum, give me what I want or I'm not taking it. Clutching at straws here!!

    Why? The chairman who managed to get a tinpot club promoted when we keep trying and failing? He seems to know how to do it better than our lot do.

    Knew this would happen. "Its not Keane, so I'm not going to be happy no matter who it is". McCann is nothing like Parkinson, their football is very different. At Doncaster, McCann was very attacking and he's shown that he is willing to change approach when needed- something that Johnson was constantly criticised for not doing (though he was also criticised for tinkering so, sometimes, I have to wonder what people want). He's got a team out of this league recently, so that should please the people that think that is some kind of prerequisite. No one really knows what kind of character he's going to be because we don't see him on the telly all the time doing an ersatz Cloughy impression. He could be a ****ing marvel or he could be useless but then exactly the same could have been said of Keane.

    Our last moron wasn’t a promotion specialist. He was a mid table specialist. This is completely different to LJ.

    As bad as Flanagan has been
    He also had a few good points and early in the season had some good games
    He also helped Doyle with his experience
    He them fell back into his old ways of poor performances
    However to get rid of a capable center half with no replacement was criminal

    So? I’m saying that Darragh Macanthony’s opinions on how to get promoted to the championship being ignored are pretty ****ing stupid frankly. Whilst we potter around down here failing every season and laughing at all the “tin pot” clubs that are doing things better than us…

    Jack Ross is still the best manager we've had in this league and Stewie Donald spent a lot more on transfers than the billionaire KLD has.

    Just saying.

    I think I'd rather have Neil than McCann.

    I'd rather have Colin until end of season truth be known but that doesn't seem to be an option.

    I’d rather have Neil as well myself.

    I’m no McCann fanboy. I wouldn’t have appointed him. He’s just nowhere near as bad an appointment as people are making out.

    Now would be a good time to announce a major change in share ownership
