MS, I don't disagree but who is the best coach if its not SG??  Names such as Mark Warburton or Paul Lambert have been mentioned but how do we know they are the right ones either??  Any managerial appointment is a risk whoever you are, most of the time its about financial backing, which we now have so who knows if SG will be better or worse than others?  We as a club are in unchartered waters for us, mistakes will be made, for me its about getting results with the new signings we should now be able to make and if SG does that then great, if not get rid.  I ma not advocating writing off next season, I just don't think DC is going to make a change between now and the start of next season anyway.

Who is the right man isn't 100% clear. What is 100% clear is that it isn't SG.

What is the point in spending money on getting the best crew if you don't have the best captain. We need to be looking for the next Eddie Howe, a bright intelligent thinker.

Mark Warburton has had two great seasons at Brentford. He is an intelligent bright thinker, so much so that even Glenn Hoddle was surprised at his ideas in a football debate.

Nicky Mellon has turned Shrewsbury around in one season. He has tightened up their defence, only conceding 31 goals but still scoring 67 goals so getting promoted on 89 points.

Jimi Floyd Hasselbaink has continued where Gary Rowett left off at Burton and led them to promotion.

Karl Robinson has finally led MK Dons to promotion despite having to sell his best player each season. His reputation for improving young players means that he often gets the best loan players from top clubs.

There are four names to start with, all of whom might lead us to promotion. They might not. SG definately won't. I see little point is wasting a big chunk of the kitty on SG's choices of players when he will be sacked in September with the money spent & another season already in tatters.
