Wilcox - a dour Yorkshireman, previously part of a long-established management duo with a louder-mouthed colleague. The angry one got sacked and he replaced him. Yes, that sounds like a whole new direction to go!

Difference is he turned a struggling mid table team into a team who got promoted after a world record unbeaten run.

I would take him in a flash

Seems utterly ridiculous to me. If he'd done a worse job last season and had got them into the play offs where they'd narrowly missed out then he'd probably still be in a job.

Yes. Barmy isn't it?

I suppose it's all about expectations.

Wonder if they'll go back to Laws?

Seems harsh, they've had about 600 injuries this season too.

I'm guessing he won't be 'going again' on Saturday now.
