Yesterday's man versus tomorrow's man.

We got the latter.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Michael was a Jolley good appointment,

Well done Fenty ( did I really say that ) ?

Is it a well done? It’s luck rather than judgement as the job was offered to Brown first.

Let’s not have this as some masterstroke appointment, we’d been turned down by more than one and we had very few options.

This season has still been a total horror show thanks to the board.

If I was the board, I'd have a quick look around at who is likely to be available, and unless there's some bright star that we are likely to afford, I'd offer Jolley the position now.

Fenty offered Brown the job but got turned down! Yet another example of how clueless the bloke is.

Once/if we are safe, then the ceasefire is over and hostilities must resume - FENTY OUT.

Any bright star will be called that because of what they have achieved. They wont come to us in our league position as its a high risk job if they fail to recruit well. Look what Slades recruitment got us. It will be Jolley job now. Fenty will see he can certainly organise the team properly and motivate them to achieve what they are capable of. He just neeeds to recruit the quality to move us up the table. Anyone else is an unecessary risk

Do we know for certain Brown was offered the job? It was just a rumour at the time.

Anyway who cares?!

There was clearly a discussion with Brown but that doesn't mean he was offered the job. He ruled himself out of the running but that doesn't necessarily mean he rejected an offer. I don't know either way.
