I'm sure any potential applicant would ignore the rumours and scaremongering by the small vocal minority from the fishy  ;)

Neither Phil Brown or John Fenty will be bullied by the Fishy in selecting the right manager.  Whoever he is.

I don't think there is anybody anywhere who could in any way make Fenty select the 'right' manager - an impossibility

What a fukking mess.

Quoted from MuddyWaters

What a fukking mess.

Concise but true. Complacency and inaction and suddenly we are being sucked into a dogfight and are pinning our hopes on AN Other manager who may or may not work.

A pathetic transfer window, letting our best players go and getting worse in, it all looks to me like it is leading to a perfect storm.

The only possible bright spot is for a decent manager being brave enough to take it on and try to turn it all round.
