Come round!

We could be lukewarm together.

The biggest plus I see at the moment is that it would probably insulate against being stuck in a lower league forever (probably). And of course he might be great - I'm not denying that possibility.

We had enough money this year, but we screwed it up. I don't object to the current model- I object to the club (in some respects) being badly run. Unfortunately I think we're in danger of becoming an aspect of Webber's psychodrama .... don't blame me, you asked me to do an impossible job.
In effect, ironically enough, he's given up - and I suspect his views have seeped into the owners' minds.
