FAO Pants

Sorry for bringing to the top. You can't say Huckerby came in and saved Worthington. We had just reached the play offs the season before (something no other manager even nearly achieved) and had got off to a decent start, winning all our home games and drawing away in a game when 2-0 up. Hardly a manager about to be sacked.

Worthy getting in Hucks and Crouch is something worth praise, not something worth using to say "well that's the only reason he did well, if Roeder had it we'd be league winners" I mean, Roeder's had money to bring in Taylor, Lita, Ched, not to mention about 14 others. He's hardly been a pauper. And where are we in the league?
