A Good Question, Mr Hawes.

Well, thinking about it.

If the times comes, we aren't going to get or attract any of the "big name" Managers, even those currently not working-Keegan (who would be FANTASTIC), Jewell et al.

And we're not going to be able to afford someone already in work with a solid contract-JFC, the coach at West Ham, unproven and fairly unknown, cost us £125,000 and we had to haggle some of that away via Ashton's England clause.

The Board will look for an "up and coming" No.2 again, of that, I'm certain. Clark has worked at the top level, the "megastars" at Chelsea like and respect him and speak very highly of him and, with all thats going on there, he can't feel 100% safe in his job.

Maybe it would suit all parties if he moved on and Chelsea would be agreeable to fairly reasonable terms if that was the case?

Just a thought.
