Surely people can see it COULD be beyond a coincidence
What, Duzza, that we are looking for a manager and a shite one gets the boot? Bit tenuous if you ask me.
Reid, Royle or Souness

Apart from luck there are three ways out of this division and in to the promised land.
1. Relegated clubs with parachute payments spent wisely. I think we can discount that one.
2. High profile manager, spends tons of money attracting half decent players gets out of division quickly or burns. Tigana, Souness maybe Ince.
3. Promising younger or experienced at this level manager who builds a team and team spirit over a couple of seasons. Grayson, Holloway, Cotterill and one I've mentioned earlier but nobody else seems to have picked up on, Geraint Williams at Colchester. Great record at a small club, could he repeat it at a bigger one?
Any appointment is a gamble, MM needs to decide what his strategy is.

His predecessor, who got them to the championship, managed half a season at Hull. He's had one decent season with what he inherited - unlikely to be repeated this year.

Cotteril is more than likely signing on Monday. Read his interview in the times. There are some strong hints in there.

That isn't my interpretation of the piece.
It appears to be nothing more than junk journalism.

If your referring to this story in The Times I think its one of the laziest pieces of journalsim ive read recently.

The online version is altered to the print version in order to achieve a hit point/click through as well.
The print version is so santitised is has to rate as one of the most worthless articles I've read this year.
Pathetic non-story.
& i was under the impression The Times was one of the more relevant tabloids.
