Not qualified or inexperienced as a Coach.
Said Webb was going
This bit I can believe.
Well youd better.

Highest earners & Biggest transfer potential .

He wanted as much budget for his war chest as possible. He saw Webb as a threat as there is only room for one FOP at the top !

His biggest shock was the list with his name on it. That’s the only thing we can be sure of. The rest is guesswork borne out of personal bias.

Marvin , Happe , Wilkinson & Wright & Coulson
That would fit into shock category, odd decisions for the most part bar Coulson who does look one league too far at present.

Is there a source behind this tuffers or just throwing it out there to see who bites?

You didn't hear all the effing and jeffing either. Did you actually listen to it?



When exactly is 7 mentioned?
Part 1, skip to just before 20:00. Video does jump around a bit not the easiest to navigate around.

Of course i have a source .

Some of us do know some people without the need to blurt stuff out.

Source :
Not part of the current set up but
someone who is still in contact
with some who are.
Hope thats good enough for you
As its about as much as all the speculation
going on by others.

I thought in the clip the list said 7 or 8 names
Not a definitive 7.


Also why is it odd that Fletcher would
clear out our big earners
And cash in the 300k for Marv ?

Seems pretty damned obvious to me

What concerns me with Ross as manager is whether he is too close to the players. Has he got the bottle to drop Coilson, Clay etc or to introduce some of the young professionals. Also we have Turley who I think would strengthen the defence. If available, it appears as though the team picks itself

Red o, absolutely, and of course he was correct. Sentiment doesn’t bring success and the fact is that mcnuff probably earns more than most but is unlikely to play , is not an experienced coach and in all truthfulness is a waste of cash.

What concerns me is - is he too close to ML? That's the worry.

It’s the owners cash and if they want to reward a person who made a massive contribution to our promotion last season and provides much behind the scenes this season, it’s up to them. Right decision in my opinion.

And you were doing so well today and then this farrago of imbecility pops up.

The fans are the club's biggest financiers.
