    Right so therefore it is very important they get the right people in for the long term not rush to appoint someone to appease certain people. Being thorough is important and I aml heartened it’s being done right

    It's a position that should in the medium to long term easily pay for itself through the profits from player sales too.

    Well if the list put up by the bookies for our potential realistic new manager was anything to go by we have done the right thing

    McCall had a recruiter in Greg Abbott but he kicked against that at the time. McCall hung himself out to dry by stubborn refusal to bring in free agents when injuries hit, poor tactics which were toothless attack and appalling defending.

    The idea was put to the club 12 months ago and McCall was more than happy with it. Like anything we always react rather than proact. To be fair to Sparks this is the first time we actually look anything proactive.

    I think like Trueman is showing Mccall up, Sparks is now showing Rhodes up a bit as he's done in about 4 weeks what Rhodes either couldn't or wouldn't do in 2 years.

    I'm almost getting a little bit excited. Seems like there's actually some structure being put into place.
    Fully expecting us to be up and out of bed early on January, making some decent signings.

    But in reality, I am fully expecting to be completely underwhelmed by our lack of activity in the transfer window. I really hope I'm wrong.

    Loved the quote from sparks- "The January transfer window is an important one for us, AS IS ALWAYS THE CASE"
    Has he not been here long?
    But it is the season to be jolly, so Turnbull go out and get 'em!
    Let City fans see some action in a few days time.
