    Thats fine but will he be allowed to bring in his own players
    Season ticket sales well down no squad players worth selling
    or is investment on its way

    I too don't think he wil be staying (lack of commitment in my eyes)
    But why wait till after the Scunny match neither team will have anything to play for

    You mean two clubs with a rotten core when he took over ? He's been left with appalling players and no money to bring in the relative quality in either division. Give him the correct tools and he succeeds. You have to be a thoroughbred bellend not to see this

    John Docherty and Taylor are internet myths about being terrible as was Colin Todd.

    Now replace Docherty with Yorath and Taylor with Jackson and I will read beyond this sentence.

    Mitton group funny you mention them. Sponsors were upset at the remarks regarding our history as they ere not just sponsors but fans also. Rupp is doing a sterling job repairing damages that have been done.

    More talks tomorrow. All be well and looking likely Grayson will be leading our next campaign with a budget he and the owners deem competitive.

    I agree, yet if Grayson does sign with us the he must have asssurances that further investment is due to subsidise the lower season ticket sales, otherwise he won’t take the job. Got a feeling he’s only going to manage us next season if he feels we have a very very competitive (top 3/4) budget. He won’t risk his reputation for nothing

    Where your point falls down is Grayson knew what he was coming into regards city as the transfer window had already closed so that was his choice.
    He came to city to put his face back out there if things had gone well and we had scraped into a play off place he would be hoping for a Championship club to come and get him.

    Fail at two managerial jobs running and you usually wait a while to get another go.

    Docherty being terrible is an internet myth? Sniffing those soap suds must have played havoc with the old grey matter.

    and Yorath in comparison? What about Jackson in Comparison to Taylor? Or Wetherall in comparison to Todd?

    Selective memory.

    100% spot on. 3 months ago we needed Grayson, Now he needs us and that is why compromises will be met.

    How is that selective memory, i never quoted them in my reply. I quoted Docherty because it was a laughable comment. I wouldn't watch football again if i had to watch anything resembling his managerial reign.

    Wouldnt that be great wealthy owners splashing the cash to hopefully get a better return on their investment when we're in the Championship :).

    You are correct that you said during last closed season and I replied asking if it was the same sponsors that is was rumoured were leaving their shirt sponsor ship? Don’t think I ever mentioned a time.
