It's the reality, mate.

Give Paul Hunt a ring.

Best was finished at the age of 27 - he went out drinking for an evening with my father at the age of 25.

I think to date anyone who has let the owners "know in no uncertain terms" anything at all has lost their job shortly afterwards so why should anyone now ?

Nobody will blame him for being as good as Raheem - who is one one of the world's best players - but he can make as much effort and have the same attitude. Sterling had some space in his garden at home and set up a mini-pitch so he could practice his shooting - Chapman would set up a mini-bar.

The owners paint the landscape - the manager - whoever it is - just has to add the finishing touches.

But what about tracking back, tackling , being fit enough to keep moving off the ball, having the discipline to defend set pieces ? Qualities that the likes of Raheem Sterling have but can Prince Harry make the effort ?

Waddling on to the pitch with a physique last seen on Cyril Smith might be the reason ?

The owners have no shortcomings at all then ?

If he doesn't know his budget how can he make the early moves in the market that people want ?

Correct - but there will be people coming on here to blame Mowbray for that.

Won't be us then

According to The Sun Cowley has said he wants to take a break from football.

Mowbray's waiting to hear his budget.

That's a blast from the past.I think it was just the one or maybe two seasons although as you say he could score goals from midfield. He has gone on to have a successful career in the brewery business.

Won the Derby yet again this year.

Kiefer Moore was sold yesterday to QPR.

Yes - Coventry and Wycombe are 2 of the clubs whose own position means that they are likely to oppose proposals to relax the FFP rules.

If we're buyers you are correct. The question is : will we be in that position ?

It's probably going to prove the case that with many clubs forced sellers transfer fees below the very top level will reduce.

Another poster made a statement about the Bank of India. Nobody has queried that statement. I drew a conclusion based on that statement - fail to see how that is "hypocritical". Of course there will be a barrow load of applicants - most of them presently unemployed. You are living in hope that somehow one of them would be better than Tony Mowbray - who would be expensive to move on with 2 years left on his contract. I am afraid that I am not as optimistic as you.

Noticeable that you don't address the actual point that was made.

Elsewhere on this board posters are talking about the Bank of India calling in loans and the club having to engage in a fire sale of assets. They might not be so keen in those circumstances ! On the general point in a normal situation I think the Cowleys would be an excellent fit for us - but our situation is not normal.

Based on the rumours they left Huddersfield after a disagreement regarding transfer policy. Do you really believe that they would want to work with our owners ?

Do you have a name in mind ?
