The same Saunders that built a team that just got promoted from League One.

Who do they think will take that job now?

Megson & Coyle joint favourites :lol:

Truly, a "club in crisis".

I would argue as much as the Dingles if not more Bobo. Haven't they already contracted £20,000,000 worth of ground improvements? If they try to cancel I'll bet there's some whopping penalty clause. Also even with parachute payments to soften the blow, their wage bill (cos they didn't put clauses in player's contracts for this relegation :roll: ); stands at a basic £25,000,000. It could be they were paying Saunders a hefty wage to keep them up, but with a clause included should they go down. Part of me should feel sorry for the fans, but I remember the '70's and that fvcking underpass near their ground................................I hope they end up in the Blue Square...

I can't stop chuckling to myself about the fact they announced that they would be upgrading the capacity of their ground to 56,000 and then the very next day dropped into the relegation zone!! I have this vision of Crawley or Rochdale rocking up with about 50 fans! Just hope that they are in league 1 or 2 when the ground improvements are complete!

And don't feel sorry for the fans Il Pirate, they through pies at Lofty remember. Not hot-dogs or burgers, but PIES!!!!! :crazy:

... and then Muriel complained that Lofty had taunted them. Mean faced bitch.

I've never forgiven them for the Sammy Chung team winning 0-1 at Burnden in '76 and condemning us to another year in Div. 2 after we'd led the bloody thing for 7 months.

Or for getting Peter Reid to go on strike to get a release.

Megson is only 28/1.

I could see Megson doing quite well there. Coyle on the other hand...

Give over, where has this collective miasma appeared from that Megson would do any better?

He'd have them at each others throats within weeks. Its the perfect incendiary bomb to throw into their already disarrayed midst.

Exactly.

He's shit, and disruptive. It is, I am lead to believe in business circles, referred to as a virtuous circle.
