Garde has been handed the poison pill in the chalice from the palace. We should endeavour to keep him but the majority of the rest including Lerner need to go, and quick. Without the PL bonus we could be languishing in lower divions for a while. Lerner isn't prepared to spend shinola. It is hard to write never mind consider our projects. We have been cattle trucked since Lerner fecked Martin O'Neill off and that is a while now..back to the early 70's misery now.

As long as he avoids the vessel with the pestle. No, wait.

We actually had some good times in the 70s including winning the League Cup twice. We got to visit small clubs like - er - Bournemouth!

When I believed that the board would not be so stupid as to stitch up Remi Garde in the transfer window, I expected him to stay for next season and we would come back immediately.  Those bets are off.  If Remi stays he will only do so if they honour the commitments made to him about money available.  The January debacle now makes me suspect nowhere near adequate money will be provided and Remi will walk.  Enter somebody like Pearson and the best we can hope for will be a play off place next year

It's the prospect of a skuzz bucket like Pearson turning up that would be the final humiliation for me.

As shit as McLeish, Lambert and Sherwood have been, at least they appeared to be fundamentally decent human beings. A bit too full of bullshit in Lambert's case and generally full of himself in Sherwood's, but decent.

Pearson would be scrapping the bottom of a barrel that's in the basement beneath the barrel we fished O'Leary out of.

We'd probably go for Billy Davis anyway.

They are stopping expense claims at the Academy. 10p a mile petrol allowance will soon be gone.

If that's not a classic sign of an accountant taking the reigns with an obvious agenda, I really don't know what is.

That's a classic sign of an organisation in desperate cash management actions.  As one of my former bosses put it, "the time to worry is when they ask you to keep tabs on the stationary cupboard.  If you're down to counting how many Bic biros we go through in a month the game's already up."

Are we down to Ellis like not being able to claim £1.50 for a coffee and a sandwich yet?


That's exactly what I was thinking. We're truly fucked.

Any budding writers out there, start taking notes. There could be another 'Children of the Revolution' one day.
