Randy can win over the fans still by putting that amount in the table and doing the right thing manager wise by firing mcleish and going for a decent quality manager this time- if that means taking someone elses manager then so be it!

Mcleish can never win over the fans- his reign has been shambolic from day one and surely must end in the week or so.

We've moved on from that now to talking about the £50m summer warchest.

Do keep up!

Am I just miserable?  What’s the point in a 50m “warchest” one season and then nothing the next?
I’d prefer that the new manager was promised say 80m to spend over his 4 year contract so that he has to plan more long term.  As proven we cannot afford to spend even 30m net each summer.

Bah, it’s bullshit anyway.

I'll only believe in it if you can count to it, Maz.

John's right Lee.

We're already warming up the 'Jonathan Stead to replace Darren Bent' rumour.

What is McLeish playing at wanting Stead to replace Bent.

McLeish out! ;)
