Ok, it's true. I am buying the club so I can reinstate myself as manager.

A bit like Barry Fry.

I like the cut of your jib. I'm in.

Look, I am not often ITK but this has been mentioned to me by 3 people I trust today. And they know their shit.

I won't waft names as it appears we have a couple of options.

I don't normally believe such crap and my natural disposition is to pull a face about it.

But I reckon this is on.

Did they say anything on the manager? The dark days of Ads must not return.

I can't help but think that, just as SGT2 was a pale imitation of SGT1, Ads2 will be even worse than the sub McLeishian bollocks which was Ads1

You can arrange our meetings on my volcano island. We will meet every Thursday and there will be dips.

Can I punch the air with you when we draw at home to Burnley next season?

Never go back. Or forward. Or whichever way the lava is.

I actually think your short tenure at our darkest moment made all the difference. I salute you.

Can I be assistant Ads. Only to be hated by all and suspended on full pay for a few years?
