As someone said over the weekend Lerner wants to sell so cant see him spending a lot of money on backroom staff that a new owner will not want.

That's a bit underwhelming.

It's not Lerner spending money though is it. We can't be that flat broke that the club can't pay for its own staff.

I understood the whole point of the cost cutting was to help the club become 'self sufficient'

We don't know what capacity he is here in either. I would hope the assistant appointment will be the main brains behind the coaching. And this guy may only be a stop gap.

Exactly, all this constant fucking moaning about everything is getting a bit tiresome

I'd imagine that the moaning is due to four or five years of relatively constant disappointment. I agree though, we do tend to think the worst thing in the world to happen to the football club is lurking around the corner.

Let's win a few games and then no-one will give a flying fcuk who's sitting on the bench.

Spot on.

It would be fair to assume Sherwood may wait until the summer to see if he can get Ramsay in before deciding his long term team, and until then he has to focus on winning 4-6 football matches.

yep. It's a first team coach we are discussing which PL clubs have a number of. This role is very much in the background and shouldn't even be a significant topic of conversation. Having said that I think this is all part of a renewed interest in the club and new manager. We win Saturday and the sun comes out and Mark Robson is forgotten very quickly.

What sort of money would an assistant manager and other back-room staff expect to earn ?
