I’d take it all with a pinch of salt and I think it’s all a bit of kidology. .

Lee Hughes and notts county were ostracised on here saying he should not play football again because he’s a ****.
Now PW gets stick for having the morals of wanting to create a culture of good people.

He usually only gets stick from one poster on particular who seems to think wanting decent people and a harmonious group is somehow a weakness.

That might well be true, but my point is the comment “TS needs to back PW” is far too simplistic,

TS might be backing him, we just don’t know.

Remember the rumour that PW didn’t want Kelly?

Might be just that, a rumour, but maybe true.

Is it any business of your employer whether you have an affair? Unless you're in the Cabinet and are having an affair with a Russian agent or something.

Or letting your mum argue with the manager

That could be career limiting

ie too colourful

Yes entirely possible as warne said himself,and probably the most I have heard him lean that way and softening on that stance.but has never gone down that route yet and I am not sure he ever will in all honesty..

I do believe that TS is backing PW, but I also think that the players PW is wanting are good players that other teams also want so it's not necessarily just TS saying yes you can have him and it's a done deal. UTM

No maybe not, but such a stance limits the total number of available players.

So we shouldn’t be too upset if there are no signings

Ts does back pw but not to the standard it needs to be in the championship.

It's bottom off the barell for the championship feeding from the left overs

Yep,we are probably already looking in to a relatively small pool of players in the first place,so limiting that will only add to the problem…

It probably is if it's his wife you're having an affair with ;D
