Mellon gone and Hughes incoming

Bottom line is, no one really knows anything. Very easy to put 2 & 2 together and say Mellon was always off to Tranmere now that it's happened, however the stories of the board being unhappy with him have been around for months. Hearsay again, but what I was told is that certain members of the board weren't happy with the way he was reneging against the development strategy and wanting to do things his way. This eventually cost him his job. The writing had been on the wall for a while and it was a matter of getting the season finished and he was gone. He clearly wasn't happy towards the end of the season, his body language said as much, so its suited all parties in the end.

I dont think Micky had any intention of going back to Tranmere until it was clear that his position here was beyond help. Its funny though that MM was apparently wanting to fill the squad with players in their late 20s, which creates the best platform for the youngsters, and the board seemingly wants those youngsters put in the shop window.

The next appointment has to be right, the balance of the squad must be right across the pitch and age range, and sell when the time is right, and i have no confidence this will happen!
