    With some pretty strong justification I'd say. I think given what had happened in the 5 years leading up to TS stepping in and the stigma that was later to befall the name of 'Rotherham' that we were much more likely to have headed in the direction of Wrexham than that of Manchester City. If we had then I'm not sure there would have been a couple of Hollywood 'angels' stepping in to try and save our fate 15 years down the line. He may be 'the light bulb king' but I'm glad he is. That doesn't mean to say he's perfect though, who is?
