    Lets compare two players who were signed by different managers for roughly the same amount eh, about 1.5 mill... Georghi Hristov & Mike Sheron.
    Wouldn't we all say they were both a waste of money, but Sheron was arguably the biggest disappointment.
    What about Tinkler , Krizan and Markstedt ?

What happened next? Then 11/12 Butterfield, Vaz Te, Drinkwater, Davies and the team broken up after a total demolition of Leeds on New Years Eve. Then onto last season. That doesn't need any reprise. The problems remain the same and they start higher up than Heckingbottom. Where this differs though is the 2010/11 team was built by Robins the 2011/12 was built by Hill. The 2016/17 team was built by Lee Johnson and Danny Wilson. The 2017/18 team was built by Paul Heckingbottom. No one else has had Championship money to spend on consecutative seasons which is more than the previous incumbents can boast. (Hill being an exception as he had to work under ffp two years early walking a tightrope with two broken legs). Even though his personality alone made me glad to see Mr Cryne present him his p45.

    We cant be taken over quick enough.

    Go on then steve lets have a name who can do better than hecky under the present club plan ?

    What about them, I was asking about two players who cost us roughly 1.5 mill. We didn't pay that much for those players did we, but I do agree that they were naff, and in Tinkler's case he was naff AND over rated!.

    I thought Tinkler and Krizan were decent , Krizan got crippled in a match against the Blunts ( Devlin ) never recovered after that , Markstedt always looked weak apart from an outstanding performance at Anfield when Wardy won us the match , i still think that second half lasted about 3 hours

    In 1997 the money Wilson wasted was a serious sum , Tinkler was 750k , Krizan 450k , not sure about Markstedt , what ever it was it was too much .

    Look Danny had his day in the sun and fair play to him for making our dreams come true but time is a great barometer of a managers worth and it's set at league one play off , anything above that level and he failed .

    It is what it is and I don't write the history .

    He's probably what we need right now though , look at some of the players he has unearthed , he has a strong connection here , has an eye for spotting talent , he signed some duffers , but overall he brought more good players here than bad , and has done that at every club he has been at ,

    I said the other week he could do a good job as a director of football type role , loads of experience and seen both sides of football .

    I don't dislike the bloke at all , feckin hell he relegated wendy and they've never seen the PL since .

    Just don't buy the god like status despite his first spell here .

    And the God like status regarding Bobby Hassell is becoming cringeworthy too , how has he dropped so lucky down here , disliked by all when he first joined , then turned into an hero ( fair enough ) looked after given a yrs contract but never played , testimonial , went to play in India ? And drops on his feet back here , nice work Bobby lad , what is his role exactly

    That is the main reason why I went off Keef, it was his somewhat ignorant attitude and those comments about the tightrope were just pathetic weren't they. I/we couldn't say that he would've been a much better manager if he didn't have the Ffp forced on him, but that subject does cross my mind the more I think about it.
    As for the proposed takeover Ponty, I really don't know whether this will be a good thing or not, but I know its got to happen of course because of Mr.Cryne's ill health.
