Why did Magoo get the job ? Because he was cheap and promised he wouldn't spend any cash.
If Dowie had got the job we would have been promoted but no he preferred a decent chairman like Simon Jordan.

Ernest in case you hadn't noticed, we DID GET Promoted!!

I suggest you go and get your Smellhurst season ticket sorted out

:wave: :wave:

Sorry, have I missed something? I thought we DID get promoted.

Ernest, I'm sure most of what you write is a joke but seriously, the joke is wearing just a little thin now. It's boring.

Steve, can you take him over to Nsp so we don't have to put up with him any longer? ;)

Sorry but at the moment if we DON'T sign
some decent proven 1st div (championship)
players we are goonered.
My gripe with knighty is he keeps handing
out contracts to players who would struggle in
the 2nd division..and we now the reason is
to keep it cheap !!!!!!!!!!

To be fair to Kilo - he is also a scout as well as a coach, and i think he will do a fantastic job
I wasn't having a go at JK, but do we really need 6 full-time coaching staff when it appears we haven't got enough money to sign players?

ive never really understood peoples problem with nepotism (sp?) - as long as the person is qualified or experinced for the job i dont care if they're a nephew, niece, cousin, daughter or whatever.

anyway back to the Coaching staff issue, its only a luxury if they do nothing. I bet they're on sensible salaries, and i suspect go off to scout when nothings doing with the reserves. You might have fogotten but the reason why we dont sign anyoine is because we are SKINT.

Isnt one of the commercial department, which must be one of the worst in any business a relative?

Any large company would have sacked our commercial department before now and installed somebody more efficient.

dont matter
There was a rumour a few weeks ago, that a coach over in Australia by the name of Mike Hickman, who has worked with McGhee before at Reading & Wolves, was coming over to join up with McGhee again.

I did start "can we have Ernest?" campaign but i was the only one to reply....somehow!

Just chuck him on ignore as he's getting too tedious.

Is this the same commercial department that for once pulled its finger out of its arse in the run up to the Cardiff final, which meant that for once the club shop was stocked to the rafters with Play-off gear, resulting in being incredibly busy and very profitable?

I'm no fan of Knight or much that goes on (or doesn't!) in the club behind the scenes but credit where credit is due with the effort made by the Commercial Dept in the week/s leading up to Cardiff
