You've never actually seen him play for the Albion then?
Silent Bob said:Utter rubbish. I'd rather have McCammon.
Tom Hark said:Indeed. Turned our 25 goals a season man into a 5 goals a season man by playing him in midfield or on the wing or leaving him on the bench in favour of a 4-5-1 with C-K-bloody-R upfront. Instead of just telling Leon to get in the damn box and stay there while the rest of the team aim the ball at him. I mean Doh!

Do you know for a fact McGhee isn't happy working with BB and DW? Assuming he stays, the management set-up wouldn't be - isn't - purely about McGhee. It's about everyone, including the players, and the players may well be perfectly happy with Bob Booker around, whatever talents he may possess or lack.
This may not be the case, of course, but I am not a position to say one way or the other. Are you?
BensGrandad said:No I am not but at least he should be given the chance to make the decision himself if he stays.
When he was appointed it was a condition of the appointment that whoever took the job had to keep BB and DW because DK had given them extended contracts. This may be regarded by you and others as showing loyalty to existing staff but I believe that it was misplaced.
How can MM be expected to shoulder all of the blame? There must be some that should be passed down to his subordinates.
If he choses, for whatever reason, to keep BB and DW you are then putting the results early next season down to him directly and could if the situation arose say on Dec 1st we are not in the position in the division that we expected so you are sacked for gross inefficiency then would you have to pay up his contract? I would think not!! We are thus getting the best of all worlds keeping McGhee and the investor happy, being top of the division on Dec 1st and keeping the supporters happy and if not changing the management completly with sufficient time remaining to make a realistic 2nd challenge for promotion..
