Me!

Agreed, so why is the club being castigated for both Lloyd and Wilkins doing the jobs for which they are paid to do?

You've totally lost me now. You initially say you want DW back as manager, and then you agree with BoF that he should not return as manager.

I'm not sure where all the lack of respect to Wilkins is being shown though. He was appointed because he was cheap (on £30k a year basic), did a fair job, and was sacked because he didn't get on with some of the board, the exact details of which are not for public consumption. He was offered a...

Prove it!

Both you and I have absolutely no idea where that might be though.

I agree with you 100%.

He also had a squad that had played in the Championship the previous season. We can all manipulate the statistics to suit our own ends, and I'm just playing devil's advocate as are other people. The only difference is that I don't have anything against Knight, Wilkins, Whote, Adams or McGhee...

True, but the budget should also take into account all the players that were released at the end of last season.

Which is exactly the point I am trying to make. Which makes me query why so many bring up the issue of finishing seventh last season. You and I have no idea how the team would have fared under Wilkins this season. I don't think he should have been sacked for footballing reasons, my...

It's equally reasonable to compare Wilkins first season with Adams' first season. Where have you found the figures for the budgets from?

Using the LP never fails formula of W=0.5M +7, where W is the woman's age, M the man's age, then you should aim for someone who has just turned 30, and probably feeling a little vulnerable and worrying about being left on the shelf. Start with a little flirting, flowers, a nice meal or two...

Absolutely, Mark McGhee was appointed part way during the season in a side that was relegated from the Championship the previous season, and got us promoted that season. Dean Wilkins was appointed part way during the season in a side that was relegated from the Championship the previous season...

Not really, I certainly don't understand why BigGully wants to include Dean Wilkins youth team results or Adams results at Coventry and Leicester, as it is Brighton we are talking about.

I suspect that KPMG just played by the insolvency rules, which are more of a disgrace than the accountants themselves. No one in their right mind would write off £17million, but I suspect that Bates is a cunning old fox and covers his tracks very well. I feel genuinely sorry for proper Leeds...

How exactly does that prove my stupidity?

It was a contributory factor in the sacking of Mark McGhee though, but not for the sacking of Dean Wilkins.

Someone said that we should judge Wilkins and Adams on results, I just Googled the said results, I have not said anything judgemental.

True, when he took over he had a much lower budget than the current one.
