Good luck Mark. I will never forget the promotion in your first season and the final at the Millenium Stadium, keeping us up for the first time at Withdean in the 2nd highest league in English football against all the odds, playing in a piss poor stadium with no funds. Supporting the Falmer campaign and going on the marches, even though you had little chance of ever seeing it as BHAFC manager, trying to make a competative team with no money, unlike the £ 7 000 000 the present manager spent in the Summer and I thank you for that.

Going well until your dig at Poyet.

He usually has 2 good years at clubs before losing it a bit. Have no idea what has happened to Rovers, in the summer they had an up and coming new manager make a number of decent signings (with a new stadium on the way too?) Very strange how these things don't work out. Hope McGhee does well for them. They are a decent club who should not be so far away from being in the Championship.

It wasn't a dig, I didn't even mention his name. It is a fact, and a fact people need to consider when comparing McGhee with Poyet. Also the wage structure is probably 4 times higher now than when McGhee was in charge.

good manager for us although I have reservations about some of his man management techniques and views. Hope he does well for the Gas - they both deserve some success

You didn't need to mention him by name. You said the "present manager"
