    I suspect that next season is too late for Mandaric. I don't think he's got anywhere near as much wedge as people think. He needs to get out this season otherwise he's in big doo-doo. Hence the panic. And panic changes rarely work.

    This is going to be fun to watch from a lofty perch, looking down on the mayhem below

    I think you are right Prague. I think Manderic has always been one step ahead of the game in his financial dealings and has so far succeeded but I reckon sooner or later it's going to catch up with him and when it does it might not be pretty.

    A very good manager. My take on this is that MM has conceded auto promotion and has appointed a manager for next season. I think they may have had a look at what SCP has done and realised that you can build a team that can play football without breaking the bank; and actually play your way out of this s*** league. Not popular I know, but the more teams that play football the better for me. I have loathed this league for the cr** football I have witnessed. threw in the ';' for fun.

    Seems like a decent manager but never quite achieved the targets that cardiff desired. He's got a big job on his hands and like Grayson, I think it might be too late for them to adapt to the new manager's playing style (whatever that is) - MK Dons to win the play-offs for me.

    Jones certainly knows the words to use to keep the Wendies fans happy.

    The BBC headline on his first interview after his appopintment reads: ''Sheffield Wednesday are a massive club ''- Jones lol....

    MASSIVE (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/massive)
    adjective
    1. consisting of or forming a large mass; bulky and heavy: massive columns = sounds like most of the Massive's team

    2. large and heavy-looking: a massive forehead (doesn't Megson have one of these)

    3. large in scale, amount, or degree: a massive breakdown in communications; massive reductions in spending. (sounds like Mandaric's relationship with Megson)

    4. solid or substantial; great or imposing: massive erudition.

    5. Mineralogy . having no outward crystal form, although sometimes crystalline in internal structure.

    I'm not sure he will last the season. Like CP last year, will try to get them playing football but less talent than Parky's squad. 8th place.
