He's great in the transfer market and usually that's what DOF's are for really. I think Phelan was up for working with Ole? Or maybe he just wanted the big job for himself but really Ole's a young manager but needs a manager/coach whose done it all and seen it all. I know Bolton aren't doing too well at the moment but look at Freedman with Lennie Lawrence behind him etc. Wouldn't be surprised if Ole's on the buzzer to Fergie on what to do, how to turn it around etc. Dalman should talk to Ole about bringing someone in. Even Paul Lambert has Roy Keane as his no.2 now

When I said this in January, I was totally shot down for it.

I'm not sure that Fergie will have much wisdom to impart about how to arrest a slump of such magnitude in the Championship - not really an area in which Fergie had much experience!
Agree about the number 2 though. Think it's a bit late for that now though as it would seem to undermine his authority.

We both said that we would accept it yet we always said that he was the wrong man
