When we appointed Ole it was the sole decision of Mehmet Dalman to appoint the Norwegian but this time Tan Sri will make the decision on who the next manager is personally.

City had an allocation of 1700 for Derby on Saturday and sales are around 1400 at the moment.

The cup match against Bournemouth next Tuesday will see blocks 116 and 117 closed off and ticket office staff will be phoning approximately 300 fans who have already purchased tickets that they will be moved to another section.


Who ever you are? you were spot on today :thumbright:

Totally agree Annis we want to go forward not back. We want a Manager who understands what is required and has the ability to motivate players, just as Pulis did to a Palace side down and out last season.

Tan is quite simply out of touch, do you know what Steve Borley's view is on this sorry affair.

Although many including Annis probably wouldn't agree i think Dave Jones has got to go down has one of our greatest ever managers. He did something I thought I would never see in my lifetime in taking us to an FA Cup Final day a day I will never ever forget and I have supported City over 40 years now :old:

However I think appointing Jones again would be a backward step at the end of the day he failed both in the Cup Final and the Play Off Final although to be fair he wasn't given the resources of either Malky or Ole, but appointing Dave Jones again would split the fan base. This is something we can't afford we have to ALL get behind the Manager and personally I think the only Manager who can do that is Tony Pulis if appointed the fans would get behind him and probably be prepared to give him the rest of the season?

The alternative is if we appoint Dave Jones either has A DOF ot out right Manager and we are Mid table or lower by Jan then we could be back where we are now looking for a new Manager with the difference being Pulis or any other creditable alternative will no longer being available :cry:

Personally I think even after just 7 games we are looking at Play Offs at best and if we don't get this appointment right I think we will finish between 7th and 15th :o :old:
