Annis you bark on about how much wages he's paid etc, but think about how much he has made by buying cheap and selling for expensive

R.Johnson 275K sold 5 mill
Chops 500K sold 5 mill brought back for 3mill
Ross 100K sold 250K
Mclean free sold 500K
Burke Free now worth 2 mill
Bothroyd 200K now worth 4/5 mill
Whitts 275K now worth 2 mill

I could go on.............

Fowlers wage was far too much but most people were happy to see him here, know one would ever thought (at the time) we could get a player like him, the extra tickets, shirts etc would have gone a long way to paying for his wages.

Now im not stupid to admit that DJ has his faults and comes across as arrogent and not bothered, but lets face it, he's given us a lot of good years, i think some of supporters need a reality check, we have no devine right to be where we are.

I do however think DJ should get us up this year, as he has had money to get the players he wants, he actually has a big enough squad for once, so if at the end of the season we arent promoted then maybe it is time to say thank you very much but its time to move on. To want him sacked now is pathetic! :ayatollah:


I think its worth adding that DJ has been given a state of the art training centre and a £50m new stadium to work with during his tenure and we are still a Championship side.

Fortune favours the bold and the bold move is not repeating the mistakes of past seasons, it's cutting your losses now before any more predictable damage is done and getting in someone new with fresh ideas.
