I think you said but don't want to put words in your mouth that there's not a huge gulf between bottom ten in Premiership and top ten in championship and I agree.

Once price agreed, Warnock does his charm offensive with the player?

We still need at least 2 CMs and a right back but I'm a lot more hopeful in these deals and the manager.

i think Warnock feels he has something to prove and knows how horribly wrong it can go if not careful and his signings seem to reflect that.
not sure Malky fully understood tbh..your correct there was no structure { which is strange because he had been all about structure } it was almost as if he felt it would work no matter what and if not he would just toddle off and manage Everton or someone.

After the promotion Malky really let himself and the club down. Terrible business Medel aside

Totally agree. MM was given a budget of £25m and thought his job was to spend it. What it was spent on seemed to be a secondary concern.
Also often overlooked was the discarding of Rudy Gestede for £300k. I'm not saying RG would have been our saviour but he would have been a far better option than Acorn who as legend has it we paid £7.5m to get along with £45kpw wages.

I will always hold MM in esteem for the Championship winning season but as a Premier manager he was hopeless and out of his depth. Also the way he used the fans in his dispute with Tan was unforgivable.

Ask Neil.
Yes spoken about his dislike of premier league in the past
I think he has learned from it and will be better for it
