Their players will go to other Championship clubs.

We don't fit that criteria.

Barry Bannan please. Arguably too old for the Championship but can run rings round the likes of Exeter, Stevenage and Wimbledon!

It’s a joke Worcester.

How do you know we got a good manager he needs time, because you can’t be going off his previous experience or if you are you have pretty low expectations.

We know after first 10-15 games if he’s a league 1 manager of any note, and any higher we’d have to wait and see in following seasons. Unlike you I haven’t made my mind up on him yet.

He's signing for West Brom on a 12 month deal, apparently.

Well I can go on reputation and the work he did at an elite academy. All positive in my opinion, as were the plaudits he received at Rochdale when they had zero money.

But you are right, time will tell and results are the name of the game.

I'm confident.

Bad times for Shef Weds fans.

Got to feel for them.

As bad as Tan is, at least he’s not that bad.

In reply to Worcesters post above
Well, I understand your confidence based on his reputation and the work he did at an elite academy – and you're right, the praise he received at Rochdale, especially given the lack of financial support there, is encouraging.
But as always, time will tell. Results are ultimately what matter.
That said, there are some fans on that site who genuinely feel sorry for us – and not in a complimentary way. Some of the comments are quite scathing. Here’s the link if you haven’t seen it yet:

Speaking from experience, I’ve often come across people in work whose CVs seemed “too good to turn down,” but once they were in the job, they proved to be completely ineffective. Some people simply have a knack for sounding impressive without backing it up in practice. I really hope that’s not the case here and that he lives up to the standard he’s led us to believe he’s at.
He’s inherited a squad with a few decent players, but it’s still a weak and unbalanced team – as we saw last season. I personally don’t have an issue with an inexperienced manager taking the reins; as you rightly say, some have done well. But in fairness, many of them started with better squads than the one BBM now has.
Like most on here, I’ll be backing him fully and really hope he proves the doubters wrong.

Remember not only has Bale and his Consortium got to buy us they have to have big money available to take us up 2 Divisions.

So why waste more money buying if they don’t have to
