That's the question DJ asked during an interview for his new role at Sheffield Wednesday.

Well let's look at your statement after the FA Cup Final Dave, you said and I quote "If we don't push on from here we will need shooting" .
Well Dave we didn't push on and in my opinion you deserved to get sacked. No doubt about it for me.
By the way classy touch Dave when you asked Mandaric to "Make the change and then we will talk". Very classy Dave suggesting sacking another manager. Very classy.

Not sure what you expect him to say? Obviously he would want the job. A lot of managers would have negotiated when they already had a manager

If anything I would say it shows how respectful DJ is for not negotiating when they already had a manager but thats me.

Well for me saying nothing would have been better than saying make the change and then we will talk.
But maybe it's just me.![]()

Comes over to me that Jones is rubbing it in. He should have said but then again we are talking about an arrogant individual who thinks the world owes him a favour.

Annis I just listened to his first interview with BBC Radio Sheffield and he has just said to the interviewer "Going by your behaviour in the press conference I think I must of walked into a hell hole". The question is how long before he bans BBC Radio Sheffield from his press conferences.
I think someone should buy this idiot a copy of How To Win Friends And Influence People. I wouldn't want to inflict this idiot onto my worst enemy his ego and arrogence are quite frankly unbelievable.

"Going by your behaviour in the press conference I think I must of walked into a hell hole...(DJ & interviewer both laugh) then DJ says "no"... and talks about the club"
Leaving out the laugh and the word "no" changed the entire sentence IMO.

SW are currently in the play off frame, he has got to "get" promotion to the Championship or else? Time will tell!

When he joined City he was a very funny guy, very witty, very dry but funny, I remember they had a charity Q&A at the Marriott hotel when he took over (I think Sam was part of it as well).
DJ had everyone in stitches, then overtime his words got twisted and twisted just like you did above and in the end he became arrogant and twisted and never wanted to deal with the media.

With only 12 games to go surely even MM isnt that harsh, these arent even DJ's players. Maybe your right though but DJ wont care as it will be a good pay out.
