    I doubt it's the latter to be honest.

    There was a programme about 10 years ago on Peterborough United, and they brought in Ron Atkinson for his football experience.
    If I remember it didn't end too well, and the then Peterborough manager ended up managing a North wales club in the league of Wales

    Spotted Neil Warnock last night in chippy Alley ( ooops sorry Caroline Street ) munching on Chicken Off Bone Curry n Chips from Dorothy's , like a magician he was using the condiments containers like a tactical chess board , bloody fascinating stuff tbh

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if the club tried though before making the same mistake.

    As for Russell Slade, how ironic that the club would ask our last equivalent of a Director of Football (albeit short lived) for advice?

    Didn’t they approach Dave Jones once to do something similar? But, it was then pointed out that, they were still paying him off after his recent sacking.

    Add that to anyone we are paying to pay on loan to another club.
    I wonder… are we still paying that Velaconja fellah?

    We don't need a director of football though...

    I think I nearly saw him come on as sub once...
    Perhaps in the future, future generations of City fans will listen in awed silence to the story of "How I nearly saw Velakonjar come on as sub once".

    I was only playing. My spelling's wrong too! I think his name was typed incorrectly three times (maybe four with mine) in the thread and it just tickled me.

    Anyway, the current Man U manager can always be referred to as 'he who must not be named' considering his connection with us. That always gets me out of jail. More letters but easier on the eye!

    That's interesting because I heard that if you play it backwards using an old Vinyl disc thing it sounds like Korneilyus.
