1.when Dickov was appointed was there only Sir John Ryan on the board?

2.if you read my post properly they can't put 50 quid on McCann because he has been taken out of the feckin betting.

Point 1: He made the decision and that came from his own mouth.

Point 2: it would be that amount of money that took him out of it. It means nothing wait until tomorrow afternoon or Thursday morning

If it did come out of his own mouth I must have missed it,then that was the biggest and only mistake he made,if it is McCann it will be three big mistakes made by the money men,clearly going for a,yes I can do it on that budget man.

It did I was there when he said it. It isn't McCann either. Not a bad budget to have given it was the 8th highest last season

Yeah right, all I can say is that he wasn’t one of the three as to who they have chosen that I don’t know and will find out like everyone else

So let me get this straight,they invite 2+1 to a second interview and don't pick any of the three and choose some other wildcard,it gets worse.

No, Grant McCann wasn’t one of the 3, I’m sure you can guess who 2 of them are, the third is in the betting.

No, it is, he was the third man, the one I was given didn’t have him on the list, believe me McCann is an improvement on that name. Im as underwhelmed as most, he will get my support as all managers do but I doubt my patience will last as long as it did with the last 2.

Okay well I’m quite happy with McCann if it is him and DVR isn’t just having me on?

Would have preferred McCall but McCann had a side in Peterborough who surely have a similar budget to ourselves in the play-offs.

I’m quite excited.

But McCann isn't an improvement on McCall,he is just in the same mould as Dickov done nothing will work within any budget just to get a job,the board only thinks finance,Gavin Baldwin (a rugby man)and Terry Bramhall haven't got a clue about football.

Oh he’s an improvement on Dickov, hadn’t he just been sacked by Oldham ffs?

McCann was sacked by Peterborough when they were in the play-offs

The last lot is a load of shite and if you want to know why McCall hasn’t got the job ask him, he fucked up.

Why? You seem to know why McCann got the job so why not why McCall didn’t? The clue is there though he fucked is interview up, probably thought it was the Chelsea job.

Why must I? I’m hardly a know it all just because I’m told more than you which proved today isn’t always accurate. How do you do badly in an interview? Underprepared, no idea about the squad, no idea on targets and no vision, seems a reasonable assumption of fucked up to me.

Must admit McCann isn’t getting me that excited. I do wonder if we ended up with a final 3 of McCann, McCall and caudwell, how bad were the other 150 odd candidates. When you read what the local press wrote about him after he got sacked, he sounds like fergy mark 2.

Maybe Rovers' Board couldn't decide between McCall and McCann, and have therefore split the difference and gone for McCamm... :)

You are right not to be excited. McCann was sacked as we were drifting around mid table with a team assembled for a bag load of our ever generous Chairman's money that he wasted on some absolute shite, most of whom are now being shipped out.

It was not just the league position, but the standard of the football that was irking most fans, with his daft insistence on a diamond formation that plainly was not working. You lot will love it !

Lovely fella, absolute legend as a player (which was why the Posh the fans gave him so much longer than similarly shit managers before trying to get rid)...as a manager though, no idea.

We were not in the play-offs? We had won once in 9 games or something similar.

Six points outside with 2 games in hand and a 40% win ratio, a definite improvement on Dickov.
I like most Donny fans are underwhelmed by his appointment however no one sets out to fail so he will get my backing. All he needs to do is improve the style of play, bring some excitement although it sounds unlikely.

At least if he gets some bad results to start with he can always say he hasn't had a full pre season like they do.also would like ti know whose decision it was for strachen to leave, when we were all told he would be staying, dont expect this to come out.but strachen was staying right up until the time McCann was appointed.
