I would be very happy with that appointment.

Is that who your sauce had told you it would be Reg?



 Yep...it's who they have offered it to....still some stuff to sort.

  If I'd have divulged it, and Arriba had wacked all his wordly posssessions on, then we couldn't settle compensation....how do you think I'd feel, knowing that a feral, wild eyed, desperado was hunting me?  I do feel a bit sorry for TCP and Swindon Chap.

 I can hear the rasp of cold steel on whetstone as we speak...FWIW I think Money is a decent appointment, he's learned his trade in a variety of different clubs, and has a record of being decent with bringing through youth players.

 Recent success at Walsall is encouraging.  I've read he likes to build from the back...my only misgiving would be if we become overly negative.

The compensation will no doubt involve letting go some of the Tozer add in's i reckon!

seems the walsall fans think his style of football is boring over defensive hoofball. made useless signings and bizarre tactics. Still if he gets us up the table i'm happy

Would have preferred the Fridge but it's a reasonable appointment.

It's a realistic choice, and I'd be happy with it on the grounds that Walsall were promoted and seemed to progress whilst he was in charge. At least from a results point of view.

Given the choice out of Ward, Fridge, Ling, Speed, Tisdale and Money I'd go for Money.  

If the calibre and profile of Ollie, Dowie, Pearce, etc, etc were really a realistic option it would be more of a disappointment.
 
The issue for me was the 'blow you away' soundbites from the boardroom  - it just lead us to think that we had a chance of getting someone better that we can realistically attract and afford. And yes I did get suckered in.
