I never know what to expect. They do have money from parachute payments as do QPR.

Burnley still have parachute payments. The Burnley fan on here on Saturday said their budget was over £15 million whereas ours is £14 million for all staff.

I've said several times that the posting style is very similar. He was wrong about Barnes too. To go back to the 'moaning about budget', fans were expecting a lot of the squad so Gus & Tanno tried to squash those expectations by pointing out that we had the 14th best budget in the Championship...

McGhee did have a great record with us, but a lot of posters on Nsc denigrated him, even to the point of trying to call him a racist. Coppell did get us out of the relegation zone when we beat Reading away but we slipped back into it. Obviously he had a mountain to climb when he came in.

We were but slipped down inbetween the the following matches. The fact that two or three managers can actually be named shows how infrequent that achievement is attained. There is still the record 95 points, 8 wins in March 2011, and record number of weeks at the top of the division. Of course...

Can you name me one manager who got a team from a relegation zone in November to promotion the following season? I've just checked the table for 5th Nov 2009 & we were in 21st place. He moved us up 40 places in the Football League.

You are forgetting he didn't just get us promoted but he started in the relegation zone. McGhee took over when we were still in a playoff position. Poyet took us up within 18 months, then got us into 4th which was our highest position for 30 years.

Thank you for your apology.

No, not one.

I'm happy with a manager who leaves us in a better state than when he started. I can't understand anyone who bears grudges. Life is too short.

Just the same as most managers really. Average life span of any football manager is 18 months.
