It obviously has no place in football,judging by past experiences of everyone involved in the game.But i suppose this is to be expected seeing as players need as much cash as possible before they're 35.

Rotherham stuck by Ronnie Moore for two seasons when they got promoted to division one even though they barely escaped relegation.

They could have easily sacked him because like us they spent months at the bottom of the table,only getting off the bottom in the last few games.

He has now got them firmly established as a division one side.

How were they repaid though Yorkie? By Moore thinking he had the Ipswich job in the bag, only to find out he was being hoaxed. I certainly join you in applauding the RU board for sticking with him (Crewe's aswell, with Gradi, and Charlton's with Curbishley after getting relegated from the Prem, first time up) but the only loyalty you can guarantee will endure in football is from us, the fans.
