Stockport are iirc 4 losing play offs in 6 years.

Fair play, leaving when you’re basically on top.

First rule of hobnob, I can remember 19 and bored shitless but I can’t remember the last few years.

How exactly can franchise “just chuck money at it” they will be required to work within the same FL restrictions as all other member clubs and don’t exactly have much more resource than Reading or many other sides in L1.

Well Birmingham spent 40 million and nobody batted an eyelid.

MK are hardly a Birmingham and if Birmingham had failed, and were still at this level, no doubt they’d currently be suffering rather badly under various FL penalties. But if MK want the risky gamble then good luck to them.

Can now guarnatee they'll plummet back to mid-table at best - why do clubs do this?!

Yes, I wish we had him and wouldn't be surprised if he got the Blackburn job.

Maybe best for him and for the club-I remember hearing a manager say once that there does come a time where, if you keep most of the same players, the motivation fades hearing the same message every day so either players need to be changed or the manager.

Yeah, the one line in that Southgate drama that really resonated with me was along the lines of “it’s our fourth tournament, do we really need to reinvent the wheel?”

Basics of management tho’ innit: Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning

I can only believe that he has left of his own accord to take a bigger job, rather than being mutually terminated. Perhaps Richardson can be in the running to take over. It is in his area of operation geographically. They did get counter attacked in the final and as he proudly states, “We lead the league in the fewest counter attacks conceded”.
