Would Jim Magilton be the most umpopular appointment....

[Funky]

In recent years?

[Easy]

yes mate shocking appointment

[FurtiveFox]

Magic could be just what we are looking for. Keep the faith.

[ScottJones]

Yes, after firing 2 managers last season and the fans paying higher prices than TOP TEN premiership teams.

We are entitled to better.

We expect better.

Hence, we are voting with our feet and en-masse not renewing season tickets.

Also a good way to save money in these troubled times. Have you ever thought of selling stories to the media for extra cash Scott? A lot seems to be appearing in the Daily Mail of late and I'm sure they must be rewarding somebody. Wasn't someone accused of that a little while ago?

Tis tempting, nice little added income in these troubled times. Albeit, as a QPR fan who cares about his club, my conscience won't let me benefit from such an act - i'll do it for free

Said before,

If our expectations had not risen by the fact we had been asked to pay more, I would not have a problem. He is probably a good man, a good manager and at a mediocre club in the championship, he would probably do okay. A bit like Ollie at Blackpool.

The only reason we expect more, is that we've had to pay for it.

Agree Scott. Who would want to profit from causing problems for their chosen club? Personally I just coudn't do it.

nail and head pete

[NewCrossHoop]

I don't remember too many being that impressed with Dowie at the start of last season.

I'd like to know who is lining up the candidates

[sirpiechucker]

My take of this situation for what its worth is either we have a) been led to believe that we are going to appoint a poor candidate and actually we have a trump card up our sleeve or b) we have created a situation where we are left with poor candidates due to our past exploits meaning that Briatore if left with no other option but it does mean that he can't and won't be quick to fire him if things go wrong. He will know now that if he can't appoint who he wants and is always left with rejects there is no point replacing reject with reject. You may as well prove to the world that you don't hire and fire quickly and that you can trust a manager.

We would all prefer option A but if things went sour we could find ourselves looking for another manager because by having option A available to us Briatore knows he can still appoint who he wants. Option B although not favoured by all means that we will have appointed a manager who will show the clearest indication to Briatore that has messed things up by sacking (terminating) managers and it can't go on forever. Option B might mean we appoint a guy who will finally be given a full season and the players finally get some stability.

[leewads]

yes they wont be getting my £600 for that kind of appointment

[pauly]

All i know is i prefer magilton to sousa,he might of won champions league but he knew nowt about championship.Magilton knows the league and he will have better players to work with and he plays quality football

[Cogster]

you forgot to put the word mid-table in between 'quality' and 'football'

[pauly]

Nowt is guarenteed know one thought irvine and preston would make the playoffs and id be happy with that next season and i feel he could achieve that if new strikers are bought!! that would annoy me more if that didnt happen
