Why we didnt beat Wolves last saturday, i don't know!

3 million unemployed and rising..........and Andy Townsend still has a job.

incredible.

But Gary Megson hasn't - what's that all about then?

not a great reward for beating your rivals and being 3rd...........

...and I reckon he'd have got promotion via playoffs as a minimum - any successor with an unsettled team risks even the playoffs, absolutely mad! I gather Jones is in the frame, what's your Saintly wisdom there?

well I have heard it called some things !!
FWIW, I think jones is a better manager than Megson.Bucketloads of experience, and gets good results from so-so players. (no offence intended).Should know the available loanees well enough, if you need to strengthen.
if you go for him, they just HAVE to be patient, and he will get you up. I suspect if he does, he would get you moving well in the Championship too.
Saints fans liked him. We were slipping when he was eased out, but the PL on thin resources is a tough place.
Would be happy if I was an Owls fan.

Not one of MM's strongest suits! Jones got Wolves to PL, but was the nearly man with Cardiff. An interesting addendum Megson succeded Jones at Stockport, taking them to their highest ever position in the league!

I know. Megson isn't a bad manager, reckon he would have got you up this season or next. As for your chairman......you will forgive me for bad thoughts !! you know why !!

Similar to my dislike of SU. On the Owls management subject, noticeable that Evans, asst manager did not either fall or walk. He has a Wolves connection with Jones, who will need the local team knowledge to hit the ground moving!

Chelsea defender David Luiz has admitted that he is aware of growing interest in his services from Spanish giants Barcelona.

..... if only ..... if only .......

Gary Megson has been treated harshly but Dave Jones will do a good job.
Obviously I have a lot of time for both.

The last time we had back to back wins was Feb 09.Happy days.

I walked past the bookies this morning, and it said. Bet £10 on Arsenal defeating Liverpool and you'll win £90. Blimey, what an opportunity missed!

Wasn't it just!! i hope we beat Sunderland tomorrow!!
