Let's not forget its the hottest day on record in pre season. We can't expect a  Barcelona peffomance.

I think I'd prefer a whole winger rather than  half of one ??

Isn't Cybulski still on the books?

I think his heart was in the job for a time and the emotion that went with it. But deep down in his heart lies Everton / utd and we aren't able to compete with that. The dcfc managers job was a means to an end. I've no idea where Rooney will end up. Part of me secretly hopes the new owner will be installed and they will have a deep and meaningful conversation and shared ambition and will agree to stay. 

I would also add / suggest that we don't look to managers who deep down loyalties that lie elsewhere. Rooney with Everton and man utd and lampard with Chelsea. I don't think their hearts were really ever in it and dcfc manager spot was a means to an end. 
Its heartbreaking as a dcfc fan when you see a modicum of success and you think that the manager can build on it to then leave. 

I suspect a significant part of the mess we are in is due to the number of managers we have had recently. We have had 12 managers in 10 years. Granted some were sacked, but the more 'successful' managers have moved on. I'm not a Mel hater or blamer. But think about it. Everytime a new manager comes in, the manager wants his own set up, staff and players. Each time the club has to back the manager and that costs money. When the managers of recent years have been successful, they have left - McLaren, Rowett, Lampard and now Rooney.
So the question is, how do we get the successful managers to stick with the club and drive it forward? 
Edit - Further to this, please keep the thread on topic and not turn it into a Mel bashing thread!

I suspect you are right. I just find it a bit off. He's stuck through thick and thin with us, had the opportunity to go to Everton and another championship club and the day we get some good news he's jacked it in. 
I think what you have said has played on his mind and I suspect Colleen has been in his ear quite a bit on holiday and made his decision. He's probably had a discussion with rosenior to say he's leaving and it's highly likely he'll get the job at Derby and that's why he didn't go to Blackpool.

And this is why I'm not getting my hopes up just yet. Just when you think things can't get any worse. 
I'm really starting to fall out of love with football. I really hopw this is the lowest pount and we can start to rise again.

There was a meme posted in a thread just after Joinergate. It was of Tom driving with Keogh as a passenger. It was rough and thrown together quickly, but it had me in bits. Does anyone know the whereabouts of it?

So most people think he's a see you next Tuesday, want an angry mob with torches and pitchforks to burn him at the stake, toast marshmallows off his blazing testes and then ask a favour of him. Really?
