Don't see that being a good move, still I suppose the money will be a comfort...   |

He was going to be sacked by Brum, so at least this way he's got a job!

Still can’t see the Latics staying up, they had their salad days under Jewell IMO
Could be wrong though!

Not necessarily, Bradford didn’t have a rich backer. But the ‘rugby town’ comparison holds up

Just think the board are getting rid of someone who is doing a pretty good job IMO they had no choice though as they couldnt offer him a new deal because of the proposed takeover?? Their hands were tied!! £3 million compensation for a bloke who would have probably left/been sacked by a new owner is good business really! |
