I wish I'd thought of that. All you need is balls, rather than the permission of the person you are trying to sign.

I need a whole new stance in the transfer market on Championship Manager

Stop being so negative all the time. Please see the contents of my sig.

If you don't reply, I will assume you agree that you have been a bit silly and that you admit you were wrong.

At the end of the day wasnt it obvious what would happen employing James Lowes with very little coaching expertise. You would have been better keeping hold of Cullen a least he was Wire through and through. James Lowes had a small amount of experience on the backroom at Salford then came in under the radar at HJ.

From interview with Tony Smith:

Tony Smith wrote:

This is a big club with a big future. I had been approached before the appointment of Jimmy Lowes but the timing wasn't right and I had to say no.
"But after talking it through with my current employers I felt the time is now right

So the "board" actually approached Smith before Lowes eg whilst Cullen was in-situ and he "had" to say no ie it wasn't his choice ie he wanted to come then ie the "board" has known for the best part of a year that Smith was coming.

Can people now accept that running a club in real life is not quite as easy as doing so from your bedroom in your parents house (Latchford Wolvesfan take note, this is aimed at you)
