The footie season proper starts in a couple of days, banter time!!! If we have to buy players off Wigan then we really are in bloody trouble!

Roeders managment record is very poor, he had a few good results at the end of last season but that usually happens when a manager is sacked then replaced.

To be fair he has a good record of getting teams into seventh place.
(then getting them relegated the next year.)
He certainly wasn't near the top of my manager wish list. He's a nice guy but far too cautious. I think he's probably just a low maintenance guy who'll tow Shepherd's PR line and keep the manager's seat warm until Shearer decides to take over.
Shepherd always backs his manager with cash but is a PR disaster, seems to be far too hands on re: transfers and always cocks up big time when it comes to the hiring and firing of managers. Probably the most important job a chairman has to do. He always seems to be looking for a quick fix manager to sort an immediate problem out, rather than getting a guy in with a long term plan and letting him get on with it.
By the way, did that Chimbonda guy manage to find a 'big club' that actually wanted him?
