From the new manager thread:
"I think it'll be Mick McCarthy, not my choice but just have a feeling "
Would be surprised if Danish Dave were to sack Atkins, as he wouldn’t want to pay out the compo! Think the axe man only went for Atkins because he was out of work, and there was no compo to pay there, either!
I’ve said it before, Danish Dave is in a win - win situation. His dream of owing a football club has become a reality, and through that he’s become, via social media, a celebrity of sorts, which has allowed him to indulge in another of his passions, that of becoming a rock star (I’m trying to keep a straight face as I type those words).
It’s also allowed him to write, publish and use at the Valium his new song, Addicks to Victory (I’m laughing now), in place of their long standing song, ‘Red Red Robin‘ (which has alienated the fan base), but the one thing he hasn’t done, and the Spotters are up in arms about, is invest a decent amount of money into improving the team!
He’s not going to do that, because he doesn’t have the money to spend big. That’s why he only owns the team and not the Valium or the Sparrow Lane training ground, which would have cost him an additional £50M! If the club get relegated this season, and the supporters turn on him (which they will), he will just sell the club to another chancer, for the same amount he paid for it, and just write off the £10M + he’s already spent, as a tax loss. In the long run, he’ll see that owning a football club for a couple of years will have raised his social media profile, and in turn, done the same thing for his company!
Basically, the Spotters are fucked, whatever Dave does! I can’t see McCarthy, or any half decent manager wanting to take over Adkins job, when he won’t know for definite how much money he’ll be given to spend on players, or know if they’ll still be a league 1 club, come the end of this season!
And we think our club has problems!
