Oh dear.[/quote]At the end of the day he won''t rock the boat, they never do![/quote]We can only all hope that you are proven wrong on this Wiz in the nicest possible way.DM already has several clubs on his CV where he has proven to be effective so he can afford to be a bit more ''forceful'' in his position as if the time came for him to leave prematurely he would gain employment elsewhere quite easily due to his track record. Doomy on the other hand really only has Norwich on his CV when applying for CEO jobs, a club which suffered a remarkable downturn in fortune whilst he held the position. Doomy did his learning on the job so only learned the ''Norwich way'' , Mr McNally on the other hand has been at bigger clubs and it might be fair to guess that working for Al Fayed is more like working in the kitchen for Gordon Ramsay than Delia Smith, I certainly don''t think he''ll be intimidated by her and he will not have to worry about building a CV like Doomy did either.Fingers crossed but it looks like we''ve finally got a CE who is strong enough to take charge of the club.
