If we don't win at least 3 trophies this year - MCDONNELL OUT!

**micls** · 14/03/2007, 2:55 PM

What do ye think it would take for McDonnell to be sacked?? Finishing outside top 4 or is he safe even then

**Dodge** · 14/03/2007, 3:05 PM

Not sure. I think he should've been sacked the last couple of years

Nice day for fishing eh

Look at the fans of the last surviving franchise having a go at us?!

Anyway the Francis thing never happened

Apologies if I've jumped the gun, just that I assumed you were paying more wages this season with the players you've brought in. Also, any Pats fan I know doesn't see J Mc been there after this season so I just put 2 and 2 together. I also know that most other fans at other clubs would expect to win something with the squad you have

No we're very short upfront. We've been saying for a while we're strong at the back and the midfield is class but we haven't enough of a squad to challenge strongly for a title. We're getting there though

lovely piece of after timing there
I didn't notice many fans of other clubs tipping us to win anything in the two pre seasons thread on this board
nor did I see the prices on pats winning anything slashed dramatically to favourites in any market

these fans of other clubs are a funny lot
