Consistently had to sell players and only had about £2m to spend. I think mid table in the championship is going pretty well for a club like Preston. Didn’t set the world alight but far from an easy job. Finished above Johnson a few times who had about £40m to spend in the same period.

Sounds promising -will be a tough gig here currently-he needs to be strong across the whole club
Be interesting as we have 3 home under 23 games on Mondays coming up to see if KLD and Speakman turn up and what is said ( if anything)KLD is normally there
If Neil gets wins at first team level then fans will be on board -the same as anyone

Ah silly me being a season out.

So from 7th how much did he improve them and where did they finish in their following seasons?

Higher or lower?

How much did he improve them from his first season there?

Genuinely impressed with that moving of the goalposts there mind.

Everyone was excited for Keane to come back, myself included. He did extremely well in his first season to get us promoted, then did well 2nd season to keep us up. Despite heavy investment things went wrong 3rd season and he walked out. He was then a failure at Ipswich.

Taking the names out of it and looking at their CV’s as managers objectively I reckon very few would pick Keane.
 
I think we all know it's McCann already don't we? The tenuous story on FLW about him being offered the job sounds likely to me, the club will know the mood is turning mutinous now. It won't bother them that much but they will be aware they have to appoint someone now, even if that someone is bit of a fat headed nobody that only they want anywhere near the job.

The Keane appointment was never based on logic. Whilst we all got caught up in the excitement once it was looking likely there was plenty who weren't that bothered when it was first mooted.
