One more thought on the subject. Supposedly Cellino and McD are meeting this week on the subject of the retained list. And supposedly McD is going to be telling Cellino there has to be massive change. Now, just for a moment, let’s NOT get into the question of whether he’s right. The REAL

Yeah, no doubt as to most of it. At the end of the day Diouf’s lack of fitness is down to the player. Management can ride him but can’t put the pies down for him. As for BMD, I think its clear that Cellino wants him out. I want him out. But can the club afford to push him out? Michael A.

It may not be a popular point of view round these parts…but, frankly, I think this is appropriate. Sure we’d prefer to see the McCormack money put on the pitch rather than into buying it back when we don’t think it ever should have been hocked (pun intended) in the first place. But there’s a
