Royal Lady BR knew there wasn't much money, if any, for January - most of us realised that, so he 100% knew. You come into a team and are told they are having to sell off their big money players - and you're given a modest amount to replace them with, but you blow £2 million on a player you hardly play. You big up the team and its prospects to such an extent that you start to believe all the spin yourself and you think you're the second Mourinho. He's come back down to earth with a bump. It's never nice losing your job, esp around Xmas time, but tbh he's brought it all on himself. Whether it's just naievity, I don't know. But I think he might just be a "wee" bit more humble with his next team.

Maguire Doubt Dellor's interview did anything at all - Madejski must have spent hours of his life speaking to Rodgers, so a two min soundbite won't make any difference. Results, talking shit, bit of over-reaction after what happened 10-15 years ago, etc. Many factors I imagine.

Wimb My suspicions are that it was indeed a showdown meeting over money.
Then again he was at the RFC Christmas party the night he was sacked, perhaps he copped off with Cilla :O

OK. He "committed" £2 million on Mills.(.)Boobies(.)Royal Lady BR knew there wasn't much money, if any, for January - most of us realised that, so he 100% knew.

Again, we spent £1.1m on Matthew Mills, not £2m. The rest is based on apperances and promotion to the Premier League.
