Joe, could there have been a better man under the cir***stances!
A local.
Vastly experienced beyond any manager we have ever had.
A fighter.
And he has not been out of the game at all.
I believe it was design that saw red fern lose his job. His poor run coincided with warnocks appearance with QPR 2 weeks ago. On top of this he was booked for a dinner speech next month. Obviously there were exchanges and Tony moved quickly by sacking redfern and completing the deal with warnock.
