Megson was wanted by McCabe!

Just so happens David Weir was on holiday in Sheffield, and staying at the Copthorne of all places. Imagine that luck. Why would he go on holiday to somewhere hot and sunny, when there is Sheffield to visit. Why would he stay in a hotel central to bars, restaurants, theaters/venues and transport links...when he could stay on beautiful Bramall Lane, with a short walk to a tile depot, and a petrol station.

tbf to the veracity of this  I think it's entirely possible he was suffering a dose of the runs and so where else would you stay but the biggest  Shithouse in Sheffield ?

It’s true Weir had booked a room at the Copthorne. Was one of those booking by the hour things they do though to give people a place to f4ck

Simon McCabe now talking about the appointment of David Weir in 2013. “Scott and I were quite worried about Kevin’s erratic behaviour over that past year. The first visible signs began with Chris Morgan’s promotion to caretaker manager. That summer he was adamant that Gary Megson would be the manager just because it would be easy, and he thought he’d be a popular choice. We had to take evasive action, and by chance found that David was holidaying in Sheffield with Lee Carsley at the time and they were staying in the Copthorne Hotel. Scott gave David one of his spare suits, presented him to Kevin, and within an hour we had a new manager.”

 

Did McSue need his garden doing ?

Plus a short taxi ride to the delights of Pitsmoor and the Manor. A holiday up there with Syria Beirut and Afghanistan. A total culture shock guaranteed. :duntmatter:

The David Weir appointment turned out so well also didn’t it. 

 

McCabe is the luckiest fvvcker around with Wilder being a pig fan and wanting to manage them. McCabe stumbled on that appointment. If Wilder hadn’t have been a Blade, McCabe wouldn’t have gone for him and they would’ve been on their latest rhubarb appointment as manager. 

 

Lucky, lucky fvvckers. 

I suppose if you keep on appointing managers from the large pool of people available you will eventually get lucky.

That goes for any club really. There’s no knowing how well it’s going to turn out when an appointment is made.

tell yourself that but HE was clearly considering taking the job.

 

 

 

Early on in HIS management career. HE never went through with it though. HE needed to be close to home at that time, so that was a consideration for a brief moment.

I must admit that comment certainly had me flicking through the TUI brochure... A fortnight in sunny downtown Sheffield 2?

 

That's a bit like living on the 14th floor and winning the speedboat on "Bullseye!".
