If you stop and think about the absolute cluster F%#@ that has been created by Mr.'s Doughty and Arthur since the day they sacked Billy it is absolutely staggering.
Perhaps the most staggering part is that almost every day there is something new.
First it is the lack of signings. Then we get some mediocre signings and then Verhoek freaks out. The transfer window closes. McClaren freaks out and almost resigns. Then he's committed for life. Oh and have I mentioned the losses.
Now we find out that we could be getting rid of the old Wally if only the geniuses running the club hadn't screwed themselves with a 2M payout.

You're right about everything apart from the last bit. The 2m payout would just to pay up his contract like any club has to do if they sack the manager

He said he would walk away in another paper if the board wanted him to go. Yeah no wonder as he would be getting a £2 million pay off.
I just can't see him being able to stay manager if we loose today as everyone will well and truly be against him, the players confidence will be shot, plus seeing how Doncaster are doing well since there new manager plus the international break coming up this would be the time to get a new manager in as he will at least have some time with the players.
Hope it's Billy (won't be though) as I would be more upset if ended up with O'Driscoll then I am with McClaren, I think Doughty will have to get a fans favorite in otherwise he will start to have rebellion against him!

Still 2M is a bit high for a manager that was looking to revive his career.
