Magic Magilton and Merlin magician according to his YouTube montage!

Best manager since Royal and what a night as his 3rd went in against Bolton.
Wish we had some players with the same passion as super super Jim super super Jim super Jim Magilton ............ Happy days

Ok. Here we go.... Jim would probably have preferred another manager (himself?!) but is backing Mickey

I know little but would also have preferred another manager on a 3 year re-build (Holloway) but would certainly back Mickey too

He will achieve his million bonus and more

I wait to see where we go after that but. ..... Mickey is our man and I'll be glad to support him all the way


Good luck to Jim too! !

Seems to be the best choice, considering the mire we're in. Will get some proper attitude back into the players (and get rid of the ones that 'don't care'). Will be well dissapointed if Matty doesn't get a prominent role, as they should be looking for him to take over as manager in 3.1/2 years time (all being well)

Magilton Backing McCarthy so am I but not for three and half years contract far to long where is the incentive for him, yes extend if he is doing well it seems we given in to his demands, not happy about this.

Oh Mickey you blow my mind , you blow my mind hey Mickey .......

Its nice to see Jim magilton wishing our new manager well.
Will it be Roy Keane wishing him well next i doubt it.
I dont know if Jim is working at the moment if not i would love to see him in a coaching role at the club i thought he done good job when he was manager he got us in the playoffs something both keane or jewell never done .

Shows what a decent bloke Jim is. Loves the club. Let the good times return.

BIG,BIG mistake to sack Jim.

Mr jingles... Why would they be looking to a replacement in 3 1/2 years time? If he's successful at moving us up the league and forwards, then they'd be looking to a long stay with renewed contracts at the end of the initial one, rather than replacing him I would've thought.

Look at the longer contract anohter way ... if we are giving the manager a longer contract and using LOYALTY and SECURITY as a motivator ... maybe Luke Hyam and others will get longer deals from now on too and we will lose fewer players for nothing at the end of a contract?

Just an alternative to the "where is the motivation in a 3 1/2 year deal"

i cannot see big Mick sitting in the dugout just to take a pay cheque mind - but then I never thought any of our past managers have done that either to be fair.

Now for the players to prove to Mickey and to us that they also are in it for the win it!

Top Man

Super Jim

Hang your head in shame the so called fans who treated Super Jim Magilton so badly in his last few weeks as manager. All the very best Jim, i will always remember the your skillfull midfield play.

Town legend! Hopefully Mick can gain that status aswell!

Mick could do no worse than bringing Jim on board the coaching team...mind you,there'd probably be a few heated exchanges.

Good luck Mick,we need you

shame jim left under a cloud, as i feel his service on the pitch will never be forgotten!loved the fact that he always wanted the ball never hid on the pitch! type of player we need now.i loved his passion. town legend and i hope one day he becomes a manager again in england.
