Although it doesn't seem that way most of the time in the modern world, things don't always have to boil down to how much money can be made from them...IMP are a shining example of that (that is to say you do it for reasons other than making a buck, not that you are bunch of paupers). Sadly in football filthy lucre rules 99 times out of 100.

I didn't think Alex would sell us out so quickly

Burley for me (unless someone forced Alex Ferguson to take the job by gunpoint, which would be fine).

I'm sure if someone were to offer us a pile of cash to do what we do, we'd take it!

Is 400,000 a year not enough for a salary?
Money greedy hun is what he is.
I can appreciate if someone wants to go to club football but he could've at least stayed out his contract.

I hope Birmingham get relegated now.

I would like George Burley to get the job, Craig Levein would also be good if he had enough experience that is.

What about Gordon Strachan? Impossible but would love to have him as a Scotland manager.
