You've got to take your hat off to CC haven't you?
Faced with VERY little in the way of funds - indeed, having to balance the books by selling the big earners - he has this summer brought in so many unknowns (to me anyway) and somehow, here we are - top of the table!
I'm sure we realise that it's early days - we probably won't be able to sustain this form, but when you remember that, not many weeks ago, loads of us were expecting a relegation battle, it's a sensational turnaround!
CC has got to be seen as our most prized asset atm; the problem is obviously keeping him here when the Premiership Manager Merry-go-round starts in a week or two
Hopefully our new owner has given him enough assurances to convince him that he belongs

Worryingly, I've just read that there's a £2m release clause in CC's contract.
Hoping that the article is a load of rubbish:

£2m??! That's peanuts!

Strangely after the Leeds game I had to travel up to Chesterfield and was chatting to some older Leeds fans on the train they were saying that their current manager would be gone inside 3 months and people they knew inside the club were saying CC was easily the number one replacement choice as it was felt he should never have been let go in the first place and given the job at the time. The also said while everyone would have him in a heartbeat, they were not so sure he would even want to go back.
