Fair enough I can see your point of view, I am not convinced at all though mate. His tactical awareness is bloody shocking.
I do agree he does sometimes make some very strange decisions and I think his inexperience at this level has shown at times but I've seen enough to think he can learn from mistakes and develop into a very competent manager at this level.
You are living in la la land. McCarthy will be looking (and waiting) for much bigger jobs than us. 4k a week is nowt to him, but a lot to us. He will be earning still from the media etc work that he does. He would need to be out of football work a long time before he would consider us and I can't see that happening because somebody with aspirations of getting in the PL (Leicester, West Ham, Hull, Derby etc) will want him. Reminds me of when there were some saying Houllier may come to us. Good grief.
