Seriously, what the hell do some Chairmen want...any club can become a giant kill victim...


 


They seemed to have started to get some consistency in play if not results in the league and showed at least some signs of being able to survive.... so the manager spoke his mind ... if it was diabolical then why not say so...

I think this is a case of the chairman having a hissy fit & throwing his toys out of the pram due to losing to a local opponent, especially one a couple of league below

of course the LMA will be outraged... but in this instance I think they may be justified, hell since October... he might only just be getting his message across... and he certainly wont have had anytime to make and real changes to the playing staff.

Ouch bottom of the league, I didn't realize that but I do feel action is warranted based on that. The cup shouldn't come as a surprise but the league position is (at least for me).

They should be much higher in my opinion.

I must admit I feared for him after last nights result but Hartlepool played some good stuff and were unlucky on the night.

bottom of the league out of the cup, i think its written on the wall that he would be under pressure.

right time for a new manager to have a go, what with the transfer window coming up. does not seem harsh to me, hes done quite poor looking at their results.

Him at West Ham, shows what can happen if you actually keep the manager...

Absolutely, Pardew at Newcastle is another example, fans were baying for his blood not long ago now look where they are.

Adkins was always on the cards after they lost 6-1 at the weekend to Birmingham.

It wouldn't surprise me I think his position is very precarious (that's a big word for this time in the morning):biggrin:

I think Rodger Red hat will make it through Christmas.

I think the next to go will be from our league I shall not name names, someone towards the put though.

So, Steve Clarke in to replace Adkins at Reading.

Hyppia had to go really. Brighton have struggled with his system of play and he wasn't changing it. Their build up was slow and teams knew what to expect. They weren't scoring enough goals. With the right manager, they will make their way up the table. Darren Bent is a great signing for them.

As long as SD isn't one of them!

If the time came do you think both would go or do you see Greg as our manager too?

If he continues to overachieve with us and lands a job in a higher division, I'd expect him to take Greg Abbot with him. But hopefully we'll keep the team together for a while yet.

I can't see Derry going to just any side, certainly not Brighton but I guess they would welcome him and greg (Mr and Mrs). :lol:

In all seriousness I think it will be obvious when SD will want to leave.

I sort of have a feeling he will reject a couple of offers then move to somewhere that he had rejected before, it could very well be QPR. That said I hope for at least 2-3 seasons of him being fully in charge because he is changing things.

SD isn't even on the bookies radar, PHEW

Neil Warnock sacked by Palace. 1 win in 12 I think it is. Timing makes sense. New man in and some money to spend in January.

Me too @super_ram, it must be a really stressful business being a football manager, it's bad enough being a fan sometimes. I'm surprised more managers don't have heart trouble.
