Having got them back into the Championship the hard way after two years as Gaffa - its baffling they have parted ways. Some caller on Talkspit says their Chairman Dejphon Chansiri is a "dictator". Seems a strange move. Who knows?

Sheffield Wednesday stalwart Liam Palmer has delivered a fascinating insight into Darren Moore's man-management skills.
The 49-year-old led the Owls to promotion to the Championship after beating Barnsley at Wembley on Monday.
Victory ended a two-year stay in League One and has the whole club believing they are, as the song goes, on their way back.
Palmer has been at Hillsborough most of his life and revealed post-match that he's triggered a contract extension to a deal that was due to expire this summer.
He has enjoyed an outstanding campaign, scooping all manner of honours and awards. But he says the real brains behind the club's rise is manager Moore.
Moore was hailed for a man-management masterclass in the dramatic comeback against Peterborough in the semi-finals. Trailing 4-0 after a horror first leg, Wednesday somehow mounted the comeback of all comebacks.
Speaking to the EFL, Palmer has revealed an insight into the quirky way Moore got his players to believe ahead of that miracle night at S6.
"On our club badge reads the Latin words 'Consilio Et Animis'. That means 'by widsom and courage' and that's what this club is all about," said the Owls' player of the year.
"That's what the manager has brought back to this club and that's what us as players believe. He's made us believe. Before the game (Peterborough, second leg), he pulled out 20 sticks, took one and snapped it in front of us.
"He said 'on your own, you're no good'. He then got the remaining 19 sticks and tried to break them all together, but couldn't.
"He told us that as one, we couldn't be broken and that we could do this. I thought that was amazing."

Moore recently guided Wednesday to promotion in 2022/23 in dramatic fashion after they beat Barnsley 1-0 at Wembley in the play-off final, but now the hunt begins for his replacement as Chansiri says that he’ll ‘always be welcome at Hillsborough.
A shock statement from the club this afternoon read, “Sheffield Wednesday can announce that manager Darren Moore has left the club by mutual consent. Moore joined the Owls in March 2021 and departs with Wednesday having won promotion to the Championship this May via the play-offs following two seasons in League One. Moore’s backroom staff also depart S6.”
The Owls chairman, who will host what will now be a very interesting fans forum tomorrow afternoon, said, “Both parties believe that now is the right time we go our separate ways... The journey of Sheffield Wednesday with Darren has been in many ways unique and always as a team. In the football industry, journeys come to an end and now is that time, which we both agree.
“The mutual respect we have for each other is immense on a personal and professional basis and I offer my sincere thanks for the dedication and commitment Darren has given to our club. Darren will always be welcome at Hillsborough.”
Moore leaves the Owls after 129 games in charge, winning 66 of them and losing just 31 - it now remains to be seen where he’ll end up in the next chapter of his career.
