Shocked by that.

I had them nailed on to go down and they stayed up comfortably.

Maybe he was meant to be in a meeting but feigned illness so he could play golf?

 

[Marvanelli]

That is an extremely harsh decision.

But because it's GON I have no sympathy for him.

Rumours are, they tried sacking him last few days, but he had his phone off so he could watch the US Open

Only makes sense if they have someone like Potter lined up and can't see that

 

[Colgates_shaving_foam]

I'm going out on a limb and saying this is due to something off field.

 

[Centralscrutinizer]

Strange really. No doubt they'll think they can do better with someone else who'll be gone by the end of season

Exactly my thoughts.

Statement says they will be announcing a new head coach imminently, so maybe they have an opportunity to bring someone in and its too good an opportunity to miss.

Strange timing too; if it was just about performance, it would have been done in the week after their last match, not almost a month after.

 

[Steer]

Kept them up at the expense of "bigger" teams - with a reasonable 39 points. Seems like a strange decision from the outside. Perhaps there is more than meets the eye.

 

[Marvanelli]

If it's for someone like Potter, then I totally get it.

 

[Diego]

Not a massive of fan of him as a person but it’s an absolutely abysmal decision. The worst I’ve seen for a long time.

He will walk into another job.

Isn't that why we sacked Warnock earlier than intended?
So we wouldn't lose Wilder to someone else?
I wonder if.....

True

I hope the reports regarding a Premier League manager being questioned by police in the last 24 hours aren't linked here.
