kurtsimonw Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Never understood sacking a manager at this stage of the season, unless you think the change is necessary for survival. If you bring in a short term guy, like we did with Black, Newcastle with Carver, and its obvious it's short term, players will down tools and there's no benefit at all. If you want to bring a long term guy in, why limit your pool when more people will be attainable in the summer? Would be like us sacking Bruce at this moment, achieves nothing.

HanoiVillan Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I'm gobsmacked and I think that's completely ridiculous. When he took over they were in trouble, sat near the bottom three and he's got them up to 10th and closer to the playoffs than the relegation zone. Now they're going to finish the season having had 3 managers. Waste of time and money, and shoddy treatment of a manager. Small time IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 How many sackings is that for Mclaren now? Has to be averaging one a year at this point. Unfortunately this is the world we live in now, he has done a decent job at this level twice, but ultimately a bad run of form as the wrong time and he has gone...again.

It's the same with Bruce....he took over a club in a lot of mess and struggling to even win a game....goes on a run and gets people dreaming of the play offs and when teams tail off it still feels like underachievement even though it's a vast improvement on the situation 6 months back. They won't finish top 6 now so guess they just feel McLaren lifting them well away from the bottom 3 served his purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Wigan just sacked Warren Joyce. Don't really understand that one, he took over when they were 2nd from bottom. Yes they still are but they're only 5 points off safety and beat SHA last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's arguably playing worse football than Lambert did in the premier league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confident that is what Mantis meant and I'm stunned more can't see home for what he is. I don't think his nationality is relevant? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
