I suspect the club were going to pull the trigger a few weeks ago and would have also had to sack the assistant and pay out compenstation... then Celtic came in for him so they held fire and held them to ransom to let him leave....... he clearly learn't from the Steve Clarke talks with Fulham

Lower West
RoyallyFcuked So based on your logic, people like Aitor Karanka at management?


Was assistant manager at Real Madrid. Which suggests above average pedigree. Whether he cuts it in the premiership only time will tell.


So? No reason why we can't get someone with no track record but above average pedigree.

I don't have a problem with the decision itself as much as the need to make a decision at all.

Just think, a few short years ago we were thought of as a stable, well-run club...

MmmMonsterMunch The cynic in me thinks this is to get season tickets renewals up.
It will have the opposite effect if they don't announce a new manager soon.

LWJ Yet to renew and now considering it because I don't agree with how we are being run. It has nothing to do with Brian. It could have been anyone who we had employed in DECEMBER (6 (SIX) months ago)


Agree

It doesn't matter if you supported BM or not, or whether you wanted him to stay, or not. He's been treated abysmally.

I say it again: end of 2015/16, 9 points from 13 matches.

2004/05, 10 points from 13 matches.

Lets be honest BM wasn't putting bums on seats. They need bums on seats.

I can kind of see why they've done it but just flabbergasted as to why they appointed him at all. I feel desperately sorry for him as he doesn't deserve this treatment. Lets hope he can get his job back at Arsenal.

None of it matters to me as I'd already decided I wasn't renewing anyway. Watching us at home has been a chore for quite some time.

Tempted to say, that we are just like all of the other clubs......

But we're not....we've become worse.

The last thing we needed was to sack another manager at this stage.....regardless of who it is

How many more?

We are now officially an absolute joke.......another Charlton if you will.

So apparently Brian went to the owners with 5 or 6 signings he wanted over the summer, and they basically told him to do one.

Me too. Think relegation is very likely and so should be a good bet. Might as well make some money out of this shambles.

Absolutely ridiculous decision. To not give him a summer is inexcusable.
