geordie_b Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 "It has become clear over recent weeks that I found I could not become passionate about the role and give the commitment the position demands." - Coppell 99% of the country could probably say that about their jobs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca888 Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Maybe Dennis Wise is secretly their Director of Football and Coppell didnt kn ow this until today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 So he's been manager the entire close season, picking up his pay cheque, then as soon as the season starts "Actually, you know what... Nah..." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chubby Jason Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I haven't liked him since before he quit Reading and was babbling on about how he doesn't even like his job and all that shite, I'd imagine he will have to retire now because no one would be insane enough to employ him after this nonsense.

Exiled in Texas Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 "It has become clear over recent weeks that I found I could not become passionate about the role and give the commitment the position demands." - Coppell Could easily just be a reflection on Bristol City. Might be a lot easier to be passionate about working in premier league with Villa than working at Ashton Gate in Championship Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I reckon there is more going on then what is being said. It could be health problems of his or families, or it could be that Bristol were calling the shits the he should of done etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGuv Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Absolute madness. He's obviously hiding something. Can I reverse my prediction of Bristol City getting promoted now? No Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawK Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 just reading on bbc site about this, quite funny that the next story down is : Coppell was key to move says James Surprised it's taken this many posts before he was mentioned. Maybe Coppell was thinking Big Dave was joking about the Black Mamba being part of the deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Actually, The Sun reckons David James is the reason he quit: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3093639/Steve-Coppell-quit-Bristol-City-over-the-signing-of-David-James.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
