wormy Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Some talk among a few mates that Big Mick's got the boot at Ipswich. Can't imagine they've gotten it from a particularly knowledgeable source; whole town's been waiting for it since Lincoln, anyway. The football they play must be utterly soul-destroying but until Evans is willing to spend some money I can't see them doing much better than they've done under McCarthy. Mid-table mediocrity with a flirt at the playoffs every now and then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid-table mediocrity with a flirt at the playoffs every now and then. The same happened at Wolves, he had no money to spend and was scraping results, they sacked him with no real plan and plummeted out of the prem to the old third div.

Guest Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 So what grounds do they have to sack him if they used covers, heaters, etc. and it wasn't enough? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbel1 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 It does seem incredibly harsh to be sacked after 27 years because the covers and heaters failed. However, seeing as it spoiled Phil Browns moment in the spotlight against Bolton, I'm guessing that there are other factors at play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 He criticised their fans at the weekend which seemed like a really bad move. As well as poor football, not great results and fallings out with players and chairman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Not a manager but wasn't sure where else to put it http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38717420 "People generally lose their position as a result of not doing their job," said a club statement. Pretty petty of the club. Relax, you're Southend United, nobody cares if you play or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Saw earlier that Nigel Clough has turned down a move to Nottingham Forest (a club he played over 400 matches for), preferring to stay with Burton Albion. How excruciatingly embarrassing for the former champions of Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Saw earlier that Nigel Clough has turned down a move to Nottingham Forest (a club he played over 400 matches for), preferring to stay with Burton Albion. How excruciatingly embarrassing for the former champions of Europe. Heard their owner interviewed yesterday. Sounded like an idiot...make that a grandiose, entitled, control-freak idiot. Nigel would be mad to take himself (and his surname) back there under that regime. In similar circumstances, suspect his dad wouldn't have gone near the place (or if he had it would have made his Leeds tenure look long by comparison).

Will he get that far? I agree but if they carry on as they are, he'll be under huge pressure. Has their loopy owner stopped tweeting? Not seen anything in a while.
