The sacked manager thread

Forums New posts
Swansea sack Guidolin and appoint Bob Bradley as his replacement.
 
Excellent to see that a Yank can pull a Premiership manager's job in advance of any British options.
 
All 3 Welsh clubs in the EFL have sacked their managers already this season now!

There's a few points that you need to be aware of -

1. It's not soccer, it's football

2. All Americans are yanks, whatever part of the US you live.

3. The hostility to our new owners - these yanks couldn't care less about Swansea, they couldn't even care less about football. They only care about profit. And every penny that the slimeballs pocket is a penny less that could have been spent on strengthening the team. And although they've bought the club they've not invested a penny in the club.

4. The hostility towards Bucket Bob - we've got a manager that would never even have been on any other club's radar. If he wasn't a yank he would never have been considered here either. He may work out, but we don't know that yet. What we do know is that many excellent European managers have been ignored/excluded from any shortlist simply because they weren't american enough.

So as far as I'm concerned, you can stick your old glory up your arse (sorry, ***).

Nice to see that the Welsh have got an accurate grasp on the history of Association Football (Soccer) , perhaps they should have stuck with Rugby Football (Rugger).

Why keep employing the likes of Bruce and Warnock??? I don't know if that is more or less obscene than the money flying around in the Premiership

Bruce has four Championship promotions to his name. If you're a Championship club with ambitions of getting promoted, there aren't many candidates better than Bruce.

Because Bruce in particular is a good manager at that level. Colin ****** may be very unlikable but he also has a good record over a very long time span.
