The sacked manager thread

SonicShrimper · May 26, 2015

It's Spain, pretty much everything they do is ridiculous.

I do love the idea of Sam finding out from the BBC when they brought up that press release after the match. Bloody ****, can't stand him.

Thanks for La Décima Carlo, now **** off.

Ridiculous club.

Finish second to Real Madrid, (as Bobby Robson did) in La Liga and you also get asked to step down by Barça, (despite in his case also winning the European Cup Winners Cup and Spanish Cup in the same season).

I can't believe Rafa Is being linked with the Madrid job! Surely they can do better than him.

He used to be on the coaching staff at Real and has done a reasonable job with Napoli.

But to take over one of the biggest clubs in the world. When there is plenty of better applicants for the job.

Well at least he speaks good Spanish! :smile:

Due to get the job next week when his contract with Naples expires,apparently.

Rafa did very well at Valencia too, won the league twice and the UEFA cup too.

Yeah there was a lot of talk at the time that RM was the next logical step for him.

Indeed. Back to real, think also of Jupp Heynckes, winning 'La Séptima' and being asked to leave straight after. And as for how they treated Vicente Del Bosque...

But anyway. Don't see a problem with Rafael Benítez being lined up. Knows the club and has a very impressive list of honours to his name. Also really disliked by Chelsea fans, which as far as I'm concerned is a tick in the 'pro' column.

Not to mention the utter dismay on Merseyside that Rafa won't be in the Anfield dugout next season.

Over a month to go before the season starts and we've lost one. Nigel Pearson sacked as the "working relationship is no longer viable". Possibly down to the sacking of his son I wonder ...

Difficult to say. The Leicester fans forums are in **** down currently which is hardly surprising after his Houdini act last season. The few that have ventured an opinion do mention his son as a possible cause, but most are totally lost for a reason.

Later: Anyone know why M.E.L.T is blocked by the naughty filter?

Have to say my initial reaction was that it wasn't due to his son or results at the club. Only my opinion, but it strikes me he won't be the last manager sacked because his employers have finally realised he's actually a bit of a ****.

I thought he would have been sacked after that melee on the touchline a few months ago with an opposition player. He did well to keep The Foxes up though

Ask Barna, apparently it's an insult :unsure:

Thanks MK. I've done a bit of digging and found this http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=**** which makes it all a bit clearer. I've found this dictionary is very useful when deciphering Mr Stevart's bollocks as well.
