Toony Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 That just seems very harsh indeed. He seems to have done a decent job and they've just came off the back of a good result at Blackpool. Something must have gone on behind the scenes.
Smiley Culture Posted April 10, 2017 Author Posted April 10, 2017 14th in their return to the Football League, 7pts off the play-off's, a million miles away from relegation danger and he's been there about six months. What an odd decision. Got to be more to this.

Smiley Culture Posted April 10, 2017 Author Posted April 10, 2017 4 wins in 13 games. Only got the job in November so had one transfer window to do anything.
Administrator Stan Posted April 10, 2017 Administrator Posted April 10, 2017 I really do not understand football clubs and their owners sometimes I can only imagine there's been a huge bust-up between him and those higher up the heirarchy and angry words were exchanged or 'irreconcilible differences'. Maybe things were boiling in the background and they came to blows over the weekend?
Smiley Culture Posted April 11, 2017 Author Posted April 11, 2017 Players weren't prepared to commit to new contracts under his rein it seems, Russell Slade looks like he's going back there to mend his somewhat broken reputation after, stupidly IMO, taking jobs at Charlton and Coventry.

Bluebird Hewitt Posted April 11, 2017 Posted April 11, 2017 SSN were reporting that Russell Slade is to become the new manager within 24 hours.
Toony Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Good appointment at that level, last season he had Cardiff on the brink of the play-offs in the Championship. He should have bided his time a bit after leaving instead of jumping into those car crash clubs.
