Ani Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 And which chairman saw to that? Gartside paid him as per his contract which he is legally obliged to do. Quote
Whites man Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Gartside paid him as per his contract which he is legally obliged to do. Contracts in football; manager, shit at his job is fired, paid up in full. Player wants to break a contract & move to another club, no major problem. Club wants to get rid of a player who no one wants, has to pay him off in full. Nice work if u can get it. Quote
tomski Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 And since then ? Pullis gave him some work at Stoke as a mate but not much else. Megson is a cunt, even if people think he was ok as a manager surely everyone agrees he is a cunt ? Such a mate that he didn't pay him ha ha. Quote

Player can not just walk if he wants which is where transfer fee comes in, new club is paying to break the contract on behalf of player. Quote
Traf Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Is it August yet?!! Is that when you're doing the WC draw? Quote
DomRepWanderer Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Was he not at Stoke when we appointed him? Or is my mind playing tricks on me? He is a cunt but he could have been a cunt for me if we got results. We were going down with him and that's a fact. No we poached him from Leicester. And no he would have kept us up, he had a clue.

Henry_VIII Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 No we poached him from Leicester. And no he would have kept us up, he had a clue. Aye course, old age is setting in. We were going down though, the atmosphere was toxic and getting worse. Not that it matters now we are were we are so let's get on with it. Quote
gonzo Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Don't really want to get into all this again,but I will anyway! :-) He'd already kept us up twice,including an easy mid table finish. There's nothing to suggest he couldn't do it again. The points total needed when he left to survive was relatively a small one that even with a sour atmosphere was achievable. All in IMO of course. The guy was a cunt,his tenure was poisonous. But he did the job he was asked to do. Quote

People quoting PPG or his previous seasons are ignoring momentum and the gathering negativity / lack of confidence from the players who had lost faith too...these things don't just play out on averages He was taking us down and the club into a terrible place Quote

jules_darby Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 we can either use averages, stats and facts or we can guessHow about the fact we were in the relegation zone? You seem inclined all season to "guess" when it comes to Freedman and the reasons for his lack of success rather than look at the "facts" - I.e. Poor results and league placings Quote
COYW Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 No we poached him from Leicester. Rescued him more like. Quote
jules_darby Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 If you want to stick to Megson facts He was sacked...no guessing there. So he wasn't up to it Same at Sheffield Weds And he hasn't worked since FACT Quote
tomski Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Thinly veiled JCL post.Wolves away was the one where I was desperate for him to go. We score hardly anyone cheered and people were muttering that will buy him another week. I think I went straight home and to bed. Quote
Guest JamesBond Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Deila appointed as Celtic Manager. So no Coyle there. Perhaps West Brom or Southampton might appoint Coyle. We will wait and see. Quote
Traf Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Deila appointed as Celtic Manager. Illiterate Norwich fans are devastated Quote

Guest JamesBond Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Sami Hypia appointed Brighton manager. Another job bites the dust for Coyle. Quote
Sweep Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Sami Hypia appointed Brighton manager. Another job bites the dust for Coyle. I don't see Could getting anything in the top two divisions, in fact I reckon he'll have to go back to Scotland if he wants to rebuild his career, and even the bigger clubs there probably won't touch him with a bargepole either Quote

He'll walk into a decent job in Scotland. Probably get another punt in the Championship too. More chance than the allegedly hard done to Gary Megson anyway. Quote
