Jeez. He hasn't been there that long.

Their fans seem pretty chuffed he's gone. I'd imagine that'll be the end of him as a manager now. Sad as I really liked him.

Unbelievable, the man is not or has ever been an impact manager, I know this, any fan with an ounce of football knowledge knows this. Do these Chairman ever check these facts. Time and patience with the likes of Sean O'Driscoll, a footballing man through and through.
I really wish Fawaz had granted the man far more time.

Have to admit I'm shocked at this news although I shouldn't be with the modern day butchery of chairman and owners of football clubs nowadays.

It seems patience is a thing of the past, how short sighted is that decision? Perhaps McLaren has been tapped up?

It's all about mid-table...
He'll be alright, he'll make far more money and a better lifestyle/house/car than 98% on here.
He's sound.

They couldn't afford him.

It's not all about money though, is it? Poor bloke wants to prove he's a decent manager and keeps getting the rug pulled. How very frustrating.

Crap appointment for Walsall at the time to be honest. It's not sod's fault but as sedge said he isn't a manager who is good enough to implement his strategy straight away, he is a project manager. Saying that if Walsall don't appoint a short term manager now the sacking would be utterly pointless. They need a di Canio type or a Davies for what the goals they are looking to strive for in the time period.
Sod is overrated but also has been unlucky. Undeservedly sacked at forest and was completely the wrong man at Walsall. He had no excuses at Bristol city though that was just a poor performance.

It goes back to the old problem of how long you give a manager doesn't it. Seems to me that very little homework goes on in some appointments resulting in a too hasty departure.
Clearly some managers should never work again though.

I'd quite like to be a football manager, just get the media protocol learned a one win in three and you're made.

It does make you wonder how hard it can be. I think it must be 70% bull shine and 30% luck. Don't need many sackings to be more than set up for life.

Fawaz gave Davies a second shot. Would he do the same with SOD?

I'm drinking Nottingham Brewery Legend Bitter, but I doubt that will allow me to come up with a "fantasy football" lineup for NFFC.
It isn't that strong for starters. I'd probably need to try turps or meths.
