    Sven should have had longer. The circus continues...........

    £20M?!

    <yikes>

    Sven has brought in some decent players. Matt Mills was a solid addition and despite him having a awful time at my club, Paul Konchesky is a decent player and I though you would do well. And the Championship is a very tight league and a couple of good results and you would be right up there.

    From an outsider point of view, it look like a strange decision if it is true.

    EDIT: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/15438896.stm

    Looks like he is gone...

    Yeah, when Paulo went, his replacement was already lined up - don't be surprised if that's the case now. Owners reputation takes a hit IMO.

    Well thanks to Sven for his efforts. He brought us alot of big name players and was always polite and highly respectable. The image painted by the media is nothing like what Sven is like in real life

    Sven is a well mannered repectable gentleman

    You can shoot me all you like but i'm not one for a 'my grandad's friend's dog's mother's owner' story....but....

    I have heard from someone who works in the club that MON is being lined up as first choice. Whether or not he'll come is up to him.

    Apparently they tried for MON before Sven but he wouldn't come, hence they went for Sven.

    wow there was once a time when managers were given a few years to build a team. Football has changed so much in a short space of time. Seriously, who do you want next? Mclaren? I hear he's looking for work. :)

    In fairness to your manager he has lost his best players and hasnt had the money to replace them with simaliar standard players

    The only thing with Sven I dont think his motivational skills are suited the these league. His players pulling power cant be doubted as it would of been unthinkable to see people like Curtis Davies, Yakubu, Jermaine Beckford dropping down from the prem to come to the championship

    David Nugent, Matt Mills, Paul Konchesky, Kasper Schmeichel could of easily got moves to prem teams but came here.

    Neil Danns turned down champions league football to come here

    Bloody nuts. I'm no fan of the smooth swede but even if you've a man in the wings waiting to leap into his warm shoes this could put the club/team back weeks. Gawd a win last sat would have left you 4th!
    Sack Adkins for dropping two points at Reading I say.
