    Bit silly to be sacking your manager this late in the season IMO......almost certain to go down now.

    They've been itching to sack him for months, their whole situation is unravelling fast and this will almost certainly scupper their chances of staying up with their nightmare last four games. No real class in the way they've done it.

    Col will be delighted though...

    They haven't exactly given their new manager an easy time to bed in.

    I think they've done it just to try and get the new manager bounce for their six pointer at Fulham which would see them safe if they win.
    Sacking a bad manager like Holloway gave palace a massive lift but I don't see it doing the same for Norwich.

    Holloway wasn't sacked, he walked. Cavalier with facts aren't you.

    Warnock for Norwich!

    Paul Hart gets my vote.

    In the immortal words of Keegan, 'I would luv it' if we pass them in the opposite direction.

    Feel sorry for Hughton. Seems a decent bloke.

    Just seen they replaced him with the youth team coach with no first team experience.

    Madness.

    Hughton is a decent man and a decent manager in my opinion.

    He was shat on by Toon as well. Norwich's board's obsession with balancing the books short term may mean they will miss out on the mega bucks available next year.

    Good.

    Agent Flyer? I'd just copy Redknapp tactics and relegate them.

    But he spent big on 3 forwards in hooper elmander and wolfswinkle and none of them can score.

    He's a decent bloke but he was pelted with missiles at the inbreds last match.

    The down side is that they may go for Mackay who a fair few on here want as our next manager.
