    Anyone would think they are desperate to stay in the league.

    Still thankful our board are more stable than this. It cant be good for a club to keep chopping and changing all the time, must be costing them a fortune too.

    I'm not surprised, he struck me as being someone out of his depth, as does OGS.

    I think it's wrong and poor class.

    Not to even thank and mention Mulensteen when he took the job at short notice to try and turn things around shows little class. Poor show if you ask me.

    I had to smile, on twitter someone asked Gary Lineker who was advising the Fulham chairman! Lineker's reply? !Vincent Tan, I think!" <laugh>

    That is my view of it too.The two clubs involved are at the bottom of the current form league and OGS' only result was that,ahem,fortuitous win against us.

    So they let Meulensteen spend serious money on a new striker and bring in Holtby on high wages, then sack him before either have had a chance to show what they can do? I guess that's modern football.

    Whether they changed manager or not, I think they were going down regardless. Their fixture list is the stuff of nightmares!

    No, just following Lineker's line of thought (if that's the right word for it). Now I realise he just saw the opportunity for a cheap joke. <ok>

    Curbs will be back in management by the summer. Can't blame them, he seemed a bit amateur to me, which is bizarre given his cv. He would've taken them, this is their last roll of the dice.

    I think he proved that he's a good and well respected assistant but not yet a good manager. it can help that the two clubs he has managed have both been in massive turmoil. If he was given the opportunity to start calmly and work into it i think he could get the hang of management. Wouldn't be surprised if he goes back to Holland for a bit and proves himself there.

    Just madness really. Why not just accept your fate and start fresh in the summer. Now they have new players, no manager, have a load to pay out on the managers they have sacked and are bottom of the league. It's like they are trying to put themselves in the worst position possible!
