Unfortunately, there's a right old collection of tosspots and miscreants available right now. Why the fudge didn't they axe him weeks ago when they had good reason instead of making themselves look even bigger pricks by issuing the statement and giving him their backing? Why the fudge didn't they say bye-bye last week after the Brentford debacle? Joke management full of plucky amateurs.
 
JFH win ratio was 29.9%, better than Gerry Francis (28.8%) but not as good as Stewart Houston (39.68). Which just goes to show its not really the % of victories but more about the way we played.
 
Me too and I had them first.
Oh ha ha I guess that is a dig at me because I was right all along?
At the end of the day I am actually sad I have just found out about Jimmy's sacking. He didn't help himself though. 28% win rate says it all especially in such a poor division.
We all know about team selections/tactics and sorry to dissapoint some but the committment of some of the players was lousy. However we need to look higher than him. If an idiot like me knew he wouldn't be good enough, what does it tell you about the fools that hired him?
The last person we need is that dick 'Dim Tim'. If they choose him then I believe that TF is harming the club
We need someone decent and please don't mention Hollowhead (been there done that).
I hate to say I told you so because it meant harming the my club and i don't like that.
Let's hope they get it right next time>

Wow!
Just woke up to see this.
Wow!
Oh, had to be done but as many have made comment about, surely not Sherwood.
It will be.
It has to be SLF last chance to get thing right.
As we all know, with Sherwood, it can only end in tears.

Fat Sam will surely never come whilst we have a DoF in place.
I wouldn't see a problem having him, we are already tainted in everyway after the last couple of years.

We could steal Warnock from Cardiff, bring Adel back for old times' sake; offer Clint another 3 year term.
Joey can tack on again for another round and while were at it, let's cap it off with flying SWP back from the MLS mascot services.

If it sounds like l'm going crazy, your correct but l have every right to lose my marbles following our club.

Sorry guys/gals but we really need to avoid Ainsworth/Holloway/Keane/Giggs/Dim Tim/Bircham/Clint.
I would go foreign first. (Don't laugh because they don't have jobs Roberto Mancini or Manuel Pellegrini) :emoticon-0102-bigsm
or maybe Big Sam/ Pearson/ clement.
 
The saga continues, next one off the conveyer belt, Tim nice but dim until July,Then we start the progress all over again
 
Wasn't Paul Clement the dream manager that got away?

He's still with Ancelotti at Bayern Munich as his assistant manager. I would take his record at Derby with only 7 losses in 33 matches, sacked in 5th place, what's not to like? I wonder if he would come if asked? Perhaps Tony & Les should get on the plane and have a chat with him?

Ancelotti was sacked on 25 May 2015 and Clement walked out four days later.[6] Soon after, on 1 June, he was appointed manager of Football League Championship club Derby County, who had sacked Steve McClaren after finishing eighth the previous season.[7] He was sacked on 8 February 2016.[8] His final match was a 1–1 draw against Fulham.[9] They were in fifth place at the time was sacked.[8] He finished with a record of 14 wins, 12 draws, and seven losses.[10]
Clement was hired by Bayern Munich in June 2016 as their assistant manager.[11]

Apparently we are being linked with Guidolin, recently sacked by Swansea. If my memory is right we were after him when the Goons were on one of their sacking sprees...

Really......JFH was supposedly inexperienced and fans didn't want him learning the trade with us......so apart from being a top player and a coach what experience of management does Giggs have?
Totally agree. He will be another disaster.
