I'm sorry but we were never going to beat man utd so what was the point? Only plus the club must be looking at is that the honeymoon period of a new manager keeps us in the prem, I can't imagine that Ellis new before the game regardless of the result he was gonna sack as a replacement would of already been lined up
It might have been decided a couple of weeks ago and Short waited until he'd drawn up a shortlist of suitable replacements. 7 games left is better than 4 or 5.
If the only plus of getting someone in is a honey moon period were we pick up some points and stay in the prem then I will take that all day long thank you
My guess is Short started looking for a new manager after the Embarrassment that was the Norwich game. I don't think today's game has anything to do with it
Man u's goal came almost directly from a dreadful decision to penalise a perfectly good tackle..So I hope he can sleep soundly in his bed tonight..
When we can't beat a 10 man Norwich who were going through a worse patch than us, the writing was on the wall
Rash decision. Provided we have a decent enough replacement lined up I won't mind. If it's McClaren, Curbishley, Hughes or anyone like that I'll be angry, though.
this is ridiculous. so angry right now. when will we ever learn some patience? this will be another new manager, another season wasted next year, another few transfer windows of ins and outs by the bucketload.. MON will go on to another club and do fine, like Bruce has. and if we chase out players like Johnson and Sess, or even the likes of Bardsley, they will also go on and flourish elsewhere. We seem to get rid of managers/players because they "aren't good enough for a club like ours" and then they go elsewhere and finish above us anyway.
So everyone is hoping for a honeymoon period? I'm sorry but with this shower of **** we have playing for us, we will be on honeymoon with this................. please log in to view this image
One win since beating Wigan before Christmas. Games where we've hardly troubled opposition defences. Stoke City fans aren't exactly happy either. It's going to be interesting.
"One win since Wigan since last Christmas. Games where we've hardly troubled opposition defences. Stoke City fans aren't exactly happy either. It's going to be interesting." Said on another post, anybody up to Stoke who are on 34 points are not out of the woods yet
Got to say, looking at the Sunderland posts, you guys really are fanatics up there! On that alone, you deserve to stay up at Wigan's expense.
How I wish the players cared us much as we do wouldn't be anywhere near this position If Wigan stay up surely they need to invest. It's the same thing every season for them
