Bobby Williamson Sacked

[London Irish]

He got sacked from Gillingham for gross misconduct didn't he and sacked from Stoke for not using the foreign transfer market or do you know more than the rest of us

The results at both teams were far from relegation form at the time weren't they, so hardly footballing reasons for dismissal. Hope he doesn't get the chance to turn Plymouth round

Not being able to sign foreign players is not a "footballing reason" failure?

Let me just say, I'm glad that it's not a failure that McGhee shares

 

[London Irish]

I presume there are. And they are more than likely the same sort of reasons that meant the likes of Micky Adams, Peter Taylor, Steve Coppell and Mark McGhee were out of jobs before they took over at Albion.

Well, that's certainly setting a standard for Pulis

That was the rather bizarre reason given, lets's see if Stoke do better this year with a manager who does what he's told rather than what he thinks best?

I think Pulis is more of an Ernest type manager who wants hard working anglo saxon lads

Tony Pulis has never signed a player shorter than 6ft.

As backhanded compliments go, that's one of the best I've heard

I wonder if Dave Jones will be next, alongside Plymouth in the table, and they've shelled out all that money......
