Irvine gone

[bhaexpress]

Surprised there isn't a Gus to Sheffield Wednesday thread yet.

There will be, they're a 'big club' remember.

Could this be the reason Neville has suddenly retired as he is going to venture into management like we did with Mullery.

I'd love Big Ron to come back into football

interesting call and not entirely out of the question I would think

they are already singing in the streets over Irvine's dismissal - if Neville was appointed they'd be dancing around with their todgers in their hands

Kevin Keegan now 2/1jf!

Can't see Keegan cutting it in League 1 tbh

From football365.com:

"We haven't won a league game since I arrived at the club," said Milan Mandaric, explaining the dismissal of Alan Irvine as Sheffield Wednesday this morning.

Wednesday have played six times since Mandaric's purchase was finalised, and while it's true that the Owls haven't won any of those games, what is also true is that they won four of the previous six and were second in League One when he arrived.

Some might suggest it isn't Irvine who's the problem here

Done lower leagues before with Fulham.
Give him money to spend and he'll be good.
They'd have to be phenomenal to get up with us though, unless we fall out of the automatic promotion race.

Poor timing. I'd rather they'd left this until the week before 22nd February when they play Bournemouth.

Seriously funny looking on the Owlstalk website - so much bollocks about people not being good enough for a club with aspirations to be in the premier league in a few years. It quite reminds me of, well....................................................looking on here

This place is NOTHING LIKE as bad as OwlsTalk for utterly delusional bollocks.

That website is probably the shittest delusional forum I've EVER seen. It is absolute f***ing JOKES.

 

[Simster]

Bless, there's even a thread entitled "Poyet or O'Driscoll".

As if Gus is going to end up at their shambles of a club, with its shit overpaid squad and ground that is too big for the club and in need of a lick of paint.

My previously mentioned minion agrees with that opinion of owlstalk.

 

[Robdinho]

Looks like it's going to be Megson

Suspect a lot of Wednesday fans might be a little underwhelmed by that...

 

[public school boy]

Adams has already applied for the job

 

[Blackadder]

Interesting that Mandaric sacked Irvine just AFTER the transfer window closed.

Whoever comes in will have to wait until the summer to bring players in (assuming he's given any funds, Mandaric might have taken over another club by then!)

 

[Gwylan]

Can't believe the amount of posts suggesting Poyet.

"If you don't ask, you don't get" - why aim so low then, perhaps you could see if Mourinho or Wenger fancies life oop north

 

[severnside gull]

Interesting that although Megson is the favourite there is a strong rumour at wednesday and notts county that mandaric is using him as a screen to make an approach for Paul Ince and a back-up if he gets no joy there

 

[severnside gull]

Sky now reporting that Megson about to be appointed. Got to be excellent from their viewpoint. Doesn't play the prettiest of football but he has a track record of success which is what they need. Is it already too late for this season though?

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

He's also an ex Wednesday player, which sometimes helps.
