Why sacking doesn't succeed

[3gulls]

From the BBC, a Warwick Business School study says so:

Why sacking doesn't succeed

Freddy Shepherd springs to mind. Keep the faith Dick.

So we should have stuck with Tinselhead?

Brian Horton didnt leave because of a better job offer he left to be nearer his family, who live in Cheshire.

Not true. There was plenty of talk of him getting the chop last season, and I believe on the official Crewe website at the moment there is a poll asking fans whether he should be sacked or not.

Gradi will NEVER be sacked. Asked to move upstairs, probably, but not sacked.

That is the polite cheapest way of sacking a manager. No lump sum as compensation just keep paying his wages until his contract expires or he gets fed up with doing nothing and resigns for another managers job.

And the fact that Port Vale were in a higher division had nothing to do with it? Yeah, right

Last season, of the bottom 5, Rotherham, Forest and Gillingham, having sacked managers, were relegated.

Crewe and us stayed up.

Port Vale did the same thing with John Rudge after he'd been there donkey's years didn't they.

I think it's one of those diplomatic descisions the board have to make to please the majority of the fans.

IF he is sacked, he would make a great director of youth.

Can you bounce this every day please?

Gillingham and Forest IMPROVED after sacking their managers. Rotherham didn't, but they didn't appoint anyone decent.

It was just that the previous manager's had done too bad a job for the new one's to turn it around.

Basically what this should be called is "why sacking doesn't work sometimes".

 

[Deleted User X18H]

We have had 11 managers I believe. They have got it wrong.

McGhee
Booker
Coppell
Hinshelwood
Taylor
Adams
Wood
Horton
Gritt
Lloyd
Case

Not quite do you remember an Irishman called Brady I think.

We were taking a massive gamble when we appointed him.

Tried and tested managers are a much safer bet - according to the report.
