brian laws resigns at burnley

 

[7:18]

apparently just to make way for Micky Adams!

 

[empire]

ouch

 

[The French Mistress]

I thought Adams was off to Sheff U ?

 

[Tricky Dicky]

The Burnley fans have been complaining about him since he got there, didn't stand a chance.

 

[crasher]

That's "resigned" in the sense of being sacked.

Alway seemed like an odd appointment taking him to the Premier after Sheff Wed couldn't wait to see the back of him.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Chairman Brian Kilby told the Burnley website: "I have telephoned Brian today and asked him to step down as manager of Burnley Football Club. "Everyone is naturally disappointed and frustrated that recent results have not gone as we would have hoped.

"The board of directors has decided that we need a fresh approach in order to achieve our goal of returning to the Premier League." "

Two points off the playoffs and in 9th position.

 

[severnside gull]

ouch - shafted over the phone. Beats a text I guess (just)!

Up there with being sacked over an all day breakfast at Little Chef that is.

 

[Notters]

That's Poyet gone then.

 

[Eric Potts]

And Ferguson gone at Preston : Dancing on the streets of Deepdale tonight

That does make me laugh. One season since 74 in the top flight and they think they should be there all the time now.
Mind you I do think Laws is crap.

 

[Gully]

Mind you I do think Laws is crap.

...it does show how good Owen Coyle is doesn't it, he dragged that club up to the Premiership and is now working wonders with Bolton!

idiot

And if they beat Chelsea tonight, they'll go above them .... here's hoping.

Been coming for a while. Over-achieved at Peterboro but what an obnoxious bastard - up there with Denis Wise as one of the nastier poieces of work in football

 

[Gully]

Yes, indeed...and the way Chelsea are playing at the moment that isn't beyond the realms of possibility!

And the way Bolton are playing. Unfortunately I fear that Chelsea at home will win, possibly easily and could be the start of their ressurection.
