Wow, I know a lot of us have seen the problems with the team and management and have been calling for it for a few months, but can't believe it's actually happened, and happened so quickly after the end of the season as well. Kinda sad to see to be honest even if long term he probably wasn't the answer for us if we want to progress. Thanks Chris for the incredible work up to this point, great man and I'm sure he'll get a top job in the championship with an ambitious club. Need to get this new appointment spot on now
Wow. Thought it was a posibility but not very likely. Certainly better to do it now rather than mid-season. He seems like a lovely man and I feel sorry for him, but it's a ruthless business and I can understand why the board have concluded someone else might be a better option.
Probably the right time to be honest. Fully fledged legend, and doesn't have a bad stain of relegation against his name.
For those saying it should have been handled differently, I'm not sure how. If it had been announced before the game yesterday it would have been totally unprofessional as we would have had no real manager before the league decider. That would have been ludicrous
Chris has the freedom of our city, and thoroughly deserves it. He's probably suffered from being too loyal to certain players
