Hope Powell sacked

[Simster]

If the Euros are anything to go by, this has to be a good thing. She struck me as the female equivalent of Tony Pulis.

Wait till the PC brigade get hold of this, racism and sexism all rolled into one.

 

[Mellotron]

Sacking a woman? Disgraceful.

 

[Hillian1]

Micheal Appleton to take over?

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

Wait till the PC brigade get hold of this, racism and sexism all rolled into one.

First thing that came to my mind as well.

It's odd though as a few years ago she was held in very high regard and I thought the football she had them playing was really good. Where did it all go wrong?

I may have been fooled into thinking it was good football as I spent most of my time watching the lovely Rachel Unitt

 

[Badger]

You can only cling on to Hope for so long...

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Wait till the PC brigade get hold of this, racism and sexism all rolled into one.

Is she a lesbian? You can add a third if so.

 

[Puppet Master]

Is she a lesbian? You can add a third if so.

Probably.

 

[Maximus]

A job for Gus?

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

But look who brought those subjects into this thread....

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Andy Grey and Richard Keys to take control?

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Step forward Cherie Lunghi

 

[PWA]

Step forward Cherie Lunghi

Is she related to Simon Cowell?

 

[Mo Gosfield]

Hope Powell is the female equivalent of the worst type of British manager. A non-achiever who can sell themselves until the cows come home. Full of motivational speak and soundbite but scratch below the surface and there ain't a lot there.
How she has survived so long defies belief. Is it that the authorities are so desperate to be pc, that they have just persevered with her and in the complete absence of a credible replacement, dear old ' Bob ' has lingered long past her sell-by date.

 

[Ernest]

Some idiots were saying a while back she could be manager of a mens Prem/Champ team. Absolute bollocks, her and Pearce are the worst kind of coaches and should be kept well away from any footballing job

 

[Nigella's Cream Pie]

We were already Hope-less

 

[Kumquat]

It's not the despair, Laura, I can cope with the despair. It's the hope I can't stand.
