Zola and Clarke anyone?

Please let Jose return!

    To sack him for being 4th (like Adams albeit for different reasons) is just silly, the high expectations at board level (when they clearly make decisions not considering how competitive the Premeirship actually is) is stupid beyond belief.

    A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

    Well Scolari will now have to 'Get on his bike' and look for a job?

    Brilliant.

    After England lose their next game, he can be hired as manager of England.

    Yep, I'm pretty shocked too. Who will they want in next? I hope Capello is happy with England.

    Well clearly he had it coming.

    I have no idea who he is or what he does.

    Chelsea - also known as Heart of Midlondon. Time to start playing in purple.

    What's that noise? Oh, its the 30,000 "real" Chelsea fans coming back down to earth.

    Show's over, folks, time to go home.

    For sale : one champions league place.

    For sale : 15 high mileage footballers.

    So no one at Chelsea noticed this season had started quite quite well until they appointed Ray Wilkins as coach? Like Brian Kidd at Leeds (job very well done), and Sparky at City (doing reasonably well considering the financial backing), another ex-United player shows where their heart still is by fcuking thing up for their rivals

    Now if we could just get Bryan Robson a job at Liverpool, even if it was only behind the bar...

    I think you can forget Jose. Abramovich is too hard-headed to back down in my opinion. But how much is he prepared to spend on a new regime? He didn't want to give the Brazilian much of a budget and cuts were already being made elsewhere (making players pay for their own meals - that speaks volumes). I think things are very much awry down at the Bridge. Mind you, the most urgent job must be axing Kenyon!

    Well he might have won a world cup but obviously the failure to beat the mighty Tigers has cost yet another manager their job

    To be honest, Steve MacLaren could win the World Cup with Brazil , eek!

    And he's looking to get back into the Premiership (in a Dutch accent).

    Yeah I wondered about Sven, hope not though. When will Clubs learn to stick with 1 Manager. Look at Milan, United and Arsenal for God's sake.

    7 months is not long enough. Mind you Roman should have just learned to live with Jose, given enough time he could have achieved really great things with the Club, Terry still rates him as the best coach he's ever had.

    i thought he was going to go at the end of season when they hadn't won anything, to sack a manager at this stage seems silly to me, harry did a rare thing at spurs where he jumped right in and started doing better for the club normally takes a while so i can't see them improving soon

    To be fair it would have been hard to do worse than Ramos though...
