After the events of 9th August 2010, I have no pity with him whatsoever.

Unless they have an ace up their sleeve ready to take over I think that is crazy. I was in agreement with everybody after the Bolton game last season that McLeish had to go but I didn't see the point in him going before the end of the season. For me, unless you have an impressive alternative you either get rid in time for the new man to work the January transfer window or stick with your manager until the end of the season.

Revenge is sweet...

Would have been sweeter if he was sacked after we beat them though :)

Let's hope they don't get a lift with a new manager in.

We won't. I think that decision has just relegated us.  :-\

Wow. Load of overpaid lazy assed players left for the new guy to try and motivate. Please don't let them have a new boss bounce.

Shame, it would have been nice to put a very big nail in the coffin when they play us next month.

I wonder who they have lined up?

Roy Keane!!!?

Must be mad. You don't sack O'Neill at the END of March!
