I've been on cloud nine since I heard at about 4 o'clock. Quite frankly the happiest I've felt in weeks.

I'm relieved that he's gone. But celebrating sacking your manager is a little bit Wolves.

Just my opinion, and not a criticism of anyone in particular.

Celebrating sacking this particular manager is worthy of an extra bank holiday.

I agree, but I'm working out of town and I'm going to use it as it's as good a reason as any to get smashed on a Monday night.

I'm not sure about Martinez.  I admire his approach to football, and he's clearly improving as time goes on, but I think he'd struggle to impose his style on our current side, so we'd need to bring in a few quality replacements.

I really would go with Lambert to be honest.

Yeah, IMO its starting to look like a no brainer now. Considering his non-committal statement when asked about his future at Norwich, it looks like he's hoping for a crack at a bigger club. The only thing is that maybe Liverpool would want him, but at the same time I think they'll go for Van Gaal.

i think it is between Lambert and Martinez, with Lambert the favourite on the basis of what you said about him being non committal
i think Martinez could end up at Liverpool if they decide to remove KKK

He's not going anywhere, be it this season or the next.

7 wins in 29, 2 wins in 2012; its beyond piss poor.

1st win was from a player that isn't here no more.
2nd win came via a goalkeeping error.

It's just embarrassing now the board must know this over anything, I think he'll be gone in the next month slash 6 weeks and good riddance too.

What a great day. I've been asleep all day just woke up to the news!

I don't care what anyone else thinks, and I don't care how petty it makes us look. We've had very little to celebrate this season, let us have our moment.
