Remi- It has happened.

[PeterWithesShin]

Why sack him now and not after the ends of the season if there is no immediate replacement, and, if he is to go now, why wait a week and a half of a two week window to announce it?

Probably because he didn't want to be here any longer and we didn't want him any longer. Working out payoff would be my guess.

Hey you I just said that :-)

Apologies if already posted but while I find Pat Murphy's tone a bit snarky at times, it's hard to disagree with much of the BBC piece: http://m.bbc.com/sport/football/35355333

More importantly you wouldn't disagree with a word of SGT's quotes within the piece.

I feel for Garde, a toxic atmosphere that he couldn't change unless he bought in new players - and that was scuppered from quite possibly within the club depending on what reports you believe. 

Now for the clear out of at least 4-5 players that should be utterly ashamed of themselves tonight but almost certainly won't.

OK, he was definitely snarky on 5Live - http://bbc.in/25v7nRN

You've missed a '1' in front of your '4-5' there Oz...

In the history of football, if ever a manager was shafted all ways, repeatedly, and left in a heap, it was Remi Garde.

I wish him well and hope we don't shaft the next bloke, because by shafting him we'll be shafting ourselves. Again.

Seconded.

Grealish has just tweeted that he's "happy to be back in training"!!!

Distasteful. Just zip it and get your head down.

I agree. What a tosser Grealish is. These players are the worst players I've ever known to be associated with our club. They won't be receiving any of my support from now on. Sad days, but regarding Remi, necessary I feel.

Good luck to him.

As for the ****** brigade, you can be added too, Jack you fucking ballsack. His dad is a bellend, too.

For a long time now I've felt I supported the club as an institution rather than the players. I actually have far more respect for people like Hutton who might be a limited player but gives it his all, than someone sulky or lazy or perhaps even a cause of backroom issues in some cases.

Wow. I understand that there's little if any goodwill for our players right now, in particular Grealish with his off field antics, but this is a massive over-reaction to an ill-timed tweet at worst. He's a young lad coming back from injury and almost certainly understands that he has a lot to prove, so don't agree with the level of vitriol shown towards him for this.

[pauliewalnuts]

We seem to have to use the "he's a young lad" line about jack a bit too often for my liking.

[django]

Also maybe if Garde hadn't singled him out for criticism publicly on numerous occasions then Grealish wouldn't be publicly gloating.

At the Wycombe replay Grealish had a nightmare. Most of the players did, but he stood out, probably because we've seen more from him previously, and he just looked so short on confidence. I was really surprised to see Garde slate him in the press afterwards. He certainly didn't learn that from Wenger.

Very true, if only he could demonstrate the level of maturity and discretion that I possessed at the age of 20.....erm, on second thoughts probably not.
