He is not available

Very surprised. I thought we were on a "project" that was long term and even if we went down he would see it through.

This smacks of short-term panic and not long term planning.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

Not sure what other players you think PV had to choose from . We were under no or very little threat of relegation under Patrick with the remaining fixtures . That has now become a possibility with a change of manager .
And I'll tell you one thing joe , whoever the new manager is Schlupp will be on the team sheet because he is one of the few in the squad that does as he is instructed by the coach

Very emotive however I empathise entirely.

Who would of thought a squad only half revamped, with a young therefore inexperienced manager, not even close to sufficiently invested in over the summer with an extremely difficult, long run of games, ends up not winning or scoring for months and sack the man first in the firing line.

From a football perspective it had to be done however the fact it was allowed to play out as it has is a shambles. PV had to go, he didn't have the answers, but answers are needed for questions that are of the board's making.

I'd love to of known what conversations were had between PV and the powers that be. Did they say to him 'Come in, we'll get some young, exciting players for you, but then after that absolutely sod all and you're on your own'.

Sacked on St Patrick's Day too, seems almost vindictively ironic.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Wow. Where to begin...

Exciting???? Ha! Statistically we averaged more goals under Roy.

Did you have as much outrage when we sacked 'young' DeBoer after 4 games?

No plan B. Same style, same formation, just rotate the players.
It's the height of madness to keep trying to do the same thing over and over again and expect a different result.
