Tyrant Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Just watched the highlights of the Motherwell v Hibs game. Looked a hell of a lot more entertaining than our 6-5 game at Fir Park ten years ago. Some good goals, some shocking goals, horrific backpass by Giles Coke, but stunning goal by Jutkiewicz (why couldn't we have found this player rather than Rutkiewicz?) to grab the draw To be fair I think that's been his one and only good game so far and they still didn't win!

manc_don Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Whilst watching some of it on Saturday, I was faced with a very hard decision, who did I want to go down? luckily I thought it through and realised that Elvis was a big prick and I couldn't wait to see the end of him.

BobbyBiscuit Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Zola sacked West Ham have announced they have sacked manager Gianfranco Zola after a traumatic season which nearly ended in relegation. Zola, who took charge in September 2008, led the side to just seven home wins in a campaign disrupted by public criticism from the club's new co-owners David Sullivan and David Gold. They finished fourth from bottom, five points above Burnley. The announcement was made following a meeting between Zola and the owners to discuss the club's future structure. The future of his assistant Steve Clarke is unclear. Mark Hughes and Slaven Bilic have been linked with the vacancy. A club statement said: "West Ham United can confirm that they have terminated the contract of Gianfranco Zola. "The Board of Directors would like to thank him for his contribution and wish him well for the future. The club will now be focusing its efforts on seeking a replacement."

RDU_64 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Harsh, but he was never going to last sadly. The owners really didn't seem to like him. Not particularly harsh is it? West Ham have had an awful campaign this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Not particularly harsh is it? West Ham have had an awful campaign this season. True, but I wouldn't blame it all on the manager. The club was properly in turmoil for most of the season. They actually played decent football I thought and were quite unlucky at times to be where they were. Its just a shame because he appeared to be quite a genuine guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, perhaps luck has also played it's part. The clubs finances were and probably still are a mess which is not his fault whatsoever and I don't think he really ever had the full backing of Gold/Sullivan, as can be seen as by putting in a bid for Dorrans. He steered them towards safety by the skin of their teeth but time to go their seperate ways. Yes, I think Zola is a nice and genuine guy who I have no doubt would receive a nice welcome at most grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyBiscuit Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 £70k a week for Kieron Dyer, whoever agreed that deal really needs their head checked. Forever injured and not even that great when he's not. Has a head like Chewbacca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ally s Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Been rumoured for a while now that MacPherson would be gone once the season ended. No doubt he'll end up in the Championship/League 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baggy89 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Aye plenty of goals. I think it would have been a different game if the defender that played Mr Potato Head onside hadn't convinced the lino he was offside ten minutes after the goal was scored though.

maverick sheep Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Whoever does go up will be going straight back down as the three of them are rank. My bet is cardiff - cue a year of 'if a welsh team can do it then why not the OF?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_min Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 My bet is cardiff - cue a year of 'if a welsh team can do it then why not the OF?' Thats pretty much why I want them to go up, the OF will greet all season about not being allowed in. I'd enjoy their misery tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
