    Thought not.

    Amazingly shown the door by Newcastle. What a shock.

    At least he got to celebrate his 1000 match with a home defeat!

    They need a drastic upturn in results after the transfer window re-opens.

    Could see him at Cardiff, if Big Mick get's the sack.

    We could be waiting for Big Mick to get the sack.

    I think it's more likely that we're not sacking Schopp at all and he's here for the foreseeable.

    If by we, you mean the fans, then quite possibly.

    If you are talking about the owners and senior management of our global sports investment conglomerate, then I very much doubt he is on the spreadsheet.

    I can't see him wanting to take over in this **** storm. TBH I think that would be the issue with any recognised manager TBH.

    Dont think he is any more realistic an option than Wilder. I dont particularly like the guy but he would be an improvement on what we have but if we were in his market there are others I would have first
    We arent looking anyway Schopp hasnt even been given a vote of confidence yet

    Fans impatient at a run of 4 straight defeats (conceding 6, scoring 1).... want to replace said coach with someone who has lost 6 in a row, conceding 15 in the process and scoring 1.

    Had a better track record though, and did well with Cardiff last season.

    No thanks, at the first hint that he's not getting his own way or a better job he just resigns. Not a chance he would want the "hassle" at Barnsley and not a chance we'd pay him what he'd demand or give him access to the transfer budget he'd expect. I'd rather keep Schopp.

    When the time comes it`s unlikely we`ll get anybody we`ve heard of.

    They wanted him out before the takeover though. 3 points from 8 games and no wins? So long Brucie

    I was going to laugh at that and talk about compensation agreements etc but actually there might be something in that. Should the same people take over my company I would be looking for any excuse to leave and if they offered to pay me to go I would probably consent.
    I expect they agreed an amicable compensation package for him to go and also if his contract is now finished presumably he can take a new job when Schopp is fired

    I'm starting to feel sorry for Schopp. I don't know why but I've gone from raging and wanting him sacking to not being arsed.
