No doubt has something to do with the backlash he's been under due to his recent comments! Dale Vince doesn't like any negativity towards FGR and I think he's just got shut now, even though Deeney has back peddled his comments somewhat.
https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/jan/18/troy-deeney-forest-green-rovers-football What a really odd club they are. It was only two days ago they were supporting him against racists.... https://www.fgr.co.uk/news/club-statement
hardly a surprise really. he's probably completely lost the dressing room from his rant, and impossible to come back from that. untenable position he's put himself in. I predict a bright future for him on talksport.
I'm not sure why you're implying it's hypocritical of them to defend him against racists and then sack him? Should they have put a statement out backing the racists cos they knew they were going to be sacking him?
Forgetting Troy Deeney for a second. They (Forest Green) remind me of Rushden and Diamonds and Dagenham and Redbridge. The way they shot up and are fizzling out like a wet fanny fart.
He is not cut out to be a manager after his public outburst. You keep that in the dressing room walls. FGR look to be going back to their level TBH. Been a nice adventure, but very few non league clubs sustain it for long. There are also many former league clubs struggling at level 6 too TBH.
By that token shouldn't Heckingbottom of kept his gob shut or resigned after the 4-0 drubbing at Rotherham in pre-season 2017?
It was inevitable he was on borrowed time after what he said to the press. His honest feedback should have been kept private to the dressing room and he should have provided a diplomatic response externally. Will be interesting to see if the players react and put in a performance in their next game or if they continue to play *****.
Deeney was probably just really frustrated at how **** they are and the fact they've got players who can't do the basics and more! They'll be down with games to spare.
I'm glad they were everyone's go to second team. Worse than Von Ryan's express in Donny. Just because they wipe their arses with their hands and wash em' in vegan spring water. Doesn't make em any better not using bog roll.
