    As mental as football is it does seem he walked rather than for the push. Either way the timing is bizarre.

    Sounds like he wanted players in over the Summer and they didn’t, would guess the conversation was along lines of unless you give me the players not much I can do etc.

    Cant be true. There's only our owners in the whole football league who are tight fuckers and refuse pay more than 5 million a year

    Don't know the full ins and outs but I thought he'd done a decent job there with a lower budget than most other championship clubs but the timing is strange. I'd say it's maybe his decision given the timing as otherwise the club would have surely moved him on at the end of last season. It will be interesting to see who they bring in.

    Should have gone at the end of last season. It's stupid giving him the summer transfer budget, allow him to work with the players and then sacking him after losing to a side that's just come down from the top flight.

    A sacking one game in happened in Scotland as well.
