gordon, you've blown it mate.</p> Here we go again, thought we'd finally got past this knee jerk reaction ******. Here we had a manager well liked and respected by the vast majority of fans [despite the teams current predicament ... not very often a club can say that].</p> We had the fans on side, a young team playing attractive football [finally after years of dross].</p> A team with a future.</p> I'm guessing we'll now have years of short term managers, lots of internal bickering, with the inevitable relegation.</p> Have to say I'm gutted ... please gordon in future leave the manager to manage.</p> Oh, and I hope to God you already have the replacement lined up, surely you're not that shortsighted.</p>
