Wow, odd timing indeed, just 4hrs ago he was talking about their match tomorrow on the official twitter.

Weird given where they are in the table - a slim chance of the play offs but still a chance.

Maybe they were fearful he'd get a positive result against Blackburn tomorrow? Getting rid now gives them time to get someone in before the international break starts. That way it gives the new person time to get to know the squad before having a fixture and will allow them to soon start building plans for a promotion push next season.

Yeah, I was thinking that, the tweets earlier from them seemed far from confident about tomorrow, but I'd have expected them to get something out of it with him there. Just seemed odd to wait until Friday afternoon with the fixture tomorrow, unless something radically changed at training or something, surely they could have binned him early in the week.
Hope they take a few points of our competition now, then roll over for us! :albion2:

Said he should have been sacked after losing to us in October. Team had no spirit with players played out of position all over the pitch.
If Ed Balls had been doing his job rather than Strictly come Dancing they could be where we are.
Expect they moved now before someone else got there target. Rowett or Warburton?

Not a surprise but at least the new managers purple patch should be over by the time we get there. Whag always surprises me is that clubs sack the manager then put his no 2 or a coach who has contributed to thir resultsu, in charge. Not the correct decision to make but at least Birmingham outed all and put a complete new man and team in place immediately. Norwich should have done the same behind the scenes andthen just announced the new manager shortly after the sacking ,perhaps the next day.
