Why is it that so many managers, having got their teams promoted, get fired if their team doesn't do that well in a higher division ?

 

[Edgefield]

How stupid, what do they expect?? - hope they go down...

Short Sacked! - Notts. County FC forum from footymad.net

Don't think they are too happy about it.

 

[Smithy]

Oh no. We are going to lose Gus to them.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Ridiculous.

He didn't. He's only been there a few months.

 

[Joe Pineapples]

Crikey.

he didn't get them promoted

Didn't they lose half their squad in the summer too?
Strange decision.

He didn't. He's only been there a few months.

Yes I realise that now but even so, the bloke has hardly been there and besides, a lot of teams do sack their managers after a promotion.

 

[Giraffe]

Nuts. Another decision that makes you hate football. When will these people learn.

Steve Cotterill got County promoted & i think that you will find many County fans were surprised when Short was appointed.

 

[tonymgc]

SHOCKING desicion, Did they honestly expect anything more than milling around mid table?

 

[severnside gull]

More to it than league results I would think as they are only a couple of wins away from the play-off places like almost everyone else in this league and have been playing reasonably well. Something going on in the boardroom or in the dressing room maybe?

 

[Easy 10]

5 wins in 13 games is not too shabby for a promoted side. They're 4 points off the playoffs for christs sake, absolutely ridiculous decision.

That club is run by a bunch of flids.

 

[redneb]

Lets all hope they lose next Saturday now.

I saw that headline and didn't register the notts county bit at first and wondered why some back room member of staff at newcastle losing his job was such a high placed news item.

Very harsh decision!
