I hope it does, I hope they never get promoted again.Strange sacking which could well backfire on them
What, promotion *and* FA Cup?Another black manager bites the dust. Have to do twice as much typically.
Yea, that should be enough to get the token pass.What, promotion *and* FA Cup?
Any Championship club (bar rare exceptions like Newcastle) who "expect"/feel like they have a devine right to finish in the top 2, need to get real.It looks like WBA have delusions of grandeur - seeing themselves as natural automatic promotion candidates, when there's no such thing.
That said, I've not watched them during this recent run of form. I don't know what's happening behind the scenes, with the squad or between the manager and the board. First instinct though was that Moore was doing a decent job and this is like the Derby board deciding it was a good idea to have 7 managers in less than 3 years.
That could be the only possible reason why he got the sack.Another black manager bites the dust. Have to do twice as much typically.
Just enjoy the impact. A chap a work (United fan) said he hoped Ole would not "be a Di Matteo". If Ole did "do a Di Matteo" (win both the FA Cup and Champions League but then be shit next season) I would think he'd take that.It does worry me slightly that another caretaker manager has been sacked after their instant impact gradually faded away.
Didn’t say it’s ‘because’ he is black. I said ‘another black manager bites the dust’.It’s not because he’s black. Change the fecking record.
They’re on a poor run of form and he’s made some baffling decisions. His two assistants have gone as well, who were rumoured to be making a lot of the decisions because Moore is a bit clueless
Newcastle, Burnley, Birmingham and (most importantly I guess) West Brom have all got automatic promotion the season after they were relegated.Apart from Newcastle how many clubs have been relegated then finished in the top 2 the following season?
There is literally a post in here that says it’s because he’s black. May be sarcastic though.Didn’t say it’s ‘because’ he is black. I said ‘another black manager bites the dust’.
Why would the board wake up one day and decide ‘hang on, didn’t realise our manager was black all this time, you’re sacked’? It doesn’t work like that, but the metrics appear to be slightly different I do maintain.
Doubt anyone thinks he was sacked because he was black.It’s not because he’s black. Change the fecking record.

He’s still well in the promotion hunt, and his sacking is generally being treated as odd.There is literally a post in here that says it’s because he’s black. May be sarcastic though.
Anyways they’ve binned his white assistants as well. He should have that squad closer to Norwich than he does and they’ve just been thumped by Leeds and drew with the worst side in the league.
This is exactly how I'm looking at it. I'm just enjoying every game, and not for a second expecting it to last. I don't think we're still in the honeymoon period, but at the same time I think it's naive to expect this level of performance long term. I don't think it's as simple as "we're back!" anyway, so yeah I'm just enjoying this crazy sequence while it lasts. With that said, I'm fully behind Ole. How could you not be?Just enjoy the impact.
