He has gone at last.

[fiction-factory]

At last? Have you been calling for his dismissal for some time Mikey?

[ichkeria]

Not too many England managers depart after a 6-0 win.

[mikey4444]

FF....no, not me, but there have been calls from others. To be honest, I haven't been following this affair very closely....I just reported it as a point of information.

[mikey4444]

Itchy....very true....they normally have to wait until they have lost 3 consecutive games !

[Zacs-Master]

haaaaa. So why the 'at last' comment?

[mikey4444]

Because people have been calling for his dismissal for months.

[Zacs-Master]

But you agree he should go?

[mikey4444]

Zacs...I am content with whatever the Football Association has said and done. I am sure that he will be able to appeal against his sacking.

[Spicerack]

He's been cleared by 2 independent inquiries. Now the FA? are having a third bite of the cherry.
More trial by special interest internet groups.

[fiction-factory]

The reason given is a previous safeguarding issue from several years ago has come to light- it is said to be unrelated to the racism allegation case of which he's been cleared. But oddly they say there is no safeguarding concerns that would stop him taking up another coaching role. Seems very odd to me

Something doesn't quite scan for me there.

If its not about racism, I wonder what it could be, with about 25 fit, young female footballers to control on tour? ;-)

That's a Beep Beep See link. I don't believe them without independant verification.

Mikey, what do the Football Association know about football, just look at their record with past managers etc, its nearly as bad as FIFA?

[mikey4444]

Togo...he didn't jump.....he was pushed.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Another victory for the witch hunters to celebrate. Not as big a scalp as Sir Tim Hunt's, though.

Wonder if the claque which follows the fake news will get their way with the next object of malice, Suu Kyi.

[mikey4444]

VE....what on earth has the sacking of Sampson got to do with the ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya ?
