Daniel Farke Sacked

[grumpy01]

What sort of decision is this?Norwich get their first win of the season and then a few hours after sack the manager.If they had sacked him after the run of defeats I could have understood it but now after a win.Hopefully they,as directors,get what they deserve.

An interesting radio interview with Neil Warnock here - he claims he knows who his successor is. And he told the players about his departure a few minutes before they went out to play apparently.

It's quite a calm interview from him in spite of one or two barbs ;-)

Norwich seem to have a confusing number of job titles for their staff.

Farke was officially their 'head coach', rather than their 'manager'. The assistant head coach was Eddie Riemer (also now dismissed). Neither of them was to be confused with their first team coach, Christopher John (who's also leaving) or their head of performance, Chris Domogalla (who's yet another one who's got the chop). Until a new head coach (or manager, or whatever) is appointed, their head of football development, Steve Weaver, will be taking charge.

Too many chiefs and not enough Indians, perhaps?

Dean Smith's gone now

[bobbinwales]

Gary Lineker found it funny last night and was able to dig out his "Daniel Farks' off" line to end his show

[Canary42]

Rumour has it that Norwich have appointed Dean Smith and Aston Villa have appointed Daniel Farke.

[tonyav]

LOL, he can Farke off.

[Hopkirk]

Canary wasn't far off at 21.38.

It looks like Dean Smith is being lined up for Norwich.

[tonyav]

Yeah, I saw something about that earlier, best of luck to Deano.

[Hopkirk]

Instant relegation added to his CV

[tonyav]

Deano is in New York right now, he will fly back and sign the contract if and when his reps have sorted it.

[tonyav]

Norwich had better have some dosh ready for the Jan transfer window.

[Hopkirk]

Has he any hope of rescuing them?

[tonyav]

He is a good manager and with the right signing's and a fair wind then yes there is a good chance that he is the man to keep them up.

[Peter Pedant]

It's a bit late. They're doomed.
Doomed I say, doomed.

can I make naughty joke - even by AB standards which can hardly be high-falutin? - - I bet all the dis-satisfied fans shouted - - O Farke!

ho ho ho

[Peter Pedant]

damn tonyav has already done it

[tonyav]

It needed to be said though, PP ;-)

[Hopkirk]

Filth

[tonyav]

LOL.

[Peter Pedant]

absolute filth - I am amazed it has lasted 5 m on AB

[tonyav]

LOL, that's only because you said it as well ^^^^^
