O/T: Norwich shoot Gunn...

Post by real_darlo_85 » Fri Aug 14, 2009 4:04 pm

...Bryan Gunn sacked by Norwich after just 7 months in charge and 2 games into season!! Smacks of a weak board crumbling under supporter pressure in my opinion. :crazy:

That's how winning is done!"

Insane. That's their entire pre-season gone to pot then. Sometimes I wonder about the mental calibre of people who run football clubs.

Did he s*** in the chairman's cornflakes?

I hope he did, that would make a great story (and a slightly less great youtube video).

Blimey. Alright I know they got humiliated on the opening day but even so, after one league game? Ridiculous.

Football has gone fucking mad! Yes they were battered on the opening day, but Gunn actually recovered by engineering a convincing 4-0 win at Yeovil in the cup! Its utter bollocks that.

I can't help but feel the norwich board have shot themselves in the foot with this decision. Even if they were cannon fodder last week its far too early in the season to sack him.

True, but something unknown must have happened to trigger such a decision.
