Captain Controversy 0 Posted February 18, 2009 It''s only taken 6 games, but already people are actually umming and arring about whether sacking Roeder was right. Of course it wasnt. The board were hoping for season ticket sales, a ''honeymoon period'' and it hasnt come. Now we have a manager with NO experience, when we need it most. Roeder saved us last year - from a much worse position. If only they didnt sack him, or had the balls to grovel and get him back...Im so dissapointed with this season, and Roeder getting sacked topped it off at the time - but now we''re in the bottom 3, with everyone else having games in hand over us. Yes, the season doesnt end in february, but theyre gonna have to pull off something VERY special now to escape the clutches of the third tier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted February 18, 2009 We''d be at least 2 pts worse of with Roedernowhere who created a bad atmosphere with everyone connected to the club which was not good for trying to win games of football. This was after the massive cock up the bloke had made of doing his job before! Anyone who suggests that keeping Roedernowhere would of been the right thing to do are clearly in need of medication!

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted February 18, 2009 [quote user="Loan City Fc "]Roeder needed to go but we needed a football manager appointed not Mr Odd Job .[/quote] The reason the board plumped for the totally inadequate Roeder in the 1st place was cause he had experience at other clubs! Gunn and his backroom staff have more knowledge and experience than Roeder and have the must have managerial ability of creating a good atmosphere and commanding respect, vital attributes Roeder sadly lacks!

Matt Morriss 69 Posted February 19, 2009 It was 100% the right decision to sack Roeder. If he stayed we were only heading one way, Roeder lost the dressing room, his time was up, it was completely untenable. Thats football it happens.At least by sacking him and appointing Gunn weve given ourselves a chance. Performances have been better and the players are playing for the manager. There was none of that at the end under Roeder so he had to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary02 III 0 Posted February 19, 2009 Totally agree. I''m hoping that the results can start living up to some of the recent performances before the players heads drop or the fairweather fans start to boo at Carrow Rd. Gunn''s done well so far for my money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
