bristol_canary 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Ok, i often post a lot of tosh on here, but its mainly just for fun or taking the michale out of other members on here.I have just arrived back in Norfolk to spend the bank holiday here. I have just been speaking to a friend who has strong connections at the club and the first thing they said to me was...did you hear why Gunn got sacked??They they went on to tell me that there was a huge bust up in the dressing room between a player and gunn after the colchester game, the player complaining about the keeper and apparently Gunn stepped in and got physical with a player. Not sure if anyone else has heard this story too. I bet gunn can pack a fairly good punch though.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuff Said 5,089 Posted August 27, 2009 I don''t know, this one sounds more plausible to me - also from a "decent" source [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canaryken 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Sorry, don''t believe this one either - surely he would have been sacked on the spot or after the match in this case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james norwich 0 Posted August 27, 2009 No, no, no. Gunn went for two reasons;1. He & Crook had a barny at half time of the Colchester game when Crook wanted a triple substitution - including the keeper. Gunn & Butterbrain said no. Crook chellenged Gunn to ''put his coaching badges on the table'' (of which there are none) and the two of them argued big time.2. The two fans who threw their season tickets in Gunn''s direction were viewed by the Board as acting out what 20,000+ were feeling - the Board then met on the Sunday before the cup win and decided to dispose of Gunn.

Metatron 0 Posted August 27, 2009 "the Board then met on the Sunday before the cup win and decided to dispose of Gunn."I thought it was well-established that the Board didn''t meet until Thursday.Are you saying they met on sunday and then met again on Thursday?In any case, he''s gone and we have a new manager.Let''s just move on!;o) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Empty Mirror 0 Posted August 27, 2009 The reason for poor Gunny''s dismissal was a mix of seven months of poor results, one atrocious one, the fact that he was appointed without the approval of much of the current board (and, indeed, much of the previous board) and a shift in the balance of power on the Board. There was a "trigger" event, but it was not what was suggested on this thread. And at the end of the day, it was just a trigger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
