Saint Canary 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan has sacked highly rated manager Iain Dowie. Jordan has finally lost patience with Dowie for continually playing the Premier Leagues most exciting young right-winger Andrew Johnson as a striker.Jordan said "Only an idiot would continue to play a man who has scored 15 goals this season up front. The boy is is obviously the natural replacement for David Beckham in the England team and I just cannot understand how Iain could not see it"Dowie admitted his error "It was a mistake to play Andy up front" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
