Sacked. Ha ha
Please god let it be Steve Bruce next!
Rumour has it Fat Frank’s in a taxi bound for Small Heath as we speak.
I don't think he has ever been a particularly good manager. He had win percentages of 28.2 (Derby) and 26.4 (DC United) before turning up at the blue nosed gits and only winning 2 in 15i don’t think he’s a bad manager, but should never have got the job in those circumstances. Owners can be really stupid
Derby was a basket case, so unfair to judge on that imo.I don't think he has ever been a particularly good manager. He had win percentages of 28.2 (Derby) and 26.4 (DC United) before turning up at the blue nosed gits and only winning 2 in 15

This. Not many good players are good managersIt's amazing how many good players tend to be pretty rubbish managers. Gerrard, Lampard and Rooney are the case in point.
So far there’s very little evidence to say he’s anything but that though.i don’t think he’s a bad manager, but should never have got the job in those circumstances. Owners can be really stupid
Not too many Brian Clough's around.It's amazing how many good players tend to be pretty rubbish managers. Gerrard, Lampard and Rooney are the case in point.

Villa fan here. Feel for Blues fans, remarkable that the hierarchy has made the same mistake twice after messing up with Zola in 2016. On the other hand, it's also very funny.

I suspect Eustace to want a bigger wage if that were to happen, and rightly so.If the owners had any sense they’d go cap in hand back to John Eustace on the lines of “you were great, we got it wrong and please come back.”
Doubt they’ll have the sense or humility to do so and Lampard looks like a perfect fit for yet another crack at management.
I found their statement arrogant in all honesty, they could have made a much better fist at showing some humility.If the owners had any sense they’d go cap in hand back to John Eustace on the lines of “you were great, we got it wrong and please come back.”

We seem to have got one in GON though.This. Not many good players are good managers
Gary rowett in the frame for the job. Hasn’t he been there before?
Yes I am surprised at the decision of Blues owners to appoint Rooney as Tommy Shelby always seemed far more switched on than that............... Oh hang on I have the wrong Small Heath based Shelby Corporation !
Not an outstanding player was he?We seem to have got one in GON though.
Yep. He was sacked when doing well also.Gary rowett in the frame for the job. Hasn’t he been there before?
He played at the top level, though and was an honest, hard working midfield player.Not an outstanding player was he?
