Thorn likely to be sacked today (1 Viewer)

[DiveDiveWhereverYouMayBe]

So I am told. Can't see SISU splashing the cash on a replacement, his hands were tied, thought he still had the players' support. I don't doubt that there are better managers out there & a new one might give some fresh impetus, but a shame all things considered. If I am wrong, apologies. This is what I have heard, not certain of validity & would take no pride in winding up fellow Cov fans.

Heard the same today. All rumour I guess. Friend of a friend etc. Was about to post it myself till this popped up!!! Echo all the sentiments u said.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The validity should be pretty clear come the end of today in that case.

 

[CUS Wyken]

It'll be tomorrow... Everything involving CCFC happens on a Thursday

 

[hughescov]

Thursdays banter a day early.

 

[ccfcway]

how do you know, are SISU bringing someone in to help with the sacking ?

 

[ccfcway]

Mark Robins has been waiting for this job for months now

 

[ashbyjan]

Maybe SISU are rewarding Sillett for opposing the protests...........

 

[covcity4life]

grayson has just been sacked by leeds im hearing.........maybe you got your wires crossed?

 

[Gray]

But will he want to take it once the season finishes?

I doubt it.

Trust you to have to always go one further!!! Before yesterday, id have thought chaining yourself to a goalpost would be enough to shock people, but now................ (ps what was that guy thinking??)

I aint Ghey nuy this would be funny as! I kinda hope Thorn gets sacked now, just so I know that we are going to be entertained on Saturday.

agree thorn has to go now but if we are in such a state we had to wait until o donovan left to bring in a man utd reserve kid then where would the money come from to bring in a new man and backroom staff, unless carsley took the reigns, but he is as inexperienced as thorn was. whatever happens i feel a change is needed even just to try and give everyone some kind of lift

 

[DiveDiveWhereverYouMayBe]

I was not stating Thorn should go now. I was just passing on what I heard; that Thorn was called to a meeting today & the feeling was that he'd be sacked. I have long argued that SISU would not finance such a move, so would have responded to such a thread with scepticism (if not quite as much on-pitch nakedness). As I say, apologies if I am wrong, not on the wind up.

 

[mememe]

he has to be sacked on the basis he just isnt experienced enough, the glaring issue stood out last night, as soon as phillips came on it should have 5 at the back and timewasting for 5 minutes... a sunday league manager knows this. the fact is we need an old head to manage our team at least until the end of the season, teach them how to stay calm and see a game out!! what is it with the last 10 minutes in our games?? thousands of pounds a week and in all honestly they prove they are not fit enough to keep up the pace they set for 80 minutes. it is really embarrassing

 

[Sbarcher]

Gray - can you please confirm your gender before I buy a ticket for Saturday.......

 

[Gray]

Ha I'm a 6ft blonde bombshell that's all you need to know

 

[Gray]

On a serious note though if someone gets sacked for being 3 points off the playoffs then its a no brainer really

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

Ha I'm a 6ft blonde bombshell that's all you need to know

Are you swedish?

 

[ccfcway]

when asked if Grayson wanted the job at the Ricoh, he said "shut that door"

 

[lordsummerisle]

Andy Thorns hands have apparently been tied more than a High court Judge's in a "House of Correction".

 

[EleanorRigby]

If i thought a new manager would create the new boss syndrome and win us a few games i would go with giving AT the boot but i don't. Might aswell go with Thorne until our fate is known and decide where we go from there, you never know we might have new owners with squillions to spend on getting out of divsion 3

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

It wont be long before he goes...............

 

[wingy]

It wont be long before he goes...............

To the Loo???!!!

went down well didnt it

 

[Skyblue4u]

Thorn Sacked!!!

 

[DiveDiveWhereverYouMayBe]

Cancel that rumour. Not in the habit of spreading gossip, wires crossed. Thorn was not sacked today, despite meeting with SISU.

 

[Glen]

Well he is still here and will be as SISU are not arsed with this club at all the twats

 

[DiveDiveWhereverYouMayBe]

I cannot stress the importance of getting SISU out of Coventry City enough.

 

[joemercersaces]

I see Warnock is linked with Leeds, what a match!

One of the most obnoxious managers in football with easily the most obnoxious club, chairman and set of fans.

In fact I'm not sure Warnock is obnoxious enough for them. Grayson always came across as being just like the rest of them, dour and morose, blinkered and belligerent.
