Shakey Sacked

Gary Lineker has well and truly hit the nail on the head!!

I was worried after the Bournemouth game, last game of last season. We showed no quality of the back of a 6-1 defeat to Spurs in the previous home game. Good bloke, but at the end of the day, he's a coach, not a manager. My money is on Big Sam.

It's a shame that someone who has been such a servant for the club has been so badly let down by the administrators of the club. 

 

Thanks for all your hard work and help in bringing such a huge historical moment to our club.  

 

Shakespeare played the same team every week, made wrong subs, played a shit style of play, persisted with 442 etc etc not the administrators.

 

He was not good enough. We were dominated by all of our opposition apart from Brighton - we were very lucky not to lose at Huddersfield and Bournemouth.

For those wondering, he said he doesn't necessarily mean the owners themselves, but the higher-ups in the club (hinting at Rudkin and the like, possibly).

spoke to rudders last night before the game - his comments indicated that they were struggling to understand why the players were doing it against the big teams but not the others.............

Doing what losing? because that's what we were doing against all the big teams? if he couldn't understand that then that is the reason he's been sacked.

Let’s look on the positives now the team will have to play now to save their places as if it is Big Sam taking over he won’t be taking any shit !

More pathetic apologist stuff you mean. Big of you to give him " a couple of more games " talk about delusions of grandeur "

If you are going to post at least have the good grace to not post in riddles.

Hope he got a nice pay out, he's definitely deserved it. Thanks for everything, onwards and upwards now hopefully!

The only bad decision our owners have made is appointing Shakespeare!

No chance! He's just signed a new contract with the FAI before the last match against Wales.

Qualifying for the World cup or not, he'll lead Ireland into the Euros

[Leamington Fox]

Lovely guy, but showed no evidence of being up to the job this season.  I think the length of time they took to appoint him indicated that they were very unsure.  I suspect they were looking at alternatives but he was the "least worst" option in the end.

 

Please, God, let us have a good, long-term appointment now!

I bloody hope so

Feel really bad for Shakey but this should have happened in the Summer. I know it might have been a bit harsh on him given how we played we he took over but I think you could tell towards the back end of the season that it was wearing off and it was more of the classic ‘new manager boost’ instead of tactical genius on Shakeys behalf,

 

Wish him all the best in the future but it is the best for club, we have a squad good enough for a comfortable top half finish, let’s hope the new manager can get us playing like one

That's not all it is though. He can definitely feel hard done by, but at the end of the day we've looked abject since pre-season. He earned the right to get the job, but he had to back it up with a good start. We are in the bottom 3 and put another bad one in last night. This despite having a big outlay on new talent in the summer.

 

I too thank him, he is always welcome at LCFC but this seems like another case of the owners making the right call. Going down with our current squad can only be called "under-performing."

Sorry, that flew over your head? good grief it was plain enough. 

[Ian Nacho]

I was thinking last night, during the game, why on earth have we got a League One manager as the assistant and a Premier League assistant as the manager. Massive cock up appointing him in the first place.

[Brooksy]

Bet we've got no-one lined up

[m4DD0gg]

Seems stupid timing as well given the two week break and a game on saturday.

 

Appleton as caretaker makes me want to soil my knickers............actually saying that he will probably win 3 on the bounce and get given the job permo and 50m budget in january.

No makes zero sense in context of my post actually. Seemingly you don't know the difference between showing someone respect and thinking they are doing a good job.

[ultrafox]

I think Shakey was putting on a brave face recently and he's probably relieved it's all over for him.
