Fez of Mahrez Posted 13 August 2007 Posted 13 August 2007 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ted/6944015.stm Carlisle United have sacked manager Neil McDonald after just one match of the new League One season. McDonald had taken over at Brunton Park in June 2006 following Paul Simpson's move to Preston, and led the Cumbrians to eighth place last season. The shock move was revealed in a statement on the club's website. "The board of Carlisle United regret to say that they have lost confidence in Neil McDonald and are terminating his contract forthwith," it read. "They thank him for his hard work at the club and wish him all the best for his future career. Greg Abbott has been appointed as caretaker manager." The dismissal comes just two days after the Cumbrians began the new season with a 1-1 draw at Walsall - having broken their transfer record to sign Blackburn striker Joe Garner for £140,000 on Friday.

Daggers Posted 13 August 2007 Posted 13 August 2007 I am amazed that there aren't any Allen Out! polls here - I guess they've been deleted before I came on.

Tevez Posted 13 August 2007 Posted 13 August 2007 Me, Oriental and Turkish was talking to a Carlisle fan on the way to Barnsley last season, he said the team set up isnt very good nor is the chairman.
Daggers Posted 13 August 2007 Posted 13 August 2007 "The termination of the contract is not a knee-jerk reaction, and is not part of any disciplinary action," Then it is a decision of rank stupidity based on the timing
