MikeO Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 Birmingham sack their manager in October, when sixth in the Championship, to appoint Wayne Rooney. Fifteen games later he's taken them to twentieth in the table, so gets sacked. Hiring "trophy" manager backfires again Shame for Wayne, but he doesn't appear to have what it takes.

After how well he did with Derby under very trying circumstances I thought he'd go on to do well in management. He may still do but the move to Birmingham was wrong for everyone and just didn't make any sense really. MikeO and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 The owners thought they could make big money by appointing a legendary name as manager, believing that would be a draw. Results are far more important, and they must currently be ruing their stupidity. Meanwhile, Wayne walks away with millions in his pocket, so I don't have too much sympathy.

MikeO Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 JPR Williams gone today too, an absolute monster of a rugby player as well as being a surgeon. Loved watching him as a kid, despite him being Welsh.
