Let me first say: thank feck he's gone.
Next: the question has to be asked: why the hell wasn't he sacked earlier? And by earlier I mean last season.
Letting him go after the FA Cup final would have been perfect for all parties. And this was hardly an outlandish idea at the time. Many of us were in favour of it - a decent exit for yet another "manager" who didn't quite work out...on a high note, at that.
Would have made perfect sense - new owners, new plan, new "structure" - and so forth.
Why the feck was he kept on?
And when it became obvious - to my blind granny's blind dog - that he would never turn anything around in a millions years...that would have been in late August, I guess, around there...why the feck didn't they give it to Ruud (or whoever) then? Did they not see what my blind granny's blind dog saw?
This is a good day in the sense that ETH is - finally - gone. That feels good to many of us. But it's not a grand day, it's not - by any stretch of the imagination - a new dawn. We are run by people who decided to let ETH make an utter fool of himself before - finally - sacking him. Mock Ezza ten Hazza all you want (I don't like him), but please keep focusing on the real problem.
