Excellent manager or coach whatever he is called. On paper a terrible team but he's got them playing to their strengths.

Getting him and Huddersfield getting CC were inspired but risky appointments when they made them.

It is nothing we ever have the bravery or knowledge to do, and we wait until CC has proven himself before getting him.

Hopefully, the new ownership will be knowledgeable and we can avoid the perennial turds like Pardew and Bruce.

Birmingham getting relegated due to self sabotage for know it all owners is quite funny. They have had too many good results over us the last few years so I’m happy enough having just the Cov Derby next season if we fail to get out of the playoffs.

John Eustace might be feeling validated keeping Blackburn up and Blues going down.

Feeling validated? What with him being a Villa supporter I imagine he felt pretty horny about the whole thing to be honest. Bet he couldn't wait to get the top off that bottle of baby oil he (probably) took with him........ just in case  ;D .

It doesn't matter how many resources you have.
If you don't know how to use them, they will never be enough.

Hull might rue sacking Rosenior yes they spent money (add them to the list of teams that have and achieved the square route of not very much) but giving a head coach half a new team in January and expecting instant results is a little optimistic. To be honest I am happy to see a monied club turning that money into a bonfire of stupidity.

Plain dumb sacking Roseniour in my opinion, He will be snapped up by someone.

Ranks alongside the Rooney appointment as dumbest move of the season
the road to the summit has dips, keep the faith when navigating those dips !!

Shocking decision to give the boot to LR.

Rumour is Mogga may not be going back to Blues.

I hope they don't have the foresight to appoint LR.

Really surprised by the sacking of Rosenior.
Was only saying to a City fan today that provided they keep most of the squad and the manager they'd be in with a shout of play offs next season.
Really stupid decision on the face of it.

I don't necessarily agree with it but they spent big and gambled under him and it failed.

Leeds Norwich 3-0 and only half time. Leeds look unstoppable, winning all the individual duels and Norwich forwards not getting a sniff. Leeds fans may as well start booking their Wembley tickets.

This game is a warning - if we didn't need one already - to stand up and be counted those first 10/15 minutes tomorrow.

4-0 Leeds. Norwich getting destroyed. The Leeds crowd maying a lot of noise, whereas Norwich don't seem to have any fans there.

Leeds have been very good tonight while Norwich just haven’t stood up at all. I’ll be so disappointed if Albion do this tomorrow.

The early goal destroyed whatever game plan Norwich seemed to have and after that it was pretty dire. Leeds have won it without even getting out of 2nd gear.
