I feel sorry for him. :cry: Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: DMR on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:12:02 :shock:
Didn't hang around did they. Got to say Oevil it's not really a shocker though, I'd say it was inevitable. Whose going to get the job I wonder? Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Luci on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:12:43 Grant is sacked = courtesy of yours truly John Terry :mrgreen:
On a serious note though its absolutely ridiculous. I kind of feel sorry for Grant too as I seriously dislike Abrahmovich. God help whoever gets that job next. Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: JPC82 on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:12:45 Manchini, Rijkaard or Hiddink after the euros
Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: yeo on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:13:23 I was being sarcastic,is there a sarcasm smiley? we need one.
Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Luci on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:16:02 I do actually have a little part of me that does feel sorry for him. Hes big, ugly, got manhandled by Stevie G and is now without a job. :D

Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: yeo on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:19:27 Sorry I ment i was being sarcastic about it being a shocker.I do feel sorry for him.I should quote it'd be much less confusing :mrgreen:
Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 17:49:17 I'm sure the five million pounds will soften the blow. He didn't really do a great job, if they sacked Mourinho after winning stuff every year then they have to sack him for winning nothing. Sacking Mourinho has proven to be pretty stupid though.

Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: dell boy on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:04:27 What more could the guy do?
Looked a certain third place when he took over in the Prem, Champions League final beaten on pens .... no other Chelski manager has come so close. OK no personality so what, stupid decision. Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Fred Elliot on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:06:56 Not unexpected, but fucking stupid none the less !!!!
Just makes me hate that Russian cunt even more Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:09:10 It was always going to happen tbh :-))(
Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: BANGKOK RED on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:26:19 Anelka:
Quote As Avram Grant awaits his fate at Chelsea, striker Nicolas Anelka put pressure on the manager with a scathing attack on the Israeli for leaving the player on the bench for most the Wednesday's Champions League final and then bringing him on without chance of warming up. Quote "At no point did I think I was going to come on," said Anelka. "I was on the bench for 110 minutes and suddenly I am asked to play, not even a minute after I was sent out to warm up. OK, so let me get this right: Anelka was ON THE BENCH for the match, but did not expect to be brought on!!!! Now I have been to many a match and it is common to see the subs warming up, even in the first half, just incase. It's just Anelka making excuses, or worse he was not prepared down to his own arrogance/un-professionalism. "Suddenly" asked to play................. BULLSHIT! Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:33:13 Quote from: "dell boy" What more could the guy do? Looked a certain third place when he took over in the Prem, Win the premiership, champions league, fa cup or even the carling cup perhaps? Certain third place after one month of the season???? I think if he'd have stayed they would have won the league almost certainly, they threw it away by losing to Arsenal and Man United under Grant and not winning a couple of crucial games at the end of the season.

I think if he'd have stayed they would have won the league almost certainly, they threw it away by losing to Arsenal and Man United under Grant and not winning a couple of crucial games at the end of the season. It sounds so easy when you put it that way ... No pressure on the next manager then? Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: axs on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:38:41 anyone who takes the job knows what they are in for - win or get sacked, and a huge payoff to boot.
Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: BANGKOK RED on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 18:49:03 Despite Manure winning the Title, who have been the best European team this season? And who have Chelsea beaten in Europe under Grant?
Honest question cos' I don't know the answer myself, but maybe Chelski had a tougher ride to the final than manure did. Either way, for any manager to inherit somebody elses squad and guide them to runners up in the Prem (By 2 points), and being runners up in the Euro Finals, losing only on penalties must surely be an absolutely awful manager.

I hate Rijkaard, such a fucking prick Don't disagree with you but as stated I'd be suprised if it isn't. Hiddink would be a dull but probably good appointment.

Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: janaage on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 22:39:58 Quote from: "Dachauer" Quote from: "Rich Pullen" If it's not Rijkaard I'll be suprised. I hate Rijkaard, such a fucking prick Why do you hate rijkaard, because of the Rudi Voller thing or something else? Actually thinking about it it must be the Voller thing as Rijkaard has done nothing else in his career to make enemies of people. And in fact he probably made more friends than enemies after the Holland Germany clash all those years ago. Having said that I don't rate FR as a manager that much and as I hope Chelsea continue to flatter to deceive I hope they do appoint frank as manager and carry on not winning trophies next season.

It sounds so easy when you put it that way ... No pressure on the next manager then? Of course it's not easy but Axs sums it up in the post below yours. Win or get sacked. I'm not saying they should have sacked Grant but they definitely shouldn't have sacked Mourinho and since they did they basically have to sack Grant. Title: Chelsea sack Grant Post by: Arriba on Sunday, May 25, 2008, 09:40:16 chelsea are a club i particularly dislike.
a club who despite all their money have to advertise on radio to flog match tickets. they could have won the champions league, and took the prem to the last day,but still the blokes had the boot.
