    Alex Neil Sacked By Norwich City

    I'm surprised he's lasted this long to be fair. I'm all for a manager given a chance to try and get a side promoted back up at the first attempt, but Norwich have looked way off for a while. They are currently nine points off the play-offs and making them will be a tall order.

    I think Naarich have been very unfair on him '71.
    Alex was a young player with us back in the early 00's, and I thought hed done really well at first when he got the job there.
    But they are a club with idiotic expectations and they are going to miss out on the play offs this time, but I dont think thats a fair reason to sack him. Give him a full season at this level at least, before taking any action. Its not as though they had to go up this season is it, they are a club who will challenge again next season at this level.

    I think with plenty of points to play for, they still have an outside chance of reaching the play-offs. Unless they stick with Alan Irvine, a new man will have to get to know the players pretty quickly.

    What's the odds of Bilic being the next prem manager to go. If The Hammers don't turn it around big time against Leicester second half I think there is every chance.

    I think he's safe til summer. Then the axe will fall.

    They're not in danger of relegation and they're too far away from competing for continental play, so nothin to gain from letting him go right now IMO.

    Well they might yet surprise us '71, and with another easy guaranteed home win against us today (we havent won away at Naarich in 80 years now lol), they have closed the gap and are now chasing a play off place again.
    And although we have 51 points, Im still looking over our shoulders at the 3rd from bottom team with 8 games to go!
