today got the sack from Leyton Orient. Shame, I was hoping that he could have made a success of his new position. Sadly his results were very poor, and it is a results game.
Sorry double post..

Two year contract and so 18months redundancy pay which is not bad is it....Try getting that in any other job with so short a tenure? It was making my earlier point that 3 month rolling contracts are much better for lower level clubs..
I'm sorry for him but I would guess that failing twice now and especially in non league, he will find it very difficult to get another managers job soon....Maybe there are clubs around though like Nantwich Town that would be willing to take him and he may get a reasonable salary of what is likely at NT? 600 quid a week? More? Less?
Also making the point as here that any manager can only succeed if they have decent players to start with and in some ways the fact that we are still struggling in a league lower makes the same point? I would suspect any Board worthy of the name would not see that the model is not doing what it should and revise it accordingly...meanwhile deafening silence from them as usual? They are very poor communicators aren't they?
BTW somebody mentioned Dario and Bakes? Is Dario attending home matches in his usual seat?
Look at all the x league teams struggling in non league we need to be careful
Had hoped SD would make a success of the Orient job and gain promotion within a couple of seasons. Tough job to take on but it is a results game - are you watching DA/KL?
Looks as if the Conference is a tough division to be successful in. Not sure we would do well with the inevitable crop of youngsters and I do wonder what would happen to the ground and Rease Heath should we be relegated.
to answer the question is DG still attending home games and sitting in his usual seat the answer is no . He has not been to any home games since his suspension by the FA. I am in that area at half time for every home game and used to speak to him
