    Have you been drinking? Formations that made less sense than the crap that comes out of Corbyns mouth - stupid selections - Bartley back in - best player of late on bench - stupid subs - trying to play football from the back but hey we are not Barcelona. What thick useless brainless knob would play the most lethal striker in this division on the wing?

    Glad to see him go and Jenkins has just gone up in my estimation - for having some bottle before even the play offs are missed.

    Worst manager and worst decisions for a long time in a poor division!!!

    Fact is, he should never have got the job. A complete novice at management was given the job of taking us back up at the first attempt. We had numerous choices but went with a man who won us a few games at the end of last season.
    He was found out fairly early, even though we were going well we were conceding too many goals, gifts from our players trying to do what the manager wanted but who were obviously up to it. Selections and formations got odder and odder, players out of position, players in who had no right to be in, it was a disaster.
    Barnes probably kept us up with his performances and kept DM in a job.
    I am very pleased he has gone. Hopefully we will rally now and earn a trip to Wembley.

    I hope the next incumbent underwhelms and drags out of the play off places. Sick to the bottom of my stomach. I really have little in me for wanting to follow this club. The only reason I hang in now is that one of my four grandsons is a Baggie, his two brothers are Leeds like their dad, so for his sake I remain a Baggie. A fourth grandson is a Bristol City follower, none of them have gone for the big Premier clubs to be fair, though the eldest is not in double figures yet, so things might change.

    Does seem a tad strange that we sack a coach who's currently on a 47.9% win ratio.having said that I think it was right to,we were going nowhere with Moore who wasn't the real hand on the tiller as regards boss and calling the shots for me with it all going downhill the moment Jones rocked up
    Remember the pep talk for extra time v Brighton cup replay, that for me laid bare who was yanking who's chain

    The bottom line is that this side has completely lost its way and its confidence. Unfortunately, the man in charge is the one who takes the blame and that is what has happened. The past two performances have been totally unacceptable and add that to our recent home form and the outcome was inevitable. Darren Moore is an honourable and thoroughly nice person and I hope that he remains at the club in some capacity, but much as I respect him, I feel the decision is the correct one.

    I support Albion first and foremost, not any player past or present. I love the club, i want to see it do well.
    If Darren Moore had no previous links with the club, everyone would have been aghast at giving the job to someone with no managerial experience at any level. I was aghast anyway, it was a terrible decision.
    Darren was equally to blame for accepting a job that was far too big for him.
    I could see this train wreck happening last summer. But hey, he was Darren Moore, real nice guy, who everyone loves. Totally inept at managing, never learns from his mistakes, couldn't pick his nose or run a bath, about as much use as a clergymans willy, but hey let's give him time because it's Big Dave.

    Whole hearted player who played just over 100 games for us in 5 years. How has he become a legend?
    He is, unless he has changed his allegiance, a Blues fan.

    100% agree Des! Ask Mick if he would keep a worker in employment just because he was nice but useless!!!

    This is a shame because I liked Daz Moore as a player when he was with us at Barnsley, he was a real professional.
    But how many times do the nice and popular players fit perfectly into management eh, it rarely seems to happen.
    From a neutrals view here, didnt he almost show signs of keeping you up last season, when he was given an absolutely impossible job in fairness. Ok maybe he should only have been a temp appointment after all.

    But remember lads, you are STILL in the play off places arent you and have still got a great chance of promotion.
    Yes if Im honest Im shocked at this sacking, and I think the majority of neutral fans are as well, it seems to be more than a bit harsh to be honest.
