Maurice Ross Sacked

Scarily true! Steps 1-6 have been mostly completed, and although I don't think step 7 is close yet, the seeds have certainly been planted. We must have done something really, really bad in a past life to be made into Notts County fans.

We're at step 6.5, fans divide over the sacking of the manager.

I think you can buy a cream for that, UTM.

Very good. I like that!

Over the many years I have followed Notts, like so many other posters on here, I have grasped at so many false dawns, only to be bitterly disappointed afterwards. I was shocked to read the news and can only imagine there must have been a catastrophic breakdown between the management and the players.
Question for you all. Are Notts County F C unmanageable, both at team and board level?

Over the last decade, it would be very difficult to give 'no' as an answer.

Allegedly a training ground bust up 🤷*♂️

Training ground bust ups happen all the time, so unless he's chinned someone then it would seem they're taking the first opportunity to get rid of him....

Les Bradd on Magpie Circle saying he was very surprised because he watched them train last week and the players seemed to be very much behind the coach and manager. "Gobsmacked... very difficult for Ian to carry-on on his own".

Mace "My understanding is the decision to remove Ross is completely independent of Ian Burchnall.... nothing to do with Ian".

Maybe a better no.2 has just become available and they've had to make their move now.

Maybe the Bros want to bring someone with experience in as a D.O.F or similar and Mo wasn't up for it?
