    That is a total 100% fact
    Houghton could have been in the stand for many reasons and had they sacked Bielsa there would have been uproar amongst the fans - doesn’t add up that they would have pulled the plug there and then

    Nothing to do with the fans one bit,
    It was to do with squeaky bum time and panicking as the club could not go through the thought of not going up due to over spending, wage increases and FFP, which would have come in to force if promotion was not achieved, carnage was the word branded around....

    Heard the rumour from a few people but no one seems to have a credible source from where it came

    A long time close friend of mine who everyone will know, worked closely with the club over the years and Sky TV has set up his own media company,
    He was ready in waiting to break the story
    Luckily the performance held the Gun off

    I'm sure you remember Alex Ferguson was about to be shown the door until Robin's headed home the equaliser and his job was saved.

    I have heard from others who equally have connections to the club that it was BS. No comparison to the Ferguson v forest as that had been circulating in the media for weeks and he had been there for years without delivering and they were no where in the league.

    Would be interested in Mrs O’s take on it .

    So your saying in one part you have heard it but not from a credible source.
    And then you have heard it from connections to the club and it was BS...

    Oul Rudolph nose dodged the bull that time all right.
    Let’s hope history repeats itself but this time in WHITE.

    Saying heard rumours but no one could ever substantiate also heard from others would trust more it was rubbish - I am sceptical they would have fired him so quickly and there is no comparison with what happened at Man U were Ferguson had been there for years and spent lots.

    Just goes to show what standing by quality managers does for a team I guess
