Honestly. He was gone before today. Its been aluded to several times by Spinks as well. Putting 2 and 2 together from what I was told. He was informed he was sacked, but he needed to prepare the team for Coventry. In the meantime, the club worked on the replacement. I can only guess what else was said, perhaps "do this, do that and you'll get your payout". His press conference was total bollocks, Stevie Wonder could see that! He even said "if the club are looking for another manager then it'd be disappointing". Or something to the effect. That sentence just nailed it on the head for me. the way he was sat down today with jack screaming at the bench and the coaches coming out to sort it showed he wasnt arsed about it today.

Yes thanks Mark now fuck off and never come near Stoke City again and take the Welsh sheep with you. no need for that, had some great matches with him as well. Correct, let's not rewrite history, the last twelve months have been pretty shit, but we had some real time, and the to Manchester games when Stokalona really existed will love long in the memory.

He was told we wanted Rodgers. But since he's been told it's Derbys manager we want. Rodgers would be available provided celtic are paid off and he is given a budget. Rodgers would have pulling power for players, and he will have a ready list of targets. I hope we try for him. I think we could get him mid season but it will cost We should be busting the walls to get Brendan Rogers. Show your intent stoke

So you're saying Mark knew he was sacked before the Coventry game? Lots of people around the club knew, so he would be stupid if he didn't know. doesn't answer my question..

He has gone along way to wrecking the club in the last two years so in my opinion there is every need for what I posted, how many great matches have we had in the last two seasons ?

It should have happened weeks ago, but at least we've done it now and not put it off for another month.
We've six months and a transfer window to save ourselves. We've got a good set of players who are good enough, we just need a bloke in charge who is up to the task and a few more additions.
Go'arn Stoke.

This talk about Rodgers is utter fantasy. Glasgow Stokie has to lay off the Buckfast.
The Stoke job is a desperation gig. We are in the relegation zone; we have a lot of dodgy players, a lot; a lousy reputation as a place and a team; a very poor history in terms of achievement; and we shan't be offering the new guy silly (i.e. good Premier League) wages.
Pearson Ranieri (blood donors queue up over there)
We'll only stay up with a very very strong defence and a tough,barely honest, cynic in charge

So happy, genuinely feel excited now even given where we are in the league. Some big games coming up, think we'll be better with that negative stigma of him out the way and the fans concentrating on the lads on the pitch rather than calling for the managers head.

He'd surely be interested in doubling his wage and managing a Premier League club and be given a war chest to makesure we stay up? Surely?

< New avatar needed then.
I 100% believe he would have been here 'til May had he / the players / whoever else not made Newcastle a shit or bust and lost today, and only then he would have had his dossier on the way forward politely rejected and shown the door.
Rightly or wrongly, I think PC had the confidence that MLH could pull pull it out of the nose dive but those two games have nailed that one.
He was going anyway, he had to - there has been just too much that's gone completely tits up.
Sad it came to this and I am also 100% sure that it isn't not all his fault and that Carto and Scholes should be very, very worried going forward.
Obviously Peter and Jon need to make a whizzbang appointment to lift some spirits and get us out of the brown stuff and then undertake an inquest on what went wrong and that takes absolutely no prisoners when the truth is out.
Small problem being that I am not remotely confident that there is anyone out there that we could realistically get that meets that criterion though.
I genuinely wish you luck Sir Pete and pray the cards drop.

I bloody hope so but I'm not so confident! The way Nixon just spoke on P&G indicated Rodgers Who was the original one that was mentioned to me. Fuck knoww, perhaps Rodgers is the number 1 but it's going to take alot to get him through the door.

The manager we appoint and the players we bring in this window will make a massive statement about whether our model is self-sufficiency or ambition/progression. I fear that it may be self-sufficiency but I can only hope all my fears are wrong.

Nobody should be pleased at this event,at least no true Stoke supporter,as it signifies how far we have gone backwards. We can only hope the right decisions are now made because there is no guarantee of anyone being able to change this around due to the fact that the squad is clearly unbalanced and lacking quality. This transfer window is do or die whoever comes in.
