Why is he an idiot? He must be a wealthy man and if he isn't enjoying his job then it sensible to jack it in, surely? I'm sure you have had a few voluntary changes of job in your time, Dave.

I have no idea why he isn't enjoying it, Dave. You'll have to ask him if you want to know! ;D

why isn't he enjoying it ? did he wrongly assume it would be a cake walk As he's been in the job for 6 years, probably not. Steve Coppell is one of the most astute and experienced managers working in football. I'm sure he won't be short of offers. |

I'd quit if I saw my team play like a bunch of toothless overpaid meandering pufters put to the sword by Burnley.
They should have been taking that game to Burnley last night at home in front of their home fans, but as soon as Burnley scored their heads went down and they weren't up for the fight.
Saying that, their fans were wank aswell.

I think Mr Coppell must be confident that he is so good at his job that he can just pack it in and get another job just like that. I think we all know people like that  I think he's had enough. He's wealthy, he's heading to late 50s, and the job requires long hours. Reading will need to make changes to the playing staff soon and need to build a younger team. The Hunt's and Doyle's of the world will be asking for a transfer to the Premier andmaybe he can't be arsed with all the hassle of starting from scratch again, and who can blame him. |

never rated coppel that much anyway. cant understand his tactics and giving a young player a debut[church?] his debut in their biggest game of the season seems just stupid tho.esp when he left players like our kits, little and hunt on the bench in a game where they needed to score goals! wank
and as for the fans pathetic cant sell out for their biggest game of the season? they dont deserve it

Probably done all he can do with Reading - they need new blood both in the team and management - seems a logical thing to do to me. Personally I think he's always been very dignified. SuperTone should sign him up a la Gerry Francis / megson et al. |

I don't think we will see Reading in the top flight again for a very long time. Their side will disperse- the likes of Doyle, Hunt and Harper will be snapped up, and they will have great trouble in finding a manager of Coppell's calibre.

It was the same case as curbishly at charlton he just thinks he has nothing more to offer the club or the team. Shame really cus I've always rated him as a good manager and comes across a decent bloke in his Interviews.

Built up a cracking side after 5 years in charge, and all of a sudden they dont go up he jumps ship. |

Good question, where does this leave Gingerbollocks? Will he be here for Satdee?
Reading are fucked now, and frankly i couldn't give a shit. Kitson talks the shithole up but they didn't sell their ground out, not even for a game of that magnitude.
I shoudl say without Coppell and the player exodus that is about to happen, you may see another Charlton, hopefully with copperbollocks as their player/manager/captain.
