Bit gutted to be honest. Hadn't joined the 'sack him' chorus though admittedly he was running close to the line, but I was still very fond of him, and all the shithouse digs about his teeth, the portrait, the 'renting off Gerrard so he can't drop him', etc. etc. just made me root for him more as it was nonsense,
But on the pitch, it just wasn't happening, for whatever reason or combination of reasons. And as the boss, he pays the price. Seems a little silly for the owners to have backed him so heavily in the summer and then done a U-turn in the last week or so, but that's what happens in business I guess.
I just hope whoever the new manager turns out to be is A) good and B) gets the full backing of the supporters, no doubt he will if he's seen as the right choice. the wrong choice? Doesn't bear thinking about, and could be worse than keeping Brendan would have been.
Good luck to the Brodge, he gave us some orgasmic moments in 2013/4, I wish he had got us that league title. All the best BR, you're welcome round mine for a brew any time.
Onwards and hopefully upwards I guess.
