The way I understand the events surrounding Warnock's sacking

[Ric-Roc]

Not happy with things.

It was widely discussed between many of the players that under Warnock it was the worst training they'd ever had. Players want to be pushed hard in training believe it or not & they were not.

Dave at the Norwich game even clint hill screaming at warnock on the bench to change it as he was being overrun

Warnock
Ignored him

W12, i don't think your far wrong with any of that, I lost a bit of respect for nw when he slated traore publicly, bang out of order in any profession let alone in front of millions of people on national tv and then he went and done the same thing with faurlin, In saying that I will always be grateful for all warnock done and the conditions that he had to work under. But over the last couple of months it was clear to see that there was something wrong behind the scenes. Warnock is now spouting that fernandes is not a football person, I felt fernandes acted proffesionaly correctly and swiftly in changing manager and that alone tells me he is.
Ps Barton keep your mouth shut and start doing your talking on the pitch!!

Tony Fernandes rang a lot of the players after the MK game.

The next day he was sacked. Make of that what you will.

How do you know that ?

[Ric-Roc]

Because I do.

[andover66]

? not sure you do.

Player power then Ric

I would actually say Chairman power, only before making the final decision he gathered as many facts / evidence, whatever you want to call it, from others so he knew in himself he was making the right decision.

W12 this ties in exactly with a fair few whispers I've heard mate.

[Del]

? not sure you do.

Give over mate.

Ric clearly has a top contact at the club hence more often than not getting info bang on and early. I assume it would be common knowledge among the players and said contact that TF made those calls....

[Ric-Roc]

? not sure you do.

Ok.

[BennyBoyRs]

W12, that's exactly as I had it, hence my defending of Barton.

[Del]

It all makes perfect sense to me. The dressing room had clearly been lost and you could see they didn't believe in NW's tactics or team selections, same as all of us really....

If he was swanning off to Cornwall and leaving our club trainig in the hands of a couple of hungover foolsm then good riddence. Not to mention, half our team have played for England so will know what good quality training should be like.

Fari play to JB.

[BennyBoyRs]

And I'll add (call it what you will), the first I'd heard this story was a month or two ago from Ric. Remember the post he told me to call him?! On my granddad's grave, that's a fact.

[andover66]

Any boss in their right mind would not consult their work force and ask questions to the determent of a manager. Every Tom **** and Harry claims to know a top source. My cousin worked in the offices at the club for many years during the 70s and 80s.I begged her for info all the time and got **** all. Im sure confidentially remains within the club. Ric you were right with the team selection and dj breaking his foot and yes you probably did get told by someone at the club, and was very unfairly singled out, but so did the world and his wife got to hear before and during your post on here.
