copperhorse21 Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 Do you move back home and refuse to talk to the media until you announce your next job?

(Chris Coleman) Do you coach at a different club until your former club comes begging for your return?

FlUoReScEnT aDoLeScEnT Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I tend to pull a Mourinho, i'll holiday until a decent job comes up, as i recently got sacked by Man city =( for failing to reach the semis of the ECC even though i went out against Barcelona, got knocked out of the F.A Cup by a in-form chelsea team top of the league by 9 points, and we are 2nd in the league, which isn't far in my eyes so with my continetal rep in hand i holidayed until something half-decent came up, atm i have rejected about 30 jobs, from championship, Liga BBVA, Serie B jobs, but i want a biggish job, with european ambitions, but are doing poor in the league i guess.

eggfwiedwice Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 You forgot: Do you humour yourself and decide to manage part-timers so that you can be the biggest star at a club and fight the conformity of "better the manager, better the club he should manage"? (Peter Taylor) If I was saked, I would do a Mourinho. It's what I'm doing internationally after resigning a year and a half ago from those annoying England chokers.

earmack Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I've only been sacked unjustly once...I took a job with a championship team (former team was in the prem) and worked the team up to the prem only to have my former team be relegated in the same year, I abused the new manager for a while (every week) untill I got bored. There should be an option to firebomb the chairman who sacks a manager for being 8th in his first season in the prem after turning a team of part timers into contenders in 7 season.

Neji Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Get on with it and pray for the day when I can get my revenge. One game saw me sacked for overachieving at Nottm Forest. I went to Southend and destroyed them everytime I played them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_G_32201 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 ive only ever been sacked once and that was because of a new board i allready had a good rep by then so i unsettle thier rivals manager took over there and made sure i beat them everytime.

cliff7197 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Every time I've been sacked I've fully deserved it. So I just get on with it and manage another club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaunO1 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I agree with cliff I dont think i can remember being sacked unfairly. I usually just take the first jib i am offered. Sort of like Steve mcclaren (beggers carnt be chhosers ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen of the Stevenage Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I haven't been sacked since the dark days of CM01/02. This is mainly due to the fact that I can't seem to get past 2 seasons atm! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhorse21 Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Truly, I am surprised that no one has registered rage as their primary instinct. I think I'm off to conduct a dyslexic experiment involving the de-evolution of a well-established club. Personally, I think Chelsea deserves to be taken down a notch after what they did to Jose this season. Even as an avid Arsenal fan, I still sympathize with The Chosen One's Exit Stage Left.

t j 17 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Do a Mourinho. Id wait until a chance to manage one of the home nations comes up, or until I see a team that I feel has history, and the potential to return to the glory of there former glory days.

Slagdog Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Im more of a Kevin Keegan, slip out the back door before the knock comes. Went through 7 clubs (5 of which were quick exits before I would have been sacked) in 4 countries, and a small time national job before my career took off. Not looked back since, now manager of double CL winning Barca. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
