Spain Manager sacked 1 day before World Cup

Yay, nice rest for Merlin, he'll be back at the same time as the English lads.

I won’t lie, I have been (very) quietly counting that as a positive in this whole sordid affair.

 

[Blue Til Death]

Quite right too, he could have been straight with em and arranged to leave after the WC ... Dont blame em getting rid of him, he’s done his work already and Spain will do very well anyway methinks

Jurgen Klinsmann is available.

At least dave will be home earlier now,seriously though what was he thinking

 

[SkyBlueTX]

The real shame is that we can’t use the Andy Tate meme anymore now that Giggsy’s got the Wales gig.

Think they took exception to only being told “5 minutes before it was announced publicly”.
Why RM and the manager couldn’t agree to keep it under wraps until after the WC even if they kept the FA in the dark - amateur

RM leak like crazy. As soon as something is decided it's public news.

I think Luis Rubiales is insane personally.
World cups come round every 4 years and Spain had a great chance. Its like he picked up a gun and blew his own head off. Spain haven't a hope in hell now.

Big Sam is currently buying a ticket to Russia as we speak.

 

[Blue Hefner]

Seems like a lose/lose for everyone

He's definitely made a rod for his own back. If Spain don't win it he's going to take the blame for interfering.
