    Duchatelet has sacked seven managers in two-and-a-half years. Slade spoke in summer about being given time to build something at #cafc.
  • O'Loughlin will be the same as Fraye. He has no experience of football in this country and has only coached in the lower leagues of Belguim.

    Is this complete and utter never-ending farce affecting anyone else's ability to get any work done?!

    What Chris O'Loughlin is it then?

    Had a feeling this was going to happen this week so can't say I'm surprised. I do have some sympathy for Slade, he's clearly not the most talented manager but he was clearly tied with what he could actually do. Time will tell but I'd say he probably had us about the position that squad deserved. Very worried about the future, if he doesn't sell then league 2 is a genuine possibility in the next 18 months.

    What Chris O'Loughlin, the fencer, the psychiatrist, or the one that lives in Alice Springs?

    I'm a little surprised at how many are on here calling this a joke. Slade's teams, and he himself, have been booed a fair few times. There have been a lot of us on here calling for him to be sacked and saying he's out of his depth. Perhaps those people have just been more vocal of late because of Saturday's bad performance, or perhaps it's my own confirmation bias as I believe sacking him is the right decision. But seems a lot are unhappy now.

    O'Loughlin has been at the last three home matches and in directors' lounge.

    The official line at time was that he was assisting Steve Head with scouting.

    The club have told the media they would issue a statement at 7pm. It's now 7.15 and still silence. They can't even tell the truth about that!!

    In fairness to him he'll be far better than Fraeye. St Truiden were in the top division in Belgium when he was in charge, that's a million miles from the experience Fraeye had.

    I really don't care who we get next.
    I started calling him Russell Slide. Then Feckwit Slide. He didn't have a clue. The next fella won't get long anyway. It's just a continuing revolving door. No sensible sod wants the job so we're gonna get dross until the bollocking Belgians bugger off. We may just get lucky with a bloke who knows what a midfielder looks like. If that's you Chris O'Loughlin then welcome.

    Do they know that when they sack a manager and replace them with another it usually means we are going to struggle for the rest of the season? Like day follows night we are fucked. Again.

    Don't forget Katrien had to interview 20 applicants before deciding O'Laughlin was the best one

    Slade's rebuilding blocks were there. Sure, we'd only got the foundations down so far but the starting point was a nuclear disaster. #cafc

    We're all impatient as fans, but no one manager is going to fix this in months. #cafc
  • Won't help anything. He's the best we could hope for under this regime...

    I can't help feeling sorry for him... I feel he was little more than a victim/pawn in all this.. but then he did know what he was getting into/he should have known...

    Despite thinking the sacking is pointless / too soon, there is no way I feel sorry for him:

    1 - knew what he was getting into.
    2 - produced some shite football and under achieved.
    3 - Slagged fans off
    4 - will likely get a nice pay off and not care a jot for us going forward.

    It's us I feel sorry for.

    Put £25 on us to go down @ 14/1 at the beginning of the season. Following the same pattern as last season.
