    Terrible decision that will come back and bite them.

    Lots of talk about their squad and how missing the play offs would be a failure over the past few weeks so not hugely surprised. When you consider how strong though the 3 that came down were and the season Ipswich have had, that's 4 of the top 6 gone straight away. Considering how much they've improved on last season it does seem harsh.

    Seriously?
    Rosenoir has done an excellent job, especially in terms of transforming a rather dour team into an attractive one.
    I absolutely agree with others, from the outside it looks a ridiculous decision.

    Rosenoir was always one of the best pundits and is someone I would be delighted to have manage us at some stage.

    Would be very surprised if Sunderland aren't all over appointing Rosenior.

    Good appointment. I notice Cambridge sacked him when they were 4 points above the drop, and ended up finishing 4 points above the drop.
  • Bonkers decision from Hull to sack Rosenior... has shades of Birmingham's bright idea to get rid of Eustace which has come back to haunt them...

    Rosenior has been very unlucky in Management so far, given he was pretty unfairly sacked by Derby last season as well

    He worked wonders there.

    Personally i think Rosenior has paid the price for getting Hull up there too early and raising the owners expectations.

    If they'd had a steady season but finished strongly and ended 7th then i think he might have kept his job. But they were actually in the play off spots at one point but dropped out after winning only 3 of their last 13 games.

    So rightly or wrongly, the owner probably looks at it and feels like Rosenior fucked it up.

    Stevenage have named Alex Revell as their new manager.

    The 40-year-old former striker, who made 57 appearances for the club as a player, had been in interim charge since 17 April.

    Neil Banfield will be his assistant. Wasn't he our academy manager at one point?

    Yes, he was.

    Has worked under Beale recently, not sure if they met at Charlton?

    Not managerial,  but being reported that Steve Kavanagh has left his post of CEO at Millwall along with head of recruitment.

    Regarding West Ham, I truly can't believe some of their fans mindsets in where they 'belong' in the footballing pyramid. 

    There's a bloke at my work (lovely chap) that genuinely believes they should have been up there competing with the likes of old ManU and challenging top4 consistently. Doesn't think where they sit now is good enough and thinks the conference run wasn't all that. Bloody mental. 

    I think they've had a bad appointment here West Ham, and think they'll regret letting Moyes go. I genuinely wouldn't have West Ham even in my top15 clubs in England in terms of stature, probably around the top20 somewhere. If anything I think they've over achieved this and last season.

    West Ham currently get the second highest attendances in the country after Man U. I fully appreciate that if other clubs had higher capacities that would change but no way are there 15 bigger clubs.

    The big 6, Newcastle, Everton, Leeds and Sunderland are the only clubs i can think of who would pull 64k crowds in the PL.

    They should definitely do better than they did last season (finished 6 points off relegation) but i think where they are now (9th) is about right.

    He's blamed the squad and blamed the pre-season under Warnock  :D

    Swindon have made an approach for Barnet's Dean Brennan, but it seems he wants to stay there.

    West Ham United used to be an OK club with a distinctive identity and location.
    Now they are a joke in a stolen stadium with an extremely nasty board member who governs us via the House of Lords.
    And yes, their acquisition of the Olympic/Taxpayers stadium is something political. 
    Leave them alone they won the world cup in 1966

    I'd say 'big 6', Villa, Newcastle, Everton, Leeds, Sunderland, Wolves, Derby, Nottingham Forest, and Leicester, I would certainly say are bigger. I would maybe add West Brom as well to the mix.

    They do have a lot of fans, and they do well ticket sales wise, but they haven't really won much generally speaking, and never won the top flight. 

    I could see why someone would have them in their top15 biggest clubs, but just not for me personally. I think they've overachieved, and their fans should be happy with what they've done.

    No way are Derby, Forest, Wolves, Leicester and West brom bigger clubs than West Ham.

    Villa i'd probably have on par with West Ham but they weren't even selling out Villa Park (42k) a few years ago when they were struggling, which was why i kept them off my original list.

    Also the fact that West Ham haven't won much but still get 60k crowds surely enhances the point that they're a big club.
