Sean O'Driscoll sacked

[Motown Fox]

Doncaster sack him and are going to appoint Dean Saunders as the new manager

 

[Nottingham Fox]

Im sure I read yesterday his job was safe despite the bad start ... :icon_lol:

Laughable appointment in Saunders. I'd have O'Driscoll here as first team coach.

Big mistake by them IMO. I really rate O'Driscoll as a manager, I wanted him when we sacked Sousa. He'll be back in work before too long, and it looks like Donny could be be finished in the Championship...

Dean Saunders ! LOL

Confirmed relegation.

BBC report

O'Driscoll, 54, was the longest-serving manager in the Championship with five years in charge of Rovers.

September 22: Doncaster chairman writes, at length, that he will be sticking by manager Sean O'Driscoll. 'For the people shouting for the manager's head, I ask the questions 'who would you replace him with? Who is better?' I can't think of any manager that is better equipped for the job, and those clubs who sack managers willy nilly end up relegated.

'The board and I are not going down that path. You only have to look at our neighbours Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday - need I say more?'

September 23: Ryan places O'Driscoll on gardening leave, replacing him with Dean Saunders.

Ahhhhh, the dying art of misdirection.

Perhaps they'd just noticed though that SO'D's garden was looking a little untidy. You can't have that. Even Martin Allen realised how important 'insert club's primary colours' flowers about the place are.

The cynical "vote of confidence" is rarely as detailed as this. It suggests that the chairman has been out voted.

Madness.......

Could he, would he be interested in coming here and working as a coach? I have a huge respect for him I must say, I should imagine he would want a managerial position though.

Looks like Saunders wasn't missed by Wrexham as they beat Grimsby away
