It seems that Posh have sacked the manager Darren Ferguson following the slip to the bottom of the Championship after the comprehensive defeat at Newcastle. There is nothing on the Club's website but it has been widely reported across the media.
Now I firmly believe no one manager or player (or for that matter Chairman) is bigger than the Club so I view this sacking as yet another indication of the weird business that is football. To sack a man who has taken the team to the Championship from mid to low table League 2 in two seasons beggars my belief but I don't own the club.
This is the first mistake Darragh Macanthony has made and I fear it will cost him a lot more than the compensation owed to Darren who only signed a new 4 year contract in the Summer. It is a funny old game as Jimmy Greaves says, but it is only a game.
Good luck to Darren who has shown he is at the very least competent as a manager.
Newcastle Supporters Trust has launched their "Yes We Can" campaign to raise enough capital to buy out Mike Ashley. Good luck to them. I can't see them doing it and they have overlooked the fact that Mike Ashley will only sell at the right price and even then doesn't have to sell to anyone if he doesn't want to, but good luck to them all the same.
Music today is another track from Hope and Social. I hope you have at least checked out their website.
