Steve Kean secretly filmed calling Sam Allardyce a "f**king crook"

Whenever you listen to the majority of football managers it makes you wonder if they have the brains to manage a cake shop, let alone a multi-milion pound business.

I agree with you, Ken. In almost all spheres of management you expect standards of intellect, ability, leadership and professionalism. In football it seems that if you are part of the old boys club then there's a job. This guy is a joke.

 

I do think our Nige is different though. Thoroughly professional in his approach and always upbeat.

Bit harsh making him fly all the way out to India just to be told he's sacked.

 

He should be used to the flight by now. He's been flying out there once a week to have meeting's with the owners since he took over.

 

Apparently one of the reasons Fat Sam got sacked was because he refused to do that. Can't blame him really.

Indeed, far too much emphasis is put on 'did they play at a high level'. Forgetting that many players are brainless and talent has nothing to do with management.

And yet Kean didn't even manage to play at a high level. He is/was a highly-respected and highly-qualified coach, although suspect much of that respect has evaporated over the last 18 months, so he's actually the sort of bloke who should be ideal for coaching and management roles, i.e. someone who's had to make his way in the game without the backup of a successful playing career.

Is a bit. Didn't Man City make Mark Hughes fly out to the Far East to sack him?

I'd just ask them outright over the phone 'If you're going to sack me just tell me now and I'll fly off to Florida for two weeks instead'.

According to Sporting Intelligence on twitter, Kean is flying out to India tonight. Looks like he will be subject to a sacking.

 

Wrong. He's been sent out there for a decent takeaway, Venksys arent putting up with chicken tikka massala any longer...
