What I'm cocking my nose up at is his win percentage this season.
25%.
You'll probably have a response. It wasn't good enough in my eyes and wasn't in the eyes of the owner. That's about it really.
On to the new man who hopefully gets us playing a bit and winning games.

You must have known it wouldn't be an easy ride inheriting a bunch of players failing as a team. Getting us to the play offs last year was no mean achievement.
You brought a few good boys in but unfortunately it wasn't quite enough.
I have no doubt you gave it your best shot.
I wish you good luck for the future.

He must be going through it right now and it's not his fault because he gave it 100% and did his best. There was a big element of bad luck but sadly the bottom line is results so although it could easily have gone differently ,it didn't , and he carries the can.
I for one have complete respect for him and wish him very well indeed. I have no doubt that he's learned a great deal which will help him go on to great success somewhere in time.

Interesting stats. The draws (or not losing) must make the big difference then.
NH comes to about 1.45 points/game for CCFC compared to MM at 1.62. MM's must have been pretty good in the Championship.

Our win percentage this season is not 25%.
Re: NEIL HARRIS SACKED - CONFIRMED
Whoever comes in will have to cope with fans calling for the manager’s head after 2 defeats on the trot (a la Real Madrid) and saying we deserve better (quoting our glorious history of 2 seasons in top flight in 50 years).

if people think we are going to get a manager with a win rate much above 40% they are seriously, seriously deluded.
Yeah, winning 40% of your games is not a problem.
Neil Harris's problem was the 11 defeats in 24 league games this season.

You are right. It is 33%. I looked at Millwall below City as I looked across.
It is still not good enough for this team or squad. The sentiment remains.
Re: NEIL HARRIS SACKED - CONFIRMED
It amazes me that some are still arguing for Harris on the thread.
It was nowhere near enough this time round. If this wasn't sorted out he could well have taken us down.

We certainly deserve better than 6 defeats in a row surely

Nobody is defending Harris but they're criticising you because you're talking out of your arse.
Your first post says his win %age was similar to Millwall, then you say it isn't that, its this and then that. Just give it a bloody rest. Stick to watching Schalke and leave the stats :-).
