McClaren Sacked!

For the record, McClown didn't win the Uefa cup, they got spanked.

Also FC Twente, dutch league is weird, in his first year in charge they came 11 points behind AZ Alkmaar, who had finished 11th the year before. Twente had finished 4th for the previous 2 seasons, the next season Alkmaar lost a shedload of games under Koeman who had just come in, and they fired him.

He certainly didn't do badly at Twente, but he didn't take an 11th placed team and turn them into champions, he took an established top 4 side, watched Ajax in their crap years, and watched AZ drop out of the top four all by themselves.

typing error in regards to the uefa , whole sentence missing. getting to the final was still a huge achievement.

its not really that weird at all , that was a freak season for AZ who have been competing for europe and the title for several seasons

twente where an established top 4 side ??? they had 2 good seasons and then lost some of their best players and where expected to struggle by pretty much everyone , this is a fact but if you've never spoken to a twente fan you wont know how much they expected nothing from him and ended up worshipping him.

the twente honours list says it all to be fair just like the boro one , with mclaren giving them both some of the best seasons of football they ever had and it was hardly englands worst ever year was it...

Christ! No sorry it's me having a moment. I maintain there is Whiston somewhere near L'pool though as I drove through on my way to L'pool :p

It's near Ravenfield? I'm only down the road in Coinsborough (Near Denaby / Old Denaby / Hooton / Cadeby), or well that's where I'm from I'm not living there now :p

You'll have to drop me a facebook or something next time you're up there mate and I'll try and get up and come see your Welsh self.
