Just when we need Brum to buck up a bit.

Usually get a new manager bounce... here's hoping.

If bastards weren't occupying the bottom 3 I'd be happy if Brum went down. They sacked Rowett when chasing a playoff spot. Crazy decision that may bite them in the ass.

Only because the doctor told him to. He was on 40 a day.

Just heard. He should have never got the job in the first place. He should have quit long ago. His timing could let Bastards off the hook. How are the Blues going to react to that, I do hope it's positive.

Lovely for 2 reasons. 1) hopefully an upturn in Brums results and 2) they are my team in the works betting. Obviously, they have been a constant source of lost money.

I guess it depends on how quickly they find a replacement. New manager syndrome is something that Rovers could do without.

Bob Latchford is the early favourite to replace him.

Good idea to replace a failure with a 66 yr old who has never (as far as I know) managed.

Bob Latchford, that's a name I've not heard for a while.
Aitor Karanka, Alex Neil and Nigel Pearson are the early bookies favourites

Too far south for OC, still a few more north of Brum he has not managed.
