He did a good job and seems a very reasonable chap.

Seems a bit odd for it to be "mutual"

He must be expecting a premier league vacancy soon.

I looked briefly last weekend at trying to get a price for Jones at Stoke to be first manager sacked in all divisions but couldn't find one, saved £20 but don't think it will be long if they continue as they are.

Is it 'our' Keith Lowe suing for unpaid monies?

It is - an interesting one given that Chris Brass launched the winding up petition against Bury initially

Says a few odd things but looked like he did a good job there, maybe on the lookout for a better opportunity now. Fair do's, took the only job he was offered and did well at it, deserves a crack a bit higher up.

Got to give him his due. He did a good job for them in rather difficult circumstances.

Paul Ince did a good job too at Macc but then ran out of steam after MKDons, Rovers Notts Co and Blackpool

Fair play to Sol, plenty of people took the mickey out of him, which tbf he brought on a lot of it himself but he put his money where his mouth is and did a good job at Macclesfield.

Why does everyone assume Sol has what it takes to be a manager.
Often good players make poor managers
Either was he needs to start with another lower league club and prove himself

He started at a lower league club and kept them up against the odds....

Are you saying he needs to do it all over again?
Personally I think he's shown potential and deserves a crack at a more stable club or one higher up the league's.

Sol did a great job against the odds . Right time for him to go regardless really . He’l be very much in the box seat for the 1st 1st div/low champ management sackings .A decent league 1 club with a few £ could do his CV no damage at all
