Harry Redknapp was sensationally sacked from Birmingham City on Saturday night as Blues slipped to a sixth consecutive defeat. His departure means that the club now seek their fourth different manager within 12 months.

There's two things i don't agree with here ..

1 .. Harry Redknapp was sensationally sacked from Birmingham City on Saturday night as Blues slipped to a sixth consecutive defeat.

I don't know many people who were really surprised. I don't know if you saw the match but the first half performance was "meh" and the second half was worse than anything we saw under even Clarke and Zola. Straight after the match Redknapp was asked what he had said at half-time, he replied "nothing much, just carry on the same". I'd go as far as to say it was in the top 10 of the most insipid piss-poor performances (in the second half) that i've seen in 50 years of going

2.. i disagree with you (and everyone else as it happens) about the midweek tweet

"It's easy to believe in people when they're succeeding. But that's not what we're about. We have to believe in each other when we fail."

I never saw that as saying they still believed in Redknapp ... quite the opposite in fact. To me, it was a final warning ... "Harry, it was easy to believe in you when you were winning, but that's not the important thing to us, we have to believe in you when you are failing too... do something to convince us that we should still believe in you"

Just my thoughts anyway.
