Firing bosses on social media rage is for weak supremos

By CandH follower The Cat

Sacking managers due to outrage on social media alongside the echo chamber of the news media is a very EASY thing to do for a weak chairman.

Imagine life as a Watford supporter and being held hostage by a chairman who probably bases his decisions on the daily ramblings of a section of supporters who possibly believe that Watford should be in the Premier League playing Champions League football, is both unrealistic and insane.

I was brought up to understand that you have to cut your cloth to suit. We all admire clubs that have a plan like this, and maybe, knowledge, understanding and a clear road map are what most supporters need.

Decisions should be made based on this knowledge, understanding and trust. At Palace, it doesn’t seem that many of the “essentials” were in place and to use (if true) the fallback option of a 75 yr-old Roy Hodgson, will leave most Palace supporters perplexed.

Surely this can’t be seen as great decision making and for Steve Parrish to name-check our club, as if to validate his decision sounded even more ridiculous to me.
