Seems to be more reports of Sacked rather than walked

[biggie]

Keith downie saying that he had lost dressing room, made players angry with his comments etc

Doesn't look like a Straight forward "I resign"

Why doesn't it? Surely those things would make him likely to resign.

Looking 'mutual', if he had walked why would there be chat about him not taking the pay-off - there would be no pay-off.

matters not

time to look forward

Fell on his sword I imagine.

pork?

Theres no way he's resigned with no payout. It'll be reported that way and no doubt another clause so he stays quiet

He'd have missed.

Honestly, fuck what the players think. The lot of them have been absolutely atrocious and have left each and every one of us down yet the manager's been taking all their shit for it.

Mate he was draining the life out of the fans by simply being himself from day 1. The player's are human aswell and probablys felt the same way. He absolutely failed in the job

This. Mirror reporting he turned down £3 million compo.
How the fuck would he get that if he walks out? He couldn't

Would it not come out via the club accounts if he had?

The players are the ones running the club at the moment. They have all the power. That's because it's been allowed to happen from the likes of Short and Byrne in the past. How the fuck anyone thinks this club is going to go anywhere with a culture like that is beyond me. These are grown men who are paid extortionate amounts of money to do what they do and when they have someone telling them the honest truth then they throw their toys out the pram. It's pathetic. The same problems will be here for whoever it is in charge, make no mistake.

I'm no fan of Moyes but certain players flat out refusing to play (happened on at least 2 occasions even before yesterday) is shameful regardless of what they think of the manager.

Guess so, took a while for Byrne's payout to come out in public. Might be wrong, just find it hard to believe he'd walk away from a long contract with nothing

I've never seen players so openly indicating they wouldn't play for a manager ..... Moyes must've been dreadful to work under.

TBH. He really didn't have much of a choice. Job was completely untenable.
