    Bizarre. 5 points clear of the relegation zone.

    Now 0 black managers in the entire Football League and Premiership.

    Obviously Hughton and Powell won't be unemployed for too much longer, so that statistic hopefully won't be talked about too much.

    Mackay ex Norwich, surely early favourite?

    Think their last few games include Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea and Everton. I'll be surprised if they don't go down.

    Yes, but changing the manager doesn't make the run-in any easier. Just seems risky to me to say the least.

    Could be a good job for Powell from next season if Norwich were relegated but I'd worry a post-relegation hangover might see him lose his job before Christmas...

    Perhaps he complained about one of Delia's pies.

    Norwich come across as a sensible club normally.

    Norwich's last five fixtures:

    Fulham (A)
    Liverpool (H)
    Man Utd (A)
    Chelsea (A)
    Arsenal (H)


    Very puzzled by the decision to get rid of Hughton with 5 games to go, four of which they don't really expect to get anything from regardless.

    Oh, believe me their Chief Exec will have someone lined up. Wouldn't trust that guy an inch.

    Don't think Delia, or more like Hubby, have a controlling interest anymore.

    Delia and her old man are both the majority share holders the chief exec is very pro Christ Houghton and the decision was very tough to make

    It was made after the away fans party where fans who have attended 10 or more away games get invited to a do with all players mgmt and board


    The youth team mgr is in charge for the remaining fixtures

    Not having someone lined up makes it even more of a ridiculous decision. I think they're down.

    Chris houghton weren't that bad though. Last season he was the Coleman's mustard at Norwich. Why sack a manager and put a youth team manager in charge?? Makes no sense at all. Teams like Norwich should be happy to just survive the drop. What more do they want? He would of kept them up. He is a decent manager.

    They are looking at the Fulham match as a must win and put them 5 points ahead with 4 to play

    Christ Houghton not winning away is the issue so they have changed it in the hope that things will change


    Personally sounds like they believe they are down already and just throwing any dice left

    They have a run in from hell playing all the big boys after Fulham and not anticipating getting a single point

    To play arsenal at home last game of season when the goonershite could need the result to get 4th place just suns up their luck

    If they are down already then wouldn't they be better off having a manager who cruised to The Championship title last time he managed in it?

    I reckon he didn't like Delia's roast potatoes. She's got all tricky about it and sacked him. Bang out of order.

    What gets me is Hughton has finished 11th in his first season at Norwich. One win this season could lift them to 13th in the table. They sack him and put an under 18s manager in charge.

    This doesn't sound right to me. They also sack his coaching staff also.

    Very disgraceful. Could bite them in the arse this. Jesus man that Hughton has some bad luck. Should not of been sacked from Newcastle.
