[philipl]

Indian web site goal.com reporting Berg has been sacked.

Almost as interesting as Glen breaking the story on facebook quoting Balaji is him calling for the action group to go.

Probably need to rewrite your fb post which starts the action group must go.

[Blue n White Rover]

Still nothing on the official website. I'm guessing the press statement is on someone's desk at Ewood waiting to be released.

We've been here before ladies and gentlemen!

It was my attempt of humour, hence the bracket statement at the end :-p

[chaddyrovers]

This story is must likely true sadly. Goal is owned by Espn who SS used to work for them

would be sad to see a great rovers player being sack but things just havent work out

[SouthAussieRover]

I just wish Venkys would go forth and multiply off.

[Blue n White Rover]

The article is pretty clear. No paper would use direct quotes and pass them off as certain. They could get sued if that was the case.

I'm expecting him to leave.

[philipl]

I wonder if our classless owners have told Berg yet?

[SAS]

Wonder what the difference is with one month of poor results compared to almost two years....

[SydneyRover]

To be fair, this is the first time the owners have made swift decisive action when it was needed. The last time they took a decision like this was when they sacked Sam but obviously that wasn't needed. Since then they've taken a long time with every important decision.

Since they will be paying Bergs compensation, at least it appears they still care about us getting promoted.

And invariably got every one wrong...

Berg would not do as he was told...

like what?

What, get results?

Same team Kean and Black got decent results from, I like Berg but clear he was/is not up to the job.

[Blue n White Rover]

like what?

Like some Norwegian members posted when he took over. Just another puppet after all.

Shut up you oaf

[alexanders]

He has below 10% win ratio. Failed.

[SydneyRover]

Is his the shortest (non caretaker) spell ever for a Rovers manager?

[Ricky]

Stop making stuff up as pass it off as fact Philip. You really don't do yourself any favours. If he's gone surely its on the basis of results. I'd rather them take quick action than us have a Kean situation where we are stuck with a manager who isn't up to the job

Seemed like a reasonable assumption to me, Ricky. Aimed more at Kean's likely sycophantic loyalty than any anarchic Berg rebellion.

[Stuart]

Goal have the story now.

Belaji Rao: "I want to go up"

That costs money but also requires a sound strategy and stable club administrators, dear boy.

FFS, he sounds like a clueless ignoramus who has been used to getting what he wants all his life without earning it. He'll be wanting the fans' respect next!

[chaddyrovers]

The LT is saying Berg close to the Exit. the owners had talks last nite n watch the game on tv back home
