dont know anything of the situation but sounds like he didnt have the testicular fortitude to prove himself and regain the League One status next year

I am not surprised or sorry to see Scotty go. His record was appalling but he was only appointed cause he was the cheapest option.
Sadly the players we have are the worst in the clubs history and unless we get players who want to fight for the club , I fear we will struggle next year.

Good Move for Brentford. Bring back Micky Adams. Now Dyke has to go. Downwards since he has got to Griffin Park.

I refuse to believe it was Scott Fitzgerald's fault.I've been to most games this season and quite frankly its been embarassing,Not because of tactics or anything else it is down to the players who are the worst I've ever seen at the club excluding Owusu and Kuffour.All of our problems have stemed down from one thing:The Idiot who offered Dj Campbell a 1 year contract.If he wud of stayed Martin Allen would of stayed and we would of bene promoted and therefore not be in League 2.Sack the Board and bring in Micky Adams

"The idiot" was Martin Allen - who was also responsible for us losing Tabb, Turner and Sodje - the heart of our team.

And could we afford Adams (not the brighest manager in our history first time round).

Our run of form was poor this season though we started off quite well.. i personally have no idea who we can get to manage us now. Micky Adams will be too pricey i think. and im still not convinced about the player turned coaches, like scotty, Denis Wise etc.. interesting to see Wally now coaching for Reading in the premiership tho!

The club is in total disarray from the top to the bottom. Rosenior's sacking was a travesty. Fitzgerald's appointment even worse. Far from bouncing back, as our illustrious (in his eyes) chairman hopes, we are candidates for the Conference next season. I have supported the club for over 40 years - most of which has been spent coping with disappointment - but I have never been as demoralised as I am now. BFC RIP.

I wouldn't have sacked him, but it's happened and there is plenty of time to get a good replacement in to work with the squad/bring players in through the summer.

Fitz did his best, but please can we not have another inexperience manager? Either invest some money on someone with experience who is proven at this level, or a younger manager who will have contacts and can sign better players he may have recently or previously played with.
