Anyone think they sacked him in anticipation that he would leave for a better club? That's the only semi-decent reason I can think of, and I think it's pretty dumb.

I don't even know if that's a semi-decent reason. Not knocking you at all, but if that was their line of thought...wow.

Yeah is that like the guy who outkicks his coverage with his girlfriend so he breaks up with her before she can leave him?

I really should have edited that sentence. You can see I contradicted myself at the end by saying how dumb that would be.

I'm probably spending too much time trying to make sense of a horribly idiotic decision. So I'll just leave it at that.

Agreed. To me, there's nothing embarrassing about losing a manager in the offseason to a bigger club due to good performance. It's bound to happen. But, that would mean that the club did well in the prior season and that ownership should be able to attract respectable candidates to fill the position.
