Burley Sacked

News just in saying Burley has been sacked. This comes after a 3-0 loss to Wales.
quote Times Online
George Burley has been sacked as manager of Scotland. Burley's position, which had been under threat following Scotland's failure to qualify for the World Cup finals in South Africa next summer became untenable after the 3-0 drubbing by Wales in a friendly on Saturday.

The 53-year-old had his contract terminated by the SFA after winning just 3 of his 14 games in charge of the national side. Scotland had also failed to score in their past five outings, their last goal coming in the April 1 encounter with Iceland at Hampden Park in a 2-1 World Cup qualifying victory.

Terry Butcher and Paul Hegarty, Burley's assistants, will also leave their jobs.
Whats your thoughts on this?
Who should be next manager?

Sorry mods if u think this should be in the football discussion thread.

re: Burley Sacked

Scotland do have potential but the hiring of Burley was a mistake. He's a shit manager. If they want to reach their potential then they need a good manager.

Darren Ferguson anyone?

Alex McLeish won't leave Birmingham now that they have new owners and he has the chance to splash some cash.

re: Burley Sacked


I thought that this was going to be announced today, after that loss against Wales courtesy of Aaron Ramsey. Unlucky, but I guess he shouldn't have stayed longer.

re: Burley Sacked

It was coming. But i'm glad the left it till the end of the qualifiers, no point sacking him halfway and the new manager gets a fresh start without his mess to fix.
