Oldham fans, you’re welcome. Curle gone  That wasn't expected was it? I thought that their gripe was with the owners not the manager?

Some Oldham fans saying it's no surprise he has gone, stubbornness to change a system that wasn't working is their main gripe.

Does seem harsh after last night's second half performance. He was their ninth manager since 2018

Given Oldham's win at Port Vale, and their 2nd half performance yesterday find that surprising. will have little sympathy if they go down.

None of Oldham's last 15 managers have lasted a calendar year so KC's 8 months is longer than a lot of them. He must have realised when he accepted the job that it was only likely to be short term.

So he's probably now getting a pay off from us and Oldham ?

I would have thought that a club sacking a manager should be liable to continue paying him to the end of his contract or offer him a lump sum payment to conclude his tenure (probably less than the total due to the end of his contract). If we had the first agreement we would not have paid him much as he was appointed at Oldham within a month. If we paid a lump sum KC did very well out of the deal.

I find the whole thing about paying someone after you have sacked them for being useless completely stupid. This is one of the things that the EFL needs to look at and put an end to.

There is no way there will be an end to it, you can’t sack players for being useless either without paying them off. It’s up to the chairman how long a contract he wants to give the manager.

Ok, so have a clause in the contract...or do you think in Keith Curle's case, it's a buyers market?

I don't think you can say KC was "useless" otherwise he would not have got us promoted and we would not have had those 2 unforgettable games to conclude that season. Unfortunately we had a poorer team the next season to compete in a higher division whether that was due to poor recruitment or because of the budget at KC's disposal we could not attract better players we will never know. It was evident on Tuesday that he is able to change tactics which almost brought him some success but he was too rigid tactically here.

The fact we got promoted was more down to COVID than Keef.

With the the season finishing early the Cobblers were left in a position to be in the play offs, would they have been there if the season had been completed ? Nobody knows and nobody ever will. To say they only got promoted because of Covid is pure speculation. Just give the man credit for getting us in the playoffs and then promoted.
