Regardless of what may or may not have gone on, this is nothing but terrible news.

- looks like we're getting rid. No mention of illness etc. Unless the equivalent of Pep comes in now and we shoot up the table, this new regime are going to lose all credibility with fans. Very very risky. Warnock: "My health is good, I've never felt better! If anything I've got the buzz again. I'm sure when February comes round people will be asking me again." Obviously not planning to retire. Well Firstly - Glad his health is good which is the most important thing of all really... 😊 👍 He’s (quite rightly) advertising himself for another rescue mission around then - I just hope n’ prey it’s not HTAFC begging him back again to save our Championship Status... It’d just be so so very Town to bloody well end out doing that ! ☹️

It's just a really sad way for Warnock to end his managerial career at Town. Really awful and not a way I'd like to be treated if I was him. But hasn’t he been treated broadly in the way he was always expecting to be treated? I don’t see it’s being badly treated…..

Give the new bloke time before the January window, let him see what he wants.
It sounds to me like NW was temp, as we all know he was, maybe thats why he didnt get the players he wanted in the summer. Would you want to sign for someone who only has 9 months left on his contract??
Get a "permanent" manager in and give him a fair crack of the whip.
NW was always leaving, it sounds like its all happened quicker than we orginaly though it would, but dont forget as much as we all love NW, he was ready to walk away in the summer orginally
But my god they need to get the next appointment fucking bang on,

I would have kept him till Christmas at least, to get us to a more comfortable mid table position.
We’ll be able to see the ambition based on who’s appointed, if he’s good enough to make Neil leave early then I hope we then back him in the transfer market.

They beg Warnock to stay , get rid of some good staff to bring in Warnocks choices and just as the team starts to fire six games in they shove the manager out the door with all his new staff! Been a town supporter since the mid 1960s and no matter who owns the club its the same shambolic crap year after year

I mean, as seen as he's the only manager whose actually been able to get anything other than pathetic performances from this group of players, I'd of hoped he'd of been consulted and able to advise how to get the most out of the team we have until Jan/End of the season. It's fine having a plan and a vision, but when we're fresh out of a transfer window and tip toeing around FFP, the short term goal of remaining a championship side outweighs the long-term goal of PL. But how does that work? Employ person X but tell them how to play? That's not going to go well. The alternative: stick with Warnock himself - which clearly the club don't see as a long-term solution. It's a very brave move and the name of the new appointment will tell us whether this is a huge mistake or not - but if we want a structured, ambitious plan then we have to give the club the chance to see it through. Don't get me wrong, I do agree with your point. I just feel that for him to have no idea who the manager is (of course, he could actually) is a bit naive. Mostly due to having Nagle etc who don't really know a great deal about the realities of English football. As much advice and opinion seeking pre-decision regarding the new manager would've help to minimise risk imo. If he really hasn't been told or consulted (as this was stated NW would have a place in this a few months back) then it shows the strain on the relationshup between NW and Nagle imo. NW always knew this would be temp and he would be off at some point within the next 9/10 months. But you can tell how annoyed he is in the conference, even just from the Sky stream.

Without knowing who the new manager is yet.
I can't see any realistic appointment being anything other than a huge downgrade on Warnock and Jeppo.

Did the 3 year plan to reach the Prem include given Danny Ward a 2 year deal? Or factoring in the starting point might be league one if this all backfires, so consecutive promotions - whopee!

Maybe acting now before lower Prem clubs start sacking and attracting managers that are currently between jobs - Wilder, Moore. Rooney mentioned - decent contacts for Jan loans? Trying to be positive, but fingers firmly crossed

I think this was always the plan.
Secure Warnock upon takeover until we find the 'perfect' replacement. It's just taken 3 months rather than a season.
Hopefully there's an exciting, forward thinking appointment incoming to make us and the world say "fook me, htafc are really going for it".

I always thought it was a risk employing Warnock for another season but I was also happy because I’ve always been a fan of his. Having worked for a couple of American companies myself this has all the hallmarks of falling out with the management-with the yanks it’s their way or the highway. Good luck Neil and thanks for all you’ve done for Town (and other proper football clubs)

Well, it sounds like we've found Warnock's successor, and that there was always an agreement that him and his team would step aside when we were ready to replace them. Perhaps this has all happened a little faster than expected, but the parting sounds amicable, and both parties have kept their word.
I'm particularly interested to know who the new head coach will be. If the club make a mistake here then they will invite a lot of criticism because, from the sounds of things, Warnock was expecting to be in charge until around Christmastime. It would also be useful for Nagle to let the fans know what his three-year plan involves in a little more detail. Put simply it is to get promoted in three years, but I'd quite like to know how he intends to do that - which aspects they intend to address first.

He was informed of his departure at the West Brom game. Sounds like it's down to what he said in the press conference. Mental. Who sacks a manager after winning two games! You mean like we did after Lee Clark(e) after that Sheff Utd game? After he’d secured our place in the history books with an (almost unbroken) unbeaten run?

You can see from his words that he loves his players. Jeez we have lost a good guy here We should protest. This isn't the way to treat him or our club. I love it when I get a tap in…

NW: "I've always got on with Jake, funnily enough, I feel as if I've done my job now. I've seen rumours I've blown up or been fed up, but I've got a great relationship with the Club.
"Whoever comes in is a lucky man. They'll be getting a great squad here."

"I can't tell you who the new manager is because they've not told me, so I assume it's someone I don't like!" - Wilder it is then Or Gary Megson Don't make my day worse than it is already.
