I've always liked Jewell, he's an honest good manager. Doesn't make excuses and takes defeats with dignity.
He's saved his clubs twice now on the last day of the season with ridiculous victories, first time with Bradford at our expense and now with Wigan away at Sheff Utd. The Premiership is a better league with Paul Jewell in it.
Well done Paul :handshake:

Contrast with Warnock. No contest. Glad Jewell's still in the Prem.

Bye bye Warncok :finger:
Better Jewell than that dickhead in the prem next season, at least its 6 points
guarenteed for THE REDS next season ;)
Pleased for Jewelly today. That's a fantastic photo, above. As Spud Gun says....one picture and a thousand words.
What the hell is people's problem with Warnock today?
I accept there are lots of people who can't stand him - I like him, think he's great for the game and a passionate, honourable man - but what is the problem with his reaction today???
Sheff United have been relegated by ONE GOAL. One single goal. Not a point, not by a gulf in goal difference - just one, solitary goal. Warnock, as a true Blade, is today a broken man yet he reacted with dignity, admitted they've given poor goals away all season, pointed to a few key moments in the season, but ultimately accepted they weren't quite good enough.
Here's his interview.

To be fair my main problem with his whinging is that he has rested players all season against big clubs to prioritise the games against the teams at the bottom. His hypercritical attitude is incredibly annoying.
There was also no need for the sniping against us.
It's not just today but over a longer period of time. I sometimes think he gets flak when it isn't deserved and today the criticism has been disproportionate to any crime. However over a period of time he has bought it on himself.

He also stated that his hero was Trotsky, and has named his tortoise after him.
Plus I used to watch him in our reserve team when I was a kid.
I like him lots.
OMGGGG my picture got jacked from the other thread...FAGGOTS!:finger: :finger:

Well in Shags - I like Warnock because he's a real football man.
He sometimes lets his mouth run away with him, but nobody can doubt his passion for his club and football in general.

seriously didn't see that coming!
Wigan have called a news conference for 1500 BST on Monday amid speculation that boss Paul Jewell is set to resign.
More to follow.
Funny but I saw that coming. I think that all the stress got to him.

...or he has another job lined up. Newcastle or City maybe?
Allardyce to Toon, Jewell to Citeh.
I can't see Pearce getting the sack though.

Why not? They've been abysmal this season.
The way Pearce was talking after the game yesterday, he knew his number was up - also said he would be leaving the signing and bringing in of new players to the Chief Executive because he was going to concentrate on the U-21s!!!

I can. The way they all frowned when talking about him on MOTD yesterday suggests it's an open secret he's in danger at least.

Warnick has got a big mouth but I agree with Shaggy the guy is absolutely gutted and is gonna be bitter about stuff, in fact anything that comes into his head at the time.
The facts dont lie we did play a weakened team against Fulham and if we hadnt i am sure we wouldnt have lost. For us that game didnt mean anything really but for Fulham along with Sheff U and Wigan what we did had greater implications.
am sure Jewell did the same to Bradford and fucked off to Weds.
He seemed to struggle at a bigger club. It remains to be seen whether or not he has learnt from the past and will be a success at Citeh or barcodes.

WTF. Off to City?
City/Newcastle?
Must be. Bizarre.
City seems to be the favs.
I wonder why he did this? Did the exact same thing after keeping Bradford up on the last day.
I wonder if he is admitting defeat that he cant do anything more with this team and so is getting out while the going is good or if he genuinely has something else lined up.
did he have sheff wed lined up last time?

I have no idea. To me it smacks of someone who's given up and thinks he cant do anything more with this team - but what do I know?

I seem to recall that Jewell had a problem with the Bradford chairman (Geoffrey Richmond) and that was part of the reason he quit. He looks to have a completely different relationship with Dave Whelan. I'm very surprised he's quit - maybe Wigan's ambitions do not match up with his (a bit like Allardyce leaving Bolton).

thought the same, might not have gotten full backing of the board whilst doing so badly, caould be a number of reasons. one might be that he feels he has done what he can do with the team, and not thinking he can take them any further, don't know...

Rafa left Valencia because he felt he didn't get enough backing from the board. I guess Jewell felt that he'd taken Wigan as far as anyone could. I can't imagine he'd resign without at least an inkling of a bigger job.
apparently they will announce the new wigan manager at 3pm today at the press conference.

Well they certainly didnt mess about.
As for Jewell, all the papers were saying yesterday that if SHinawatra takes over there, then Houllier is his choice as new manager. I have no doubts that Pearce will be made to move on, btu not heard of Jewell being linked before.
maybe new wigan manager will be glenn rhoederr lol

Wigan name Hutchings as new boss
Wigan chairman Dave Whelan has appointed Chris Hutchings as the club's new manager following the resignation of Paul Jewell.
Hutchings steps up from his role as assistant manager under Jewell, who has decided to take a break from football.
He also succeeded Jewell at Bradford, but lasted less than five months and won one of 12 Premiership games.
"He is a very, very capable manager and he's been Paul's right-hand man for a long time," said Whelan.

I'm off to the bookies to bet on Wigan to go down next season!
There are some very odd changes happening managerially at the minute. You have to wonder how Wigan or Bolton will attract the sort of players they need with managers with so little experience, irrelevant of their quality. It's not as if either team have great squad depth or a wealth of youth to bring through.
I guess Man City changing is to be expected, as Pearce spent money on Corradi and Samoras and they showed no improvement. Add to that the fact that players like Distin don't see a future at the club then you have to look to appointing a big name who might at least help bring in a better class of signing.

Fulham will be OK with Sanchez in control.
Bolton will also be much closer to the drop zone next season.
