Paul Scholes Sacked As Oldham Boss After 45 Minutes by Ninethmare(op): 3:26pm On Jan 26, 2019
Paul Scholes has been sacked as manager of League Two side Oldham Athletic less than an hour after being appointed. Scholes is believed to have referred to staff as ‘clowns’ and facilities as ‘shite’ during a tour of the club’s training ground on Chapel Road.

Class
“We wish him well,” Oldham chairman Abdallah Lemsagam told Soccer on Sunday. “For the 45 minutes he was here, Paul was different class. On behalf of everybody at Oldham, I’d like to thank Paul and his staff — who are also sacked by the way, in case that wasn’t clear to them — for their tireless efforts and professionalism.”


“The last 15 minutes obviously didn’t go as anybody would have liked,” said the Moroccan. “But Paul raised the bar during that first half hour. There’s big boots to fill now, and it’s my job to find someone with Scholes-sized and shaped feet.”

“Does anybody have Nicky Butt’s phone number?” added Lemsagam.

Scholes is disappointed not to have had more time to make his mark.

“It’s a shame,” the former Manchester UTD midfielder told Soccer on Sunday. “I told the chairman that he and his staff are clowns, and that the setup is shite. I was looking for a strong reaction, but he sacked me on the spot.”

”Football’s dead now, as far as I’m concerned,” added Scholes. “It died in 2012 when I retired and the interweb started.”

This scholes is a clown.. if he didn't want the job, he shouldn't have applied at the beginning. Didn't he do research about the football club before applying

I love this chairman. His action to fire Schooles on the spot for talking crap have endeared him to my heart.
He takes no prisoners. Great guy.

All these veterans thinking because they played the game that will translate to being a good manager.

Scholes should go back to running his mouth on tv analysis.

If all these players can feel like gods after retiring, how will Messi and Ronaldo feel when they retire? All these retired premier league players have mouth and they talk as if they would win the UEFA champions league if they coached Hull City. grin

Inexperience has cost him the job. Always good to start as an apprentice to learn first. Ask Thierry Henry and Gary Neville.

You can't take it from this Englishmen. there are so proud and full of shit, if the club is not up to standard why don't you start there and see how you can improve the standard




That was how Gary Neville was running his mouth until Valencia employed him he could not do a shit. if not for swift actions from Valencia board I know by now there would have been in the segunda.

Very shameful the way FAKE NEWS fly on NL. Even more embarrassing is the way commentators jump on the news as though they get a monetary reward from lasticlala ( I hope I spelled the B.S correctly).
