Bryan Gunn fired by Norwich City

An%20angry%20Norwich%20City%20fan%20throws%20his%20ticket%20at%20Bryan%20Gunn.jpg Bryan Gunn became the first managerial casualty of the season when he was sacked by Norwich City - a week into the new campaign.

Gunn had a nightmare start when the Canaries were crushed 7-1 at home by Colchester United but he was allowed to carry on and his side bounced back with a Coca Cola Cup win over Yeovil.

The popular Scot, who stepped into the post in an emergency, was with the players at their camp in Exeter when he was told the news.

Gunn is 'devastated' by the decision, coming hours before the game with the Devon club. He had hoped for more time to turn round the club's fortunes and handle their difficulties off the park.

Former Norwich City favourite Ian Crook will take charge today while the Canaries board consider a replacement - and the coach may even get the nod in the long term.

Ade Boothroyd in please!

I don't see how it was coming Damien? Arsenal beat Everton 7-0 once and Moyes wasn't sacked...

You could see how the fans revolted that something had to be done from board level so this isn't a surprise but maybe thats just my thought.

Really at Carrow Road on Saturday it was poor, I have a season ticket behind the goal. But Gunn rectified and made changes and won his next game 4-0. And was set to bring in a 13th signing. Now whats gonna happen?

Its sad, but football managers don't get enough time to do their job. Just look how close Man U came to sacking fergie. If it had been in this era they probably would have sacked him and lost out on all the wonderful things he has achieved.

      "...a low price of just $340..." I don't think it means what you think it means.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.

      It's a local account with the ability to reset a password at a very base level. I really don't get the issue that gets whipped up around it But you do you
