Been reported on SSN........whoever gets the job has a lot of work to do and will need to bring some players in, to keep them up, althrough only 5 points from saftey

[Terry Cheung]

So he's going to be sacked for overachieving? Derby are a championship team and playing above their level. No manager could keep them up with the current squad.

[Ratinho]

They should be preparing to try and come up stronger next season. Can't see how this'll help really.

[Herman Bloom]

Came up too soon. Think he said he hadn't spoken to the Chairman for three weeks or something? No idea who they think will do a better job mind.

[JK Galgreefe]

this is as mystifying as george and tom sacking rafa.

[Ter]

A bit harsh to be honest, but it would appear that his relationship with the chairman/board has gone downhill.

Derby came up too early and haven't been backed by cash. Giving him the job security and money to plan long term for being back in the Championship is the way to go.

[Terry Cheung]

If Watford had sacked Boothroyd would they be where they are now?

[Don Baker]

Good riddance to the fat ****** (if it's true).

[ericcantona7]

I thought he nearly left at the end of last season due to differences with the board, they are probably just taking the chance now to get rid of him while they can.

McClaren favourite to take over?

[gggg]

Probably for spending 4.5m on Earnshaw and never playing him but sticking with Howard who's clearly out of his depth.
