Ipswich ... four managers in one season. Beacuse of me.

I am currently playing as Norwich and just got into my second season.

Well, local rivals Ipswich apparently hate me at the moment. After defeating Ipswich at Portman Road, they fired their manager at the time (Jim Magilton? I'm unsure who) after we won 2-0. Bloody great I thought, beat our rivals and get their manager sacked.

Well, a week before the return game they sacked their manager again. Two days before then, their caretaker manager (one of their youth coaches) was appointed full time manager. Bring around a 4-1 thrashing at Carrow Road and he lasted only two days in the job!! I believe the shortest management reign I've ever seen in FM. Bloody brilliant!!!!!

Haha, nothing better than getting a rival boss sacked.

Except doing it twice

It was the fact the second guy was given two days and his only game was against us. I suppose starting off with a team in turmoil and getting thrashed by your rivals 4-1 is a BAD idea.
