Avram Grant sacked

Oh when the KGB come knocking at the door,
Because you've stolen all your money from the poor,
When the Kremlin get your number,
Chelseas going undeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrr.....
When the KGB come knocking at the door.

We'd all like to take out bank loans and buy some thing for peanuts, take billions out of it and then sell it for a 1500% profit

Nice song, completely accurate apart from the fact he is one of Putins stooges and the KGB don't exist anymore, well not by that name anyway, other than that great song

My own view on his sacking is that he was never more than a stop gap, why he was given a new contract as manager though is beyond me?

I know none of it's true, i just find it funny and it usually winds up some Chelsea fans but it didn't seem to have worked this time.

Why was he hired in the first place? Surely a club like Chelsea would be able to lure a manager from most clubs, unless they really wanted Rijkaard. I think the whole way they have handled it has been really bad, especially because they gave him a 3-year contract earlier on in the season which tells me that they think second place in the league by two points and Champions league runners up on a penalty shoot out isnt good enough. It seems Abramovich wants constant success which he wont get by constantly changing the manager.
