Okon gone

[Timmah]

This from Gatty on Twitter around 2:30pm today


Giving it a new thread so it's not buried 8 pages into a speculation thread.

Coincides with Charlesworth flying in from Europe. Wow.

Effective immediately is the most surprising. Thought he'd see out the season for sure.

Interim coach? (Jolic seems logical but I'd rather not). Or is there someone lined up already?

Feel sorry for Okon on a personal level. And I do think he'll be a coach one day.
But for now I am very happy about this. The team, the club, the supporters need it.

 

[LFCMariners]

Great.

We're a decent chance at beating SFC this weekend now, and considering recent form for them, the timing couldn't be better.

Time to move on:

haha, meant to write 'good coach one day'. but the line as it is holds water really

If he gets the Sydney FC job after the abysmal coaching record he has... Wow I can't even fathom it. He has failed at every single coaching post and seems to just get more and more opportunities.

Talk about being kissed on the dick.

 

[Blackadder]

Quit??

Probably told Charlesworth he needed to spend money, and Charlesworth said No.

 

[priorpeter]

KBYEEEEEEEEEEEEE!



(Feel sorry for him on a professional level and wish him well in the future - not against us - but he should have gone some time ago.)

I hope he does go to Sydney. Be nice to know exactly how to beat them each and every single game

Given he and Jolic were a package deal I can't see Ivan staying around.

SOS Hutch?

Obviously more to come as it’s fresh news but jumping first or pushed it doesn’t matter.

He just didn’t fit our club. No fight, scared of club legends.

He could be an ok coach with more funds but it would be the players carrying him not the other way.

Good bye and good luck but very happy he is gone

that's a harsh photo to use on his quitting article (even though I used the exact same one to take the piss)

Jolic won't be staying. The next coach will see to that

 

[Big Al]

Sully surely just for the last couple of games as can’t see Jolic hanging around and he doesn’t seem to be a guy who wants to be a head coach hence Paul hired him

 

[Gratis]

oh god, not Sully!

 

[scottmac]

I've got a bad feeling about where this is going to go. World game saying that he refused a number of conditions in regards to a contract extension. This might be more MC f**king with our club than getting rid of a under performing coach. I'm scared that this is going to blow up and we're going to look even worse than we do now.

 

[greenlig]

Feel sorry for Shaun and co, it's going to be a rough couple of weeks.

Sir Alex at the height of his powers ,couldn’t make the squad the Mariners have into a Championship winning team.
