http://www.dispatch.com/crew/crew.php?story=dispatch/2004/11/02/20041105-E3-06.html Said our much maligned coach: "after a couple days of consideration, it's time to move on to new opportunities. I believe that this team has the potential to win championships, I wish them luck, and thank the fans of Columbus for their many years of support." We're free!
This news obviously will make my weekend, er scratch that, make my year! To bad I have two hours until I leave work and can crack open some beers.
Can it be true for you guys finally? Has Sigi been seen going into Crew headquarters, or was there just a 10$ buffet? I personally hope it's true. You guys definitely deserve better. There's been too much talent in Columbus for the trophy cabinet to contain no MLS Cups. Of course, I'm a DC fan. This is unhappy news for us.
I got the link to work, but I'm a subscriber, do you have a name and password that works on the new version of their site?
worked for me, Hang, did you get in using the pass and name I sent? Apparently when dispatch went to subscription again yesterday they put in new info that you had to fill in. I got it to work. Let me call Hang and see if it worked.
When I hit the link Zak gave us, all I get is this: Error accessing story. (Includer Error #1) Is this some sort of prank? If so, ha-ha, you get me. Good on 'ya...
I'm telling you, it worked when I posted the article. Still trying to reach Hang to see if he got it up.
Maybe Greg finally read the "Fire Andrulis" Thread. So whats ol' Dooley up to.....seems like a good fit for a coach......at least the "nowak type"
There is nothing on either the Crew or MLS sites (not that that would be huge surprise). So if this is serious please post the article or link that works. My vote for a new coach is either Harkes or Brian Bliss.
No more juvenile than pulling this prank on us. Zak, if this real, please go back and cut-&-paste the whole article and let us just read it.
If this is not true I would like to send a big "up yours" your way. If it is true, then you shall be my hero for the rest of the year.
Oh, I bet that's what pushed him over the edge. Why step away from a coaching where there's no pressure to succeed? Yeah. I'm sure he stepped down. Whelp, I'm always up for a little TPing..
I don't want him to quit. I want him fired. Sacked. Given ten minutes to clean out his desk. Turn in his key to the nice restroom. I want him to walk out to his car carrying a copy paper box filled with his photos and coffee mug and take one last look at our beloved stadium which he will never again sully with his incompetence as he pulls out of the parking lot one last time for that long commute home to his beloved wherever the hell it is, wondering what he's going to say to his wife. I would prefer that we had one of those "Dreyfuss" moments - Ja'cuse! - where he has to stand in front of the assembled Crew world and have the logo ripped off of his size XXXXXL clothing. Maybe shave his beard too. Is this asking too much?
