My guess is that it is because him being told he will get little of the Milner cash to spend.
He did a good job there, not a clue who will replace him.

The first thing I think of when someone brings his name up is him walking onto the Ibrox pitch and putting his arm round Neil Lennon right after after he spat on a Rangers scarf and gave it to the Celtic fans. I'll never have any respect for the animal and pleased someone more worthy can get the job. Obv it's gonna be a toys/pram scenario over Milner who is an overrated player anyway, but I'm just surprised he never left a month back when the Liverpool job was free because we all know he's been sniffing about looking for it for years.  |

Think they'll go downwards in quality after this, Young might leave next season or something and they'll descend to mid table mediocrity.

Done a brilliant job there and it's a true shame he wasn't able to break into the top 4 with the squad he had, not much more he could do with the club other than seeing it safe and finishing top 8.
I also can't see who could take over and then do a good job, Martin Jol perhaps.

 His exit, reminds me of when Curbs left West Ham (obviously over transfer dealings). |

Would love to see him back at Celtic (Although I could say that for alot of people who left the club).

You can get 2/1 odds on O'Neill being the next England manager.

Where have you been  I'd put my money on Bob Bradley getting the job, only if I HAD to put it somewhere though.

Well he would've lost Milner and they're trying to flog Young to Spurs, so that's two of his best players gone. Maybe he just thought f*ck it. Done a brilliant job there and it's a true shame he wasn't able to break into the top 4 with the squad he had, not much more he could do with the club other than seeing it safe and finishing top 8. I also can't see who could take over and then do a good job, Martin Jol perhaps. If Jol could take another job (which he can't), he'd be at Fulham already. |

He did a great job there I thought, if he was given a bigger budget he could have maybe cracked that top 4, I wonder who will replace him now so close to the season starting....

I wonder who'll take over, my bet is Alan Curbishley or Chris Coleman. Knowing the prem though it'll be a foreign manager

Going to knock the Villa squads morale going into the season. On Sky Sports News someone had text in saying "I'm glad he's gone, let's get Steve McClaren or Phil Brown in"  . I literally LOL'd at this Villa fan thinking either of them could do a better job than what O'Neill has already done. |

Sounded totally serious the way he put it, saying they were both proven managers.

Top 3 to take over imo are Bob Bradley, Southgate or Bilic.
