That is why he doesn't manage anymore. No one would hire him at this point.
That's not even "mutual agreement"
And you cant discuss with people who make things up. Brentford have an outstanding academy classified as Level 2.
Shockingly good statement:
Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the Club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties.
Ange joined us from Celtic in the summer of 2023 and oversaw a period of change on the pitch, returning us to the attacking brand of football that has traditionally been associated with the Club, while writing a new chapter in our history by leading us to UEFA Europa League glory in Bilbao last month - an achievement that will live with us all forever.
We are extremely grateful to Ange for his commitment and contribution during his two years at the Club. Ange will always be remembered as only the third manager in our history to deliver a European trophy, alongside legendary figures Bill Nicholson and Keith Burkinshaw.
However, the Board has unanimously concluded that it is in the best interests of the Club for a change to take place. Following a positive start in the 2023/24 Premier League (PL) season, we recorded 78 points from the last 66 PL games. This culminated in our worst-ever PL finish last season. At times there were extenuating circumstances - injuries and then a decision to prioritise our European campaign. Whilst winning the Europa League this season ranks as one of the Club’s greatest moments, we cannot base our decision on emotions aligned to this triumph.
It is crucial that we are able to compete on multiple fronts and believe a change of approach will give us the strongest chance for the coming season and beyond. This has been one of the toughest decisions we have had to make and is not a decision that we have taken lightly, nor one we have rushed to conclude. We have made what we believe is the right decision to give us the best chance of success going forward, not the easy decision.
We have a talented, young squad and Ange has given us a great platform to build upon. We should like to express our gratitude to him. We wish him well for the future - he will always be welcome back at our home.
News on the appointment of a new Head Coach will be announced in due course.
TBF he did have a few gigs later on. It's just at Spurs - ironically - he'd "never had it so good"
Of course not. Ange was clinging on for dear life to the best gig he will ever have.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...
Considering how Ange expressed himself after the season, absolutely no one would have believed that anyway.
Why bother to pretend when he made it so obvious he wanted to stay?
It never is really is mutual, it's just usually they pretend it is.
Fair.
Not in the news cycle! There's no such thing as a quiet time.
If they'd announced during the Trump vs Musk baby off yesterday then maybe but its transfer season and the whole football journo world is more desperate for stories as there is no actual football on.
Fair fucks to him though. He could probably see how poisonous the owners are and won something anyway. He at least gave us that. Even if he was in over his head in the prem.
