New owners are allowed to bring their man in. They finished 15th and their form was up and down under O’Neill. No surprise for me whatsoever. They obviously want a manager who can push them on.
We said the same about Hughton at Brighton though - if they can get the appointment right, it could absolutely rocket them up the league. When you have Burnley coming up and other teams turning it around, i think they have to take the gamble
Gary can always come back 10 games into the season if it falls apart. The PL is a 3 tiered league and AFC Bournemouth are tier 3. No disrespect but staying up is always going to be there mandate.
or smart thinking.... result will show. lots of team retain a managermcosmof what they did and not what they can do or are doing and it backfires. Only the future will tell but i never expected this
Think it depends on who they hire. They were statistically the worse club in the league, so arguable got lucky. But agree, they will probably get relegated
Unless you can come up with the actual reasoning used to sack him and find a replacement then you're reacting emotionally. Apparently the new appointment is made and it's Andoni Iraola. What are the factors to hire this manager including signings and other agreements?
If you were to grade Gary O'Neil performance at Bournemouth, its a 10/10. He achieved the absolute maximum for a club like that. When he took over they were odds on to be relegated
Bournemouth is gonna live to regret it and it’s the author of its own downfall! Gary O’Neil had a mediocre team with no budget, he kept the team up, what more could he have done?! This is absolutely sickening!
@@jamesftw1641yes, finally someone understands, we spent more than most, the 3rd highest spenders in Europe in the January transfer market spending 80 million, with the quality we brought in and got 39 points ehhh it’s poor
He was being touted by many as Prem Manager of the Season for keeping Bournemouth up. Disgraceful decision. Now I really hope they finish bottom & get relegated next season, which'd just serve the new know-it-all American owners right.
I think there is something more to this sacking that meets the eye!! It just doesn’t make sense from a footballing perspective! Unless Uncle Harry has put Frank’s name forward!😂 His leaving might not have anything to do with football matters!!
Madness theyve sacked him, he exceeded all expectations last season must be something going on behind the scenes or have a higher profile manager lined up - hope it backfires on them
Pretty much everyone had Bournemouth to finish dead last at the start of the season. Keeping them up was a huge achievement, potentially manager of the season. Ridiculous
Bournemouth will be one to get relegated for upcoming season ahead getting unknown manager to replace Gary O'Neil, who done his job by keeping them up yet sack him for it.
Conte to Bournemouth! 😂 I feel that this sacking is a bit harsh. Bournemouth weren't bad to watch at times. I had them slated to go down but they were pretty comfortable in the end. This is a decision that could come back to haunt them!
Gary O'Neil should have been manager of the season last year because what he did with a side Just battered 9-0 was remarkable. Feeling so sorry for him but another example of owners who know nothing with delusions of grandure
Bournemouth will be doing a leeds next season sacking managers left right and centre and before they drop down to the championship bring in big sam he is the man to make sure they go down
I remember when they sack nigel at leicester and they won the league...I remember when chris hutton was fired and graham potter took Brighton higher...lets see how this goes.
Wtf?? Why? I prefer his management style to Dyche's anyday. We at EFC would be proud to have such an up and coming young manager. What the hell has gone on here?
I'm more interested in who Bournemouth get as a replacement. A high profile manager with success is on the cards. Will Newcastle stick with Eddie Howe? Could he become available, or perhaps Benitez is currently unemployed. However it goes, I think it's a mistake to let Oneil go. Watch this space.
There is something we don't know; either gary has a new job lined up or more likely, bournemorth have another manager they see stronger about to step in. I certainly agree that this came out of nowhere and many had him up there with manager of the season based on the results he got out of his players in such a short time. Football these days is vicious.
Crazy that they sacked him after the job he done. Crazy that some Bournemouth fans are not shocked. Maybe you didn't have a great end to the season but with that squad he has kept you up. A squad he didn't spit together. Give him a chance to kick on
He will be a great manager somewhere else but for now he needs to focus on the criminal investigation and, if it comes to pass, the subsequent court case. Let's see what happens thereafter.
It makes no sense, had they a "big" name lined up then maybe but that is not the case. The reason they fired him is because the new owner clearly feels he is not a big enough name to draw in players and sponsors.
If you watched us play week after week, this isn't that much of a surprise. No identity or consistency, some great moments, but also some total dross. Feel sorry for him, but didn't feel like he would necessarily improve us past just 'staying up'. Gary leaves with his stock high - can get a Championship job for sure. Makes sense to do this now and not at Christmas.
Love re-visiting these old videos and reading all the knee-jerk reaction comments. The owner has a vision and was prepared to make a change to try and push the club forward. It was a tough start before everything started to click but over the past 25 games Bournemouth sit 7th in the PL form table and 20 points above the relegation zone.
Looking at this as an ex-pat from across the pond... reminds me of our situation at West Ham where at the end of last season we weren't doing well, only made qualifiers for Euro Conf Cup and it carried over into the beginning of this last season, losing games. Perhaps the boss at Bournmouth is looking at the end of this last season and doesn't want to see the team digging out of a hole early on in August/September. Writing on the wall kind of stuff.
I'm a carlisle utd fan , but I am sure he had them playing well last few months,, big surprise.. I think they made a bad decision here ,,, but time will tell. Good luck Bournemouth fans
It's disappointing given that Scott Parker said the team wasn't good enough, given the "owners" hadn't invested in the team. Then Gary O'Neil stepped in and kept them up.
I dont think losing to Everton help either. Forest Leicester and Leeds with Burnley saying Bournemouth threw the game. Gary did a fantastic job, He should have had a bonus or a new contract. Not the sack.
Those Bournemouth fans talking about whether O'Neil , Howe or anyone else are there till a certain point and then replaced by a certain manager on a higher level forget that like players, managers can progress over time as well. If O'Neil was kept and given the tools, then we'd know one way or the other - bemusing decision
Seems bonkers. Can’t help but think he must be the manager questioned by police over historical serious criminal offences. Doesn’t make any sense otherwise.
The owners have made the right call, I don't think O'Neil is an EPL manager; he has down well to keep them up. Just like when Nigel Adkins was sacked at Southampton, and Viera was sacked at Palace if the owners were not confident in their ability and quickly made the call to replace both managers.
Did they expect O'Neill to win the league? He did what was expected of him which was to stay up. He didn't do a Parker where he asked the club to bascially sack him.
Hopefully GON gets a job at a bigger club, it seems many fans of bigger clubs and pundits think he performed a miracle to keep Bournemouth up, so hopefully he joins one of their clubs. Good luck to GON, it's good timing for both the club and GON to part ways. UTC IAD
Wasnt there an accusation about a premier league manager the day before? Shouldnt speculate if these 2 are linked but seems a very strange sacking, something major must have happened.
It's only harsh because the remit he was given when he got the Bournemouth job was to keep them in the Premier League which he achieved. He has EVERY right to feel hard done by because realistically what MORE could he of done? I kind of hope they go down next season now as it would serve them right!!
Foley is doing what he has done in Vegas. The Vegas Golden Knights have had 3 coaches in 6 years, including their current coach, Bruce Cassidy. What you are saying about Gary O’Neil is what we have said about Gerard Gallant. Gallant coached the Golden Knights to the Stanley Cup Finals in their first year, was nominated for the Jack Adams award for best coach. But the Golden Knights lost in the playoffs the following year, and he was out. This is what Bill Foley does, he doesn’t care about loyalty, he will make moves if he thinks they are going to make the team win. It seems to work, as the Golden Knights won the Cup.
Although it seems harsh probably a shrewd move by the club. We cannot stand still and the owners are thinking longer term, losing our last 4 games did Gary no favours. He did a great job for us, we avoided relegation, but we don’t want this fight every season so things had to change, time will tell if it was the right decision. Good luck to Gary for the future, he will do well elsewhere.
B. just appointed Spanish coach Andoni Iraola, ex Rayo Vallecano who finished 11th last season with one notable win against Barca but otherwise nothing special...
The new manager is a darling of the football tactics community. Like De Zerbi. He's the kinda guy Pep will say glowing things about in his press conferences.
@Liam Wright took the worst out of my mouth, ex players and other managers constantly praising bielsa,yet he's won nothing at club level in over 30 years and after being ran out the door of every single club he's been at
I'm still scratching my head wondering why Bournemouth sacked Gary O'Neill.
That seems awfully harsh.
New owners are allowed to bring their man in. They finished 15th and their form was up and down under O’Neill. No surprise for me whatsoever. They obviously want a manager who can push them on.
Martin Keown has been scratching his head something awful as well, it looks like.
Due to criminal investigation apparently. Will take too much of his focus this year.

Poor decision but at least I think Gary O'Neil will be given a good shot at another job in the near future.
Hopefully a better one!
I speak for all Bournemouth fans that we are forever thankful to Garry but it’s the correct decision
Can we at Leeds get him

Gets even more shocking considering whom the hired instead -> Andoni Iraola (Andoni who?)

Don't worry... they'll go down next season for sure....so they'll get what they're looking for
Karma for the stupid Bournemouth owners will be going down next season
I hope the good Bournemouth players leave the club because everyone is wishing the stupid owners to get karma, aswell as me
@magnusfiskvik509 I mean he's not a bad manager it's just you don't sack someone who is doing a incredible job
Brendan Rodgers kicking tyres thinking "Christ almighty i could have got that job instead".
Instead of at some manky poor excuse of a club. Guy must be gutted!
Indeed. Bournemouth or a top 32 club in world football and the champions league group stage.
Tough one for Rodger’s? Grow up you twonk!
After keeping them up finished 15 they sack him crazy
O Neill is better off without them if that’s his reward for keeping them up when they were probably amongst the favourites to go down.

There are always some insane decisions like this that happen every season now. It's baffling.
Not at lot different to Palace and Viera/Hodgson. Also see Sheffield Wednesday at it as well
Ridiculous decision. Pep and klopp would have struggled in this job. You get what you deserve sometimes and Bournemouth will get relegated next season
