Cannot see the point of keeping on for two more games, basically he's been got rid of because he is n't good enough and if he had had anything about him , he'd have walked 18 months ago. Hallelujah, but what happens if he wins the next two games, stranger things have happened.
PS. Brummie I think you have gone soft - those four georges must have gone to your head.
So there'll be no more sitting around at home for you on Saturday afternoons from now on then Brother Kenneth?

His comments in that article are excellent. Things had become stuck a long time ago and unfortunately change needed to happen. I say unfortunately because reading the article it is clear that John Hill loves Halesowen. Despite my criticisms over the last few years, I am sure that if he finds the right club, John Hill will do a very good job somewhere like he did during our promotion season. I wish him the best for the future

Absolutely fantastic article. Full credit to John for his honesty and obvious passion for the club. I too hope wherever pastures new are that he makes a success of it.

Six years is a long time in any job so there is obviously some emotion there. I also think he won’t be able to manage a club of Halesowen’s level or stature again. I think the league below is about his level and sure like you say he will do well given the opportunity somewhere else.
It’s a shame things had to turn somewhat sour with people boycotting, the falling attendances and the atmosphere on Tuesday for the owners to listen. I think ideally he should have gone at the end of last season once he had kept us up. That would have been the right time to go, and then would have left on a more positive note.

You can talk about sleeping giants but with the people involved off the field now, the right person coming in could be sitting on something big.
This is bang on. We are a much better club than one who is consistently scrapping against relegation, and the players we have had and currently have are better than that. We are a bigger club than our attendances suggest. We should be attracting much higher attendances than we have done under Hill's reign. Hopefully the new manager brings with him a positive attitude that can get this club back to where it should be. On and off the pitch.

In fairness, that's a good parting message. Fair play to John for that. It's nice to hear him talk up this great club and the clear potential we have. It's good to hear.
