Their fans are delighted! Seems his demeanour didn’t go down well with them, but it’s a very brave decision by the chairman

Wow. Didn't see that coming. EDIT - the comments on their tweet announcing it are very familiar

No thanks, he obviously hasn't learned the lessons that led him to getting sacked here reading the Tranmere fans reactions to his sacking.

If a manager has got you to the playoffs and the fans are still asking for his head then you know something is up.

His play off record is crap, to be fair

Barnsley fans didn't take to him neither, found him too aloof.

Brave move.

Even here, where he achieved success, the fans got sick of him and his ego. Barnsley, Bolton & Tranmere fans all actively dislike him. I really hope our board don’t consider going for him.

If Bottomley survives the EGM he will probably bring him back in the sporting director role just to ensure the entire fan base is alienated.

Poll: Now the club has refused to move on sesaon ticket prices what will you now do?

Interesting timing. The Chairman there obviously has no confidence that Hill will set the team up to win in the play-offs. He must have pissed off a lot of people. Especially when his Points per Match at Tranmere is far better than at any other club he has managed. The other angle is that his contract was only for a year and maybe negotiations for a new contract either didn't happen or Hilly wanted more than Tranmere wanted to pay. So pushing away from the play-offs may make sense

But lets not be sorry for him. He's been paid off by 3 clubs in his 16 year managerial career so he won't starve. He isn't articulate enough for media work so he will land at a League Two club within a year I guess

Yes. 48 hours after giving him his full support in a club interview, prior to us losing at Luton, who were then top of the pile. I'm not saying the decision to sack him was wrong, but the manner in which it took place was shameful.

The only difficult thing is listening to Keith 'it's everybody's fault but mine' Hill.

Wasn't that how he left us, too?

I mean first time around. He told us he was 100% staying and committed to taking the club further, then 24-48 hours later he was off.

Oh Goodness I hope not.
As noticed , many of us, Barnsley, Bolton and now Tranmere fans alienated by his arrogance.
I really thought he would learn his lesson.
No way should he come back .

We've got enough problems without putting his ego in the mix......

He was on a loser with Tranmere fans from the start. They have some kind of rivalry with Bolton to start with which didn’t help, and the caretaker lads he took over from were doing a great job apparently and a lot of their fans wanted them to continue.

I did think it was likely he wouldn't have had his contract renewed/extended regardless what happened.

With Gary Bowyer choosing to leave Salford and return to his job with the U23's at Derby I wonder if there is any chance of him being in the running for the Salford Job.

What a complete and utter fall from grace, and from a position as (and remains as) our GOAT manager

The rot seemed to set in around 2016/17, a couple of seasons after his second promotion with us and when he had us riding high in L1 and competing for the playoffs for a third season running - although there were warning signs prior to that with some of his comments. It was probably the long contract extension and seemingly untouchable position within the club... so in a way, it was that decision which led onto the changes in the boardroom and to where we are today; plus the lack of support for CD in his attempt to return

Contract extensions haven't exactly paid off in recent years have they.
