    Gary Caldwell

    Gary Caldwell sacked as Chesterfield manager. He was appointed in January but was unable to save the club from relegation to League Two last season. Today's 2-1 defeat by Accrington left Chesterfield in the drop zone with just one win in 10 games.

    Harry Redknapp also sacked by Birmingham City, he signed 14 players in the summer.

    Birmingham are a total basket case. Sacking Rowett to bring in Zola was madness.

    As for Caldwell, I read his interview during the week about losing the fans and he was practically begging to be sacked imo.

    "When Gary Rowett was sacked in December, they [Birmingham] had been seventh in the table". That was an amazing decision, compounded by the fact his replacement [Zola] had provided no evidence of being capable of doing a good job.

    He signed a pre contract for Celtic. He was one of the first to do it I think - Ian Murray and riordan followed him.

    I can't remember what he said in the papers but it pissed a fair few folk off, so much so that he was booed next game and made a couple of howlers on the back off it - vs Aberdeen iirc.

    Murray was the first, then the others over the next year.

    He was prone to howlers anyway, plus had an air of thinking he was a big shot. Wee things that you exaggerate if it's someone who leaves for Glasgow, basically.

    Plus he gave it big licks the first time he came back to play us.

    Caldwell did well for us. He never pretended he was anything other than the "pro footballer"..never implied he had fallen in love with our club. I recall before his last contract with us, he spent the summer trying to get a better deal elsewhere ...he went over to Holland, but didn't secure a deal, eventually signing for us just before the league started...That said, he largely performed well for us, and even after his pre contract with Celtic was one of our better performers..

    He might have been a dick when he left (can't really remember that though) but he was a good player for us and seem to remember him having some really good game playing in midfield despite him being a defender.

    Was a total roaster in the 3-2 game under Collins.

    Here's the link for anyone wanting to relive Borus' gift.

    Think that was his only contract? We had him on a loan deal while his contract ran down at Newcastle, then he touted himself, got nowhere, and came back. Think his first game as a bona fide Hibby was Vetra.

    Was a very good player for us. Don't have any issue with him.

    Was unlucky to get sacked by Wigan, but obviously did poorly in his latest job.

    Absolutely. Gave 100% for us & was excellent regardless of position he was asked to play in. Was outstanding in our LC semi win at RB versus original Rangers.

    He was being a fud that game but the fans, myself included, were winding him up from the start so don't hold it against him. I'm sure we all said much worse than he did so don't really feel we have the right to complain about the way he reacts.

    Was a good player for us in the day. Don't know anything about him as a manager.
