The Midlander: Thorn sacking is one of many best decisions by Coventry

YEah, I feel the same really. A lot of fans wanted him as he did well in those 8 games. I've got no real problem with him.
This whole 'was pissed whilst taking training' thing that people seem to keep bringing up. Is this factually known by these people or a rumour that has gone a little too far. If no substance behind their claims its not a very sensible thing to suggest in a public forum I'd guess.
Wonder if he still holds training sessions smashed off his face ?
Beginning of this thread, as well as numerous other ones.
Whose brought the 'pissed whilst training' allegation up, as I hadn't seen it until you posted it?
I just didnt rate him as in my humble opinion he was sh*t, totally and utterly.
No normal owners would have employed the fat lazy turd in the first place.
Is that a libel against the owners of Kidderminster or Andy Thorn or both?
Anyway he got the job, so good luck to him.

Was never really a fan of Thorn but it's a bit of a shit thing to do suggesting he has a drink problem if they don't know if its true or not. Having said that, the poster may well know for fact that its completely correct I'd happily hold my hands up and apologise.
You will be holding your breath on that one I asked at the time.
Not a shred of evidence
I agree sad thing to do
Looking at a picture of their chairman I can see why he got the job. The chap now has someone he can go to the all you can eat buffet with.

Square peg, round hole....not what we needed at that point in time. His tenure was an unmitigated disaster for the club, as he was clueless as ****.
Sure Midlands Today just said he's been scouting for England since being sacked by us!
Thorn has been part of England manager Roy Hodgson's scouting team preparing for this summer's World Cup in Brazil.
I, for the record, have never accused him of this.
You used to say that he never bothered turning up for training sessions which was also unsubstantiated.
I take it you were not implying this was due to the other unsubstantiated bollox that he cancelled sessions because he was pissed?
No I never said that either. I said one thing once in a forum discussion with one other poster (gaz I think) regarding a rumour and said categorically it was not substantiated. I don't think I ever said he didn't turn up for a training session.
Well a couple of threads yesterday went well off topic and ended up discussing my favourite (or should I say least favourite) subject.
Many will know my views on thorn. Inept beyond belief, defeatist, clueless, lacking any motivational ability and utterly incapable of communication. He is, beyond question, the worst manager this club has ever had born by the fact be is now unemployed and will never again be employed in football.
Yet, and yet the adulation he received by many on here is far more than given to Pressley and robins. Thorn wasn't a cheap option - he was a caretaker for 11 games and had a mediocre points total in that time. The fact is that if he them hadn't been given the job full time there would have been uproar. He was compared to jimmy hill, its the best football seen in decades, he's the man who can spot a player - a master talent.
The truth is with a real manager in charge we would probably have survived. A real manager had to be worth more than 10 points. The first half of the season completely finished us.
Can someone, anyone, explain how people were so badly wrong in their judgement regarding this utterly clueless individual.
Now people will say why dredge this up. Fair enough but this to me is worthy debate as I think in decades to come two things will be big talking points - how the club ended up in Northampton and how an unqualified inept buffoon managed to get away with being so popular when he was the worst manager in the clubs history.
