KENNY JACKETT LEAVES MILLWALL

Millwall confirmed that manager Kenny Jackett has left the club. Kenny had been in charge for five and a half years. Millwall had three trips Wembley under Jackett who also lead Millwall to a return to the Championship via the play-offs.

Goes down as one of the best Millwall Manager's Kenny Jackett


A statement on the Millwall website read this:


Millwall Football Club has today announced that Kenny Jackett has resigned as manager of the club. The Board of Directors has, with reluctance, accepted his decision.
Kenny stated: "After almost six seasons I personally feel the time is right for a new challenge, and also for a new manager to come into Millwall with fresh ideas, to take the club forward towards its long term goal of reaching the Premier League.
I would like to thank the Chairman, the Board of Directors, players, members of staff and supporters of Millwall for their considerable backing.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Millwall. My family and I will always have a strong link and affinity with the club."
Lions chairman John Berylson added: "On behalf of the Board of Millwall Football Club, I want to express my thanks to Kenny for his fantastic service and achievements over the past five and a half years.
He has played a major role in creating a stable environment at Millwall which hadn’t been the case prior to his arrival.
On a personal level, whilst respecting Kenny’s decision, I wish I could have persuaded him to change his mind. He was my first acquisition as chairman of the club and has proved himself to be one of the best. I am losing a great manager, but he will remain a good friend and hopefully, golf partner.
I know everyone associated with Millwall, management, staff, players and fans, will wish Kenny all the very best with his future endeavours, except for those times when he might oppose us on the pitch.
We are now determined to move the club forward and build on the foundations Kenny has provided towards even greater success."

Owen Coyle 7/1
Neil Warnock 7/1
Karl Robinson 8/1
Eddie Howe 8/1

FT REPORT: MANCHESTER CITY 1-0 TOTTENHAM

MANCHESTER CITY put Wednesday's Champions League disappointment behind them after beating Spurs 1-0 to put the pressure back onto Liverpool in the title race.  (C) Manchester City  City came flying out of the blocks right away. It didn't take long to get in front. Bernando Silva's cross found Sergio Aguero, who had too much space in the box and headed across goal for Phil Foden who headed in from close range after just five minutes.  That was Foden's first Premier League goal on his second ever Premier League start. City continued to create chances but failed to take them. Aguero thought he was in after being played through by Bernando Silva but he was flagged offside.  Paulo Ganzaniga came into the starting lineup as one of five Tottenham changes. He however, was looking fragile. He made a number of errors that only gave City confidence. Trying to chip the ball over a player five yards out was one of a number of things the keeper attempted that c...
