We asked for your views on Oxford United’s decision to sack head coach Des Buckingham.
He leaves the club after leading them to promotion from League One last season -but they are just one point above the Championship’s relegation zone.
Oxford fans have been reacting to the news and you can share your thoughts as well.
Here are some of your comments:
XV – Terrible decision. League one squad and not in bottom three. 99.9% of Oxford fans will be aghast.
Peter – Utterly Disgusting Decision! Des is Yellow and Blue through and through! No clue in the boardroom! Even if we’d gone down he should have been given the chance to get us back. I Am Fuming!!!!! Thank you Des and any club should be grateful to get you!
Georgia – Come on. We’ve beaten one team since September and they are currently bottom of the league. The QPR performance was desperate and Saturday was nearly as bad. With Des at helm, we were certs to go down. It all depends who comes in now. Ownership have made good managerial appointments in the past and are still throwing money at the ‘project’ so let’s not throw toys out of the pram just yet.
Simoon – It’s happened. Best wishes to you Des. Going forward an experienced head coach and a few new players that can compete in the Championship may just keep us there. COYY!
George – Madness – got us to where we wanted to be. It was always going to be a battle to stay up but he deserved to see it through and he understood the club and the supporters
