It Was The Rain. Honest!

The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain. Poor Hugo.

Almeria  sacked their coach, Hugo Sanchez, on Sunday after a 2-0 defeat to Espanyol, but don’t go looking at the teams awful performance for the Mexican manager being booted.

Sanchez is not to be blamed for just 3 wins in 15 games, he is not at fault here….It was the rain! Damn you mother nature, ruining peoples lives with your evil weather!

Almeria lost 4-1 to Athletic Bilbao in a fixture Sanchez says played a key role in his demise…

 It never rains here and the day of the Athletic match it was bucketing down. They put three past us from set-pieces and we lost badly.” – Hugo Sanchez.

So it has nothing to do with the fact Almeria have lost 4 of their last 5 fixtures and have won just 3 times this season then?

Now, call me daft, call me crazy, but didn’t it rain on both teams? Or did the supernatural droplets fall on Almeria players only? Nice try Hugo, way to disguise your epic fail. Sanchez now has all the time in the world to enjoy his Milli Vanilli video.
