It was announced today that Doncaster Rovers have parted company with Paul Dickov. He was the boss at the Keepmoat Stadium from May 2013.
Some fans have reacted with delight at the sacking – after only one win from the six opening league fixtures:
DICKOV HAS GONE!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSS #drfc

Some were surprised that Dickov has been let go this early into the campaign:
Wow did not see that coming! #drfc — TEEZUS (@___TC) September 8, 2015
A large section of fans were happy with Dickov being sent packing, and are looking forward to a new era:
Definitely celebrating tonight!!! Goodbye Dickov! #useless #drfc

Some are even concerned about the temporary replacement for Dickov with more league games rapidly approaching:
Why is Jones taking over #drfc

There is even a small section who are in genuine disbelief at the dismissal:

Defender Rob Jones will take over the team ahead of their fixture against Walsall until a permanent replacement is found. Paul Dickov left the club with a win rate of 30.09%.
