Betis has sacked Pepe Mel, and Juan Carlos Garrido will take over.
Dispite having achieved only 2 out of the last 24 points, having lost the derby against Sevilla by 4-0 and being last placed in La Liga, this is a pretty big surprise. Betis fans love Mel (infact there has been a huge uproar this afternoon, with the ultras trying to barge into the stadium), and the team wasn't paying that bad (they have been very unlucky though... this weekend they played well against Rayo and were winning until they conceded the draw in the 93rd minute).
Betis is regarded in Spain as a fun/nice team, so I wish them the best... but it's a bit dissapointing to see a nice guy like Mel being replaced by Garrido. Let's see what he can do... the squad is good enough for a mid table finish, although that might be a bit too much considering their current situation and the fact they are also playing EL.
GF Betis, be ready for a very very rotating system.
