"We've been talking to Darije for the last few weeks about what he wanted to do next year and we came to the conclusion that there was no way the club and Darije were going to agree on a few important aspects that Darije wanted to continue with or changes at the club he wanted to make. So we agreed it was best for both that we go our separate ways."

In terms of the decision to appoint Kalezic in the first place - a coach who had been sacked from four clubs in five years before arriving at the Phoenix - Dome said, in hindsight, it may have been a mistake."It's one of those things. You don't always get all these decisions right. We'll take that on the chin and say it didn't work out in this particular instance and we have to look forward now.

same old rhetoric with no substantial indication they will make the right changes.

Domes comments are clueless as usual. Why is he criticising a company employee in public?  Why tell the media what he plans to do, just do it man, and tell us what you have done. Why join in useless media discussion about who may and may be the next coach? Just get on with it, man up.

Actually, I do not see much evidence of "criticising the employee in public" in the above.

I would guess (no real proof) that the differences are known to both parties. No I would not expect them to be aired like dirty laundry for all to see, including the anti-football trolls on Stuff. Yes I would expect these differences to be made known  to the club members like ourselves, as long as we paid our membership money.  I would expect the club to wish Darije well on his next gig, and not torpedo his chances by talking details.

Anything more than that, especially while Darije is still here, would be unprofessional in my view.  A bit like making it known why you're separating from your chosen one that was supposed to be with you like forever, for want of a better example.  You would not be telling all and sundry all the details as to why it is over, especially when you're still amicably talking the details over with your ex-dearest, and seeing each other every day, possibly still under the same roof..
