		Roland was too much Mr nice guy and the players played their hearts for out him during his probation period because they were quite happy to have him as boss.Once appointed they settled down to play as they wanted and not for the manager.
		Roland was up against it from the start.andnbsp; He has had virtually no money to improve the squad and has had to rely on the reserves and loan players while others eg Carsley were sold.
		I feel a little sorry for Nilsson as he seems to be a good bloke andamp; served us well as a player but he did not come across as dynamic enough to make the changes at City which are so obviously necessary and something drastic had to be done.

	The Scotsman - Sport - Nilsson and Smith are sent from Coventry
		Nilsson, 38, had been in charge at Coventry, who were relegated from the Premiership last season, since last September when he replaced Gordon Strachan, but now becomes the 42nd managerial casualty south of the border this season.
		Nilsson guided the club to five wins and a draw in the league during his spell as caretaker after the departure of Strachan, before his unbeaten run extended for a further five Division 1 games, finally ending with a 3-2 defeat at Millwall in November.
		Nilsson, who won 112 caps for his country as a defender, made his last appearance as a player in Coventry’s 4-0 defeat to Preston North End on 6 April and immediately vowed to hang up his boots.

		Roland was again instrumental in the Owls partial sucess, as he and his fellow defenders keep the opposition at bay.
		Roland showed what a true model professional he was during the FA Cup when he he played two games in less than 24 hours, Roland was asked to play for his country on the Wednesday in a World Cup qualifier, the day before the Owls FA Cup final replay with Arsenal.

		Roland was part of the legendary Owls team that managed to get to two cup finals in the same season (and unfortunately lose out on both occasion!) and also the team that went on a 'European Tour'.
		Such was Roland's determination, that he flew back from a World Cup qualifyer with Sweden to play for Wednesday in the FA Cup final replay with Arsenal.
		Roland returned to his homtown team at the end of the 1993-1994 season, and it's unlikely that Wednesday fans will ever see a player like him don the blue and white stripes again.

		Roland hasn't had what could be called "his team" but it was clear from the games that he had no tactical knowledge or insight to the players.
		I didn't think Roland was the man for the job when the old chairman gave him the job and I'm really glad Jim Smith's gone because I don't feel he is the man for the job either.
		I feel that the sacking of Roland Nilsson was a poor decision to make but i feel Jim Smith had to go.

		Probably the Owls' most successful foreign acquisition ever, Nilsson was an influential figure in Wednesday's successful side of the early 1990s before he moved to his beloved hometown club Helsingborgs in 1994.
		A surprise two-year stint back in England with Coventry City showed that, despite being in his 30s, he had lost none of his ability, and on his return to Helsingborgs last season he led them to their first league championship in 58 years.

	Nilsson wary of City
		ROLAND Nilsson believes that Coventry can afford no margin for error if they are to garner any points from Sunday's clash at Maine Road.
		And that is primarily the reason they occupy a place on the periphery of the play-off zone rather than being in the hunt for an automatic promotion spot.
		Nilsson is under no illusions about the size of the task his side face as they aim to become the only team since Wimbledon in September to take maximum points from a ground where City have won 16 times in all competitions this season.

	PREMIERSHIP PREVIEW
		At the same time, I think that Roland Nilsson has done a reasonable job, particularly for someone who suddenly found himself in a role he hadn't anticipated.
		I blame Smith more than Nilsson for the slump - I am sure that the bizarre formations are down to him, he brought in two inadequate ex-Derby players, and there appeared to be very little wrong with the Nilsson/Money/Clarke combination.
		Dave: Indeed - and you could now say, he appointed Roland Nilsson (at a time when he was desperate to take the heat off himself), he appointed Jim Smith (to the fury of the rest of the board) and they have now all gone.

		Our Achilles’ heel is Alexander Östlund and until now there has not been any alternatives but this weekend will Mikael Nilsson make a comeback in Panathinaikos and every Swedish fan cross their fingers that he will be the answer at our prays.
		If Mikael Nilsson fails to impress I think it would be a better idea to play with 42 year old legend Roland Nilsson who made some games for GAIS last year.
		So, his comeback was delayed for a week and today he was only subbed for the last 3 minutes, but he is not a natural defender anyway.
