A cardboard cut-out might have made a better fist of it this season

As you well know, Jose Mourinho was sacked by Chelsea on Thursday afternoon, thus bringing his second stint at the club to a rather unceremonious conclusion.

After being let go by Roman Abramovich, Mourinho was left to clear two-and-a-half years’ worth of detritus out his office at Cobham and the specific two items he was said to retrieve for posterity really do boggle the mind.

According to the Daily Mail‘s timeline of events, Mourinho took his final training session with his players at 10:30am, enjoyed pulling crackers with his staff at Chelsea’s silver-service Christmas lunch at 12pm and was then called into a meeting by Abramovich and canned at 2:00pm.

Weirdly enough, it’s then reported that the freshly fired coach collected his personal effects, “including his life-sized cardboard cut-out of himself and ‘Special One’ mug” at 3:00pm before being “bundled out of Cobham in his chauffeur-driven Jaguar with a blanket over his head” at 4:00pm.

Amazingly enough, we managed to source some exclusive footage of that final hour…
