Karanka sacking: How football fans - and Ryanair - have been reacting on Twitter

Here are some of their comments.

Massively conflicted by the #Karanka sacking. Had to go after recent performances but so many happy memories as well #UTB #weshallovercome

#Karanka going is right decision, arguably made too late.Awful at people management & tactically 1 dimensional. He has a lot to learn #boro

AK did a great job in the Championship but he was taking us straight back down without a fight. Just not sure who we get now. #Boro #UTB

Thank you @Karanka for everything you have done for us. You will go down as one of the greats. All the best for the future boss #UTB #boro

I wonder who will replace #Karanka at #Boro. I hear a certain #EPL winning Italian manager has recently become available... #Ranieri

Huge credit to Karanka, I'm one of his biggest fans and he's done a great job but the time is right for a change. @oneboro #boro

Always liked Aitor but something had to change. His achievements shouldn't be forgotten but onwards and upwards #UTB #Boro 🦁

Timing is right to sack #karanka - no one expects us to beat Man Utd, then international break before games against peers #boro

Genuinely sad to see AK go, but correct decision. There'll always be Brighton, those cup games and many, many others. Good luck to him #boro

And finally ...

Need to get back to #Madrid? Fly from Newcastle Airport from £21.99. Haway one-way.... https://t.co/RbEOvKaQAj #Karanka #Boro pic.twitter.com/jrwVEtv7DR
