    Benitez has been sacked at Everton 
    Was a stupid appointment in the first place 
    Occasionally very successful people make such mind-boggling decisions that you wonder how they ever became successful and this was one of those for me right from the very start. Their owner is a self made billionaire I believe so clearly must have a degree of intelligence yet how on earth he felt this appointment would work is beyond me. Bill Kenwright is still heavily involved in the running of the club by all accounts so surely he must have told the owner very strongly how his appointment would go down with fans and yet he still pressed ahead. Perhaps when you become very successful a degree of arrogance takes over as the appointment was very clearly driven by the owner personally.

    Ironically many people said Rafa's appointment might tarnish his reputation with Liverpool fans, if anything he has actually enhanced it!

    The crazy world football is though it wouldn't shock me at all if he was back in charge at Newcastle before the end of the season. If Howe doesn't start picking up results quick I could see their owners getting trigger happy.

    Surprised Dyche is not on that list. Cannot imagine he is wanting to go back to the championship. Probably don’t want to pay a transfer fee for a manager.
  • I personally think they should go all out for Potter - he could definitely work his magic there. 
  • I don't know what involvement Benitez has had in transfer dealings, but he's dropped and sold Digne and brought in 2 players in this window already
  • If I was Martinez, why would I leave the Belgium job in a World Cup year?

    The suggestion is that he would be an interim Manager at Everton AND still manage Belgium as they don't have many fixtures coming up in the next few months. If it works out in that six months then one would assume that he will become permanent at Everton and vacate the national job. The Belgium FA aren't totally comfortable with this though.

    Especially as the World Cup is next November. How can Martinez and Henry concentrate on the National side, checking players and opposition etc when managing a PL club for 10 months?

    Take the Everton job for more money, get sacked and paid off and still go to the world cup

    It is only a six months contract on offer and by that I suppose the reality is that it is only to the end of this season. There is an international break in March and then the Nations League after the season here in June

    Probably because the Belgium glory team has come and gone and won nothing, they are not gonna win the world Cup and if they get embarrassed he could harm his chances of a prem job.

    He knows Belgium are on a downward spiral so leave now and take the prem job whilst it's on offer

    While the team is perhaps slightly past their best, they can still do very well in the World Cup.

    Why give that up to take over a mediocre Everton side? I could understand it more if it was a "Big 6" club like Arsenal or Spurs

    I know it wouldn't be easy but to be honest managing in the premier league is probably the perfect place to check out players.

    De Bruyne, Lukaku, Tielemans, Benteke, Trossard, Castagne, Origi.

    And then the old guard like Courtois, Hazard, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Mertens etc probably don't even need checking as they'll get picked regardless.

    You could manage Everton's game on a Saturday and then fly off to France/Belgium and watch a game on a Sunday. Or vice versa.

    Tough but not impossible for a few months, then he leaves Belgium after the world cup.
  • Bromley have received a request from Gillingham to talk to Andy Woodman
  • Didn't the Everton fans not like him when he managed them last time ?

    They liked him for the first season or so but by the end there were protests especially about the sides inability to defend. A lot did like him as a person and the football he tried to play but most don't want him back now.

    The irony is that he had a net spend during his tenure of £46m. In the years since they've had a net spend of over £300m and bough some real rubbish in the process - and are now lower than when he left them.
  • I personally think they should go all out for Potter - he could definitely work his magic there. 
    They would have to barge the FA out if the way first. 
    He is the heir apparent.

    Think they are hoping to just keep Southgate.

    One final and two semi finals if you include the Nations League, nice guy, no controversy or fuss, he's the FA's dream.

    Gillingham planning for life in League 2.
  • On Saturday's Quest show they mentioned Andy Woodman as a likely target. It's interesting how he's moved on from just being a goalkeeping coach to being a manager

    He seems to have flirted between the two. He started as assistant Manager at Rushden and Diamonds then spent his time following Pardew round at West Ham as coach and then with us and then at Palace as keeping coach. He then had a short stint as Manager of Whitehawk and keeping coach at Arsenal before taking the Manager's job at Bromley. One would assume that he got his full coaching badges but specialised as a keeping coach given that was the position he knew most about and probably opened more opportunities for him to be at a bigger club. Plus of course he was best mates with Pardew so he could, potentially, invent a position for him!

    Something I hadn't noticed is that Kevin Phillips has become manager at (7th tier) Northern Premier League side South Shields, his first managerial role after a few coaching positions. 

    A very low level to start at.
