I'm sure there must be a high correlation between "3 managers in a season" and relegation. We've done it twice for a start - Dowie, Reed, Pardew and Luzon, Fraeye, Riga.
True but to be fair you're not really likely to need 3 managers in a season unless you're doing really badly and therefore obviously going to be relegation candidates.
League One strugglers Morecambe have reappointed Derek Adams as manager, less than nine months after he left the club to join Bradford City. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60506755

Conte is ready to walk away from Tottenham apparently
Let's hope that happens and the "three manager curse" strikes the Spuds. Relegation this year would be a tough ask but I'll accept it happening next year.
Never considered Conté to be a quitter .. turns out he might have a lot in common with the WW2 Italian army tanks .. 4 reverse gears and 1 forward in case they were attacked from the rear
Couldn't have a manager who had to speak through an interpreter. We have enough problems with players trying to understand what Jackskn's trying to do, let alone 2nd hand through someone else.
Bielsa was being paid a reported 8 Million a year at Leeds .. when I saw them play us at the Valley 2/3 years back, he spent all his time sitting on his blue bucket like a Latin Buddha while his many assistants shouted instructions to the players .. there were four of them all pointing and gesticulating in different directions, that could be why they lost .. Gallagher's first goal for us as well if I recall

Your aware he speaks English to the players right?
I mean this may be a whoosh but it is a very common misconception around that he can't speak English, he speaks decent English.
The interpreter is there for interviews as English is not his first language and he knows what the English press is like and he doesn't want anything he says turned around against him, so he prefers to speak in his own language with the use of the interpreter.
I actually find that's a clever way of doing it, press can't miss quote you then.

I wasn't aware of that. It might make sense but I still think if he's English is good enough for the players then urs good enough for the press. We have many foreign coaches & I dont know many who are misquoted or misunderstood.

Feels a bit like when Dave Jones went to Hartlepool
Question if he has the right approach for League Two Football at that level.
Epitome of an old fashioned managers whose methods have stopped working, and who is on the decline.
All but one of his playing season were at the top flight, ditto his club management career has all been in the PL.
A longish term project too, seeing that it's almost certainly too late for a promotion push this season

When's Bowyer returning to take Charlton over again

I'd take him!
Sad news, but his refusal to change his style was getting ridiculous.

They've shipped a lot of goals last season and this, their fans must worry that they have to score at least two to get a draw at best.
