I hate including caretakers in these stats.1

And unfortunately modern fans are as much a problem in this as anything else. So many calls for managers to just be replaced after a couple of bad games. I wish clubs would stick with managers longer.Addick Addict said:

Any club that ends up with 3 managers in a season deserves to go down.4 -
Kevin Nugent is one of the best managers we have ever had.1

Especially as the "21" for Charlton includes Bowyer and Jackson (twice), so double/treble counting themMrOneLung said:I hate including caretakers in these stats.0 -
The issue with excluding them is that, on occasions, caretaker Managers last less time than permanent ones - Les Reed, for example, lasted less than six weeks as Manager whereas Johnnie Jackson served longer than that as a caretaker before he was appointed permanent Manager. Equally, should we discount his period as caretaker because it didn't count?MrOneLung said:I hate including caretakers in these stats.
For the record though this is the full list with those in bold permanent - that is still an average of a permanent Manager a year for the last 17 years. Curbs served for almost 15 years prior to this "run":Dean Holden 22 Dec 2022 to date

When caretakers manage for a while then get made permanent, that to me counts as one managerial period, not two. The same thing happened with Bowyer, who was caretaker for ages.
Managers who are clearly only caretakers for a brief period until someone else gets appointed fall into a slight no mans land, as it would be silly to ignore Hodgson's current spell at Palace for example because he was just a caretaker, ditto Warnock at Huddersfield.0 -
Grant McCann is apparently going back to Doncaster Rovers

In other words, Levy offered him the job, JN told him to get knotted, now Donna Cullen (Spurs' Head of Comms) has leaked to the media he was never a contender.ForeverAddickted said:

Surely their board will look at the number of points they got and take that into consideration. Has a team ever finished 3rd on 96 points before?golfaddick said:Darren Moore might be free next week.
I think that sacking him will be very very harsh

It's not always about points/performance/position- it can be a breakdown of working relationships between manager and board.
