Remember Charlton fans wetting themselves over him ..
his time at rangers was comparable to adkins, garner and holders stints here.
football management is mainly an instant results business. Haven't some fans set Appleton a points target and if he doesn't succeed, they are saying he should go?
Probably not some fans, but certainly this one fan.
Been in the job since Feb 2022, so long enough to get them competitive. Bradford at that level should be a top club, so baffling that so many minnows can get promoted ahead of them
I don't see what Sheffield United really expected to happen? I like the Archer and Hamer signings as players but selling Ndiaye in a really drawn out process and selling Berge was never going to help. Don't think heckingbottom is at all the problem and the owner needs to decide if he's actually going to sell up or not. Spent months messing around with a Nigerian bid that never had the funds.

Did that start with an email from a Nigerian prince asking them to send their bank details?
Eh? Won six, drawn one and lost four out of eleven games. 19 points from eleven games, so probably one defeat behind schedule for automatics. Unlike a lot of Charlton fans I have respect for Neil Harris, have also spoken to him and see him interact with other football people at U21 games. Speaking purely personally, had he been available I would have chosen him ahead of Appleton (Appleton has not been bad for us though, he has kept us in a holding pattern at least, and we hope he can achieve the points needed for automatics which is what I keep monitoring) and given the resources at Gillingham he has put some spark into them.

Could actually see that being more likely , if Gerrard actually stays anywhere long enough.
I hadn't realised Damian Matthew was one of Beale's coaches. He's had a decent career in the game.
Plus I'm very sad and found it funny that as my assistant we'd be Neil-Neil.

Get promoted, sold Ndiaye and then sold Berge to a relegation rival.
The Club has decided it now wishes to go in a different direction and will begin the process of identifying a Head Coach to take the team forward.
David Livermore will also be leaving the Club.

Gillingham have been playing some pretty turgid stuff though. 9 goals in 11 games.
Too soon?
That is a mad decision. Recent form WWWLDL and sacked.
He should have been sacked weeks ago & they should be on their 5th manager by now if they knew what they were doing.
