    Looks as though Shrewsbury are resigned to losing Paul Hurst as they're looking to get in the Livingston Manager

    Good to see its new names being thrown about yet stick to the fact that getting a Scottish Manager down in the lower leagues can seriously bring its risks - Derek Adams (Plymouth) is one of the few I've known to be successful

    You don’t know what you are missing, getting slapped around the face by a bishop.

    Sounds like you got off mildly if that’s all it was.

    Lampard has been appointed Derby Manager...

    Good luck to him, as a pundit too he's not one of those who has dithered over taking their first steps into Management

    Big move for him. He has his A Licence I believe too. Always amazes me how they're allowed to do those so quickly when you're not even allowed to do Level 2 unless you coach a team regularly.

    Just read that Jody Morris (Chelsea U18s) will be his Assistant Manager

    Thats a very inexperienced double act... I know we've just had Bowyer and Jackson yet the Championship is a lot harder than League One

    I was gonna tip Shrewsbury to go, they're only 9/2 on Bet365 though, seems pretty stingy for the club that finished 3rd last season. Fleetwood to be relegated at 7/1 seems like a generous price for any side that's managed by Joey Barton.

    Inexperienced at the top level yes but Morris has had a very successful time in charge of Chelsea's youth team. Although to be fair i guess with the players they have it's probably not that difficult to win things.

    Wonder what Sol Campbell's thoughts are on Lampard getting the Derby job.

    yeah 4/1 on skybet, for the 1st time in year charlton currently are not priced.

    cardiff, shrewsbury, millwall relegation treble could be a shout :wink:

    I expected Pocchetino to leave Tottenham this summer before he signed a new contract. Maybe all this was pre planned & will mean Spurs get more compensation if he goes to Real Madrid? I wouldn't rule it out. Levy is a very shrewd man!

    Like Thomas Christiansen?

    - Hire a local manager
    - Replace him with an exciting continental coach, who will take you to the next level
    - Sack him when it all goes wrong. Bring in a local manager to sort it out

    and repeat

    Marco Silva confirmed as the new Everton manager.

    Lampard confirmed as the new Derby manager.

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/6421600/laurent-blanc-chelsea-maurizio-sarri/

    Laurent Blanc has leaped ahead of Maurizio Sarri in the race to replace Antonio Conte as Chelsea boss.

    Former France and Paris Saint-Germain chief Blanc is now the new front runner for the role after the Blues developed cold feet over Sarri’s controversial past.

    The Chelsea hierarchy have become aware of Sarri’s homophobic row with new Italy boss - and ex-Manchester City manager - Roberto Mancini.

    Sarri, who left Napoli last week, clashed with then-Inter boss Mancini during a Coppa Italia tie last season.

    A furious Mancini revealed afterwards: "The confrontation on the touchline? You have to ask Sarri about that.

    “He is a racist. People like him do not belong in football. He used racist words.

    “I stood up to ask about the five minutes being added on and Sarri shouted ‘poof’ and ‘faggot’ at me. I would be proud to be that if he is what’s considered a man.”

    Chelsea have made zero tolerance of racism, sexism and homophobia a major club commitment in recent seasons.

    That has seen interest in the 60-year-old Sarri cool and given Blanc the chance to rise up the list.

    sacked a club legend & ex-player in Rowett & replaced by an ex Prem player who has never managed a club & wouldn't know the Championship if it bit him on his arse. I bet the Rams fans are pleased.

    Derby never sacked Gary Rowett. He asked to speak to Stoke when the vacancy came up and he walked when he was offered the job.

    Once a manager asks to speak to another club he is as good as gone anyway so get rid.

    Strange if they go for Blanc. Was impressive at Bordeaux and won 11 trophies in 3 seasons at PSG but has been out of management for 2 seasons, so why has no one else gone for him?
    I thought Chelsea would've gone for Luis Enrique.

    What, starting once they'd paid off Eva Carneiro and John Terry had left?

    "We don't allow racism, sexism or homophobia... starting... Wait, Graham Rix isn't still here is he? No? Good. Starting... NOW!"

    "Laurent Blanc prime candidate for Chelsea job with Avram Grant in running if search for new boss remains a struggle"

    I would love it if Chelsea sack Conte only to get Avram Grant back in.
