  • Slightly surprised they made the decision so early. If they lose badly to Leeds tomorrow, it will be questioned.

    Curle must be in the running for 'the most sacked manager who keeps getting jobs' award

    Looks like one of the coneheads in that picture

  • That photo of Appleton made my phone crash. He's after the operating system job.
  • Karl Robinson sacked by Oxford.

    Calling the replacement now, in all seriousness:

    Karl Robinson sacked by Oxford.
    Knee jerk reaction to being just 5 points off relegation. 

    The fact that 4 teams HAVE to go down each League 1 season so I don't know what owners expect. I have no idea if they spent any money in the summer/January but if they hadn't then it's to be expected.

    Not a knee jerk reaction at all: 

    0 wins in 8 games with 1 point during that period. 

    Fans favourite Matty Taylor allowed to leave to a L1 rival. 

    Fans had turned on Robbo, lots of abuse in the ground and online.

    0-3 defeat at home to an equally poor form Gas yesterday suggested he had lost the players.

    Robbo's post match quote:"the last two months have been as bad as I've had in my career and some of the performances certainly haven't been good enough.It hurts. It hurts me, it hurts the players and equally I know it hurts the fans."

    All in all just about the most predictable sacking of the weekend I'd say. It's been coming.

    Liam Fox has left his role as Dundee United head coach after five months by mutual consent following Saturday's humiliating defeat by Ross County.

    Fox, who stepped up from assistant to replace Jack Ross in September, had been in permanent charge for just 22 matches, winning just six and drawing three.

    Watford have sacked their Manager. Has this happened before?

    And in a nano second they have replaced Bilic with Chris Wilder. Their 17th Manager in 10 years. Mind you, we aren't too far off that!

    Amusing that Luton, where Rob Edwards moved to, are 6 points above Watford at the moment

    Wilder is Watford's 10th manager since 2019. They've had the same amount of managers since 2012, as West ham have had in their entire history!

    Scott Parker is available again after being sacked after 12 games for Club Brugge.
  • Talksport reporting that Holden has been approached about the Brugge job

    It seems ex Charlton players do not have successful or long football management careers.

    It seems that English managers in Belgium are as successful as Belgian managers at Charlton...

    What did Cutbishly do after leaving us. Had a failed management stint and West Ham.
    Other wise has been retired.

    Manning to Oxford is an interesting move , they've got some quality in that squad but seemed like they had completely given up under Robinson.

    I might be wrong, but Manning doesn't strike me as a fire-fighting manager, to quickly turn things around which is what they need now. A relegation scrap, which is what they could end up in, isn't the time for introducing a new passing style of football either.

    Yeah I see it as a huge risk. I would have thought Manning was someone that needed a preseason to implement his style.

    Former Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard has flown to Istanbul to hold talks with Trabzonspor over becoming their new manager. (Karar - in Turkish)

    Agent Lee Bowyer please, after all he’s got the Holmesdale Rd stand named after him (albeit by us 😉)

    Supposedly the best thing since sliced bread in September but their plummet has been quite spectacular this season
