    Mowbray has been unwell, more or less since Birmingham appointed him, but this would be an amazing development


  • Meanwhile John Eustace can't buy a win at Blackburn, worked out badly for everyone that sacking!!

    Was looking at that the other day. Since he went there 9 games, 0 wins.

    Question re Nuno at Forest, is his record any better than what Cooper was doing?

    Short answer is "yes" though the differential is marginal and Nuno, with just one in the last nine matches, is on the sort of run that got Cooper the sack:

    Cooper - 14 points from 17 matches (0.82pts per game)
    Nuno -    11 points from 12 matches (0.92pts per game)

    They'd better get something sorted soon. Their next match is on Good Friday away to QPR ! Birmingham also have to play Rotherham & Huddersfield as well as Leicester & on the last day they are playing Norwich.

    Strange that Mowbray's assistant Mark Venus will also step aside until Mowbray returns.

    Accrington Stanley have appointed interim boss John Doolan as their first team manager on a three-year contract.

    The 55-year-old has been in charge for three games after taking over when long-serving manager John Coleman was sacked earlier in March.

    He was a brave choice, but perhaps someone more experienced would have been a better one. The fashion for appointing managers with a background in academy and international youth team football does seem to have delivered mixed results. I think it's particularly hard to come in to a club midseason without the old school experience of managers experienced pros.

    I hope they get a new manager bounce all the way to the end of the season. Last game of the season is against Millwall.

    No surprise really. 1 win in 11 and just 13 points from their last 15 games. I've been saying for a few weeks now i could see them getting sucked into trouble.

    Their next 2 games are Rotherham away and QPR at home. If they don't win either of those then they'll be going down.

    Another England Youth Manager struggling in the club game.

    Rob Edwards with Luton and Forest Green must be one of the few successful ones.

    Steve Cooper did well at Forest.

    Rob Edwards also had a much better playing career, playing at a decent level, so had the knowledge of the men's professional game that training elite kids doesn't give you.

    Wealdstone sack David Noble after less than 3 months. Real danger of relegation from the NL.

    Rotherham United can confirm that the club have parted company with first team Head Coach Leam Richardson with immediate effect.

  • Odd... Given how he did with Wigan, I'd have thought that Richardson would have been a good option to try and get them back out of League One the right way.

    Should have kept Matt Taylor. Did a fine job keeping them up last season, and the reality is that their team isn't good enough for the Championship, whoever the manager.

    In previous relegation they've gone done with their heads held high, and full of praise from neutrals, and gone straight back up. Next season will be a lot tougher.

    They'll probably sign Piergianni too then, to great wailing and gnashing of teeth on here

    Wow, that's a shocker. Suddenly Rotherham become much more serious promotion contenders, and Evans is in nice and early to lead recruitment.
  • That's the last two managers Gillingham have sacked in L2 now managing in the Championship (albeit not for long in Evan's case).

    They must have hired Katrien Miere as their recruitment consultant as that statement says that they have started their search for a replacement..........

    Only to find that Steve Evans is taking the job 2 hours later 😀
