BOOOOOOO

If that’s not a ressies game then :shock: :shock: :shock: at the empty stand


FA Cup 2nd round at Bootham Crescent in December 2001 I think. Reading lost 2-0 and for the second season in a row they were dumped out of the competition by York City (the previous season they lost 5-3 on aggregate :wink: ).

Following the game, Reading were only beaten once more that season (by 3-1 at Brighton).

Danny Schofield gone from Huddersfield.

I reckon Corboran saw the writing on the wall and Schofield was his patsy.

Someone has already changed his Wiki entry to say he is the new Brighton head coach/manager or whatever they call it down there.

Carlos Corberan sacked by Olympiakos. Wonder how safe Steve Cooper is feeling in his job tonight?

In fairness, Olympiakos' start to the season has been shocking by their standards. 7pts behind Panathinaikos after 5 games.

And that’s not out of the question

Hartlepool have already appointed Keith Curle as replacement for Paul Hartley. Rochdale sacked their manager and appointed Jim Bentley only a couple of weeks ago so now 3 of the bottom 4 in Division 4 have changed management. Neil Harris (Gillingham) must be a bit nervous…

Reckon he has 6 games - and needs 3 wins minimum or he is toast.

Forest are now making an utter mess of this and perhaps deserve what's coming their way.

listened to a thing on De Zerbi yesterday and it made him sound like a fun manager. Basically said he has quite a strict fast 1 touch passing approach to the game but also is all about just going for it. His Sassuolo team had both a high number of goals scored and goals against because even when they played much better teams they would just try and bomb forward and outscore them

Rosenior relived of duties at Derby apparently. Rotherham fans already seem to have accepted that Paul Warne will be going there.

I guess the name is the attraction, but if they don’t go up he could have two seasons below the team he is potentially leaving

Are Derby clear of any restrictions now ?

Listened to something at the weekend which speculated that we may see some almost sackings being held off until the winter break and then a flurry of sackings right as the winter break starts

The structure of the season pretty much makes it inevitable. We're seeing a lot if change now as owners panic or feel they can't trust the man in charge to stay so throughout a crazy October.

Then come November, it's nearly half way in the season & you have 4 weeks without a game. What better opportunity reassess and give a new guy a mini pre-season with a transfer window to come as well.

Could be carnage.
