The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

[TBM]

Zakly. He speaks English in training.

Yep, and when doing their fan forum type things

LOL @ taking the Spurs job. Club who have won a couple of league cups in best part of 25 years, not come close to a sniff of the title in more than 50 years. It is a graveyard job:

Christian Gross, Juande Ramos, AVB....all dispensed with and now managing in european backwater leagues. Hoddle, not in football management. George Graham, never managed again. Jol, unemployed. Redknapp had to dip down into the Championship, two years ago the media were clamouring for him to be England manager. Poisoned chaLOLice, the third best club in London.

[Silver Fox]

I just tried to look up the "sack race"* odds, Pchetinno has to be worth a couple of quid doesn't he?

*ugghh

[Sanguine]

I think Paul Lambert has that one sewn up, unless he leaves over the summer.

The envy is tangible.

Not sure you can call it envy when Floyd thinks everything is shit.

Wenger signs new 3 year deal at Arsenal

[St. Brynjar]

Brian leaves by mutual consent.

[St. Brynjar]

"It has been my great privilege to manage this great club and I have enjoyed the challenge immensely.
"However it is clear that Massimo wishes to implement a new structure and feels he will work more successfully for Leeds with a coach rather than a manager. I respect that Massimo must be fully supported in putting together his vision for the club so he can bring us the success we all want. It is my belief that when truly United we are stronger. Massimo wants to bring a new energy to the club so that we can return to where we belong as a healthy football club.
"To my players for their efforts I say a big thank-you. To all the staff and especially my great assistant manager Nigel Gibbs and my great friend Patrick Dolan I am especially grateful for their support.
"Finally to the incredible force that is the Leeds United supporters, I offer my heartfelt thanks. Your support of me and the players was always an inspiration and I urge everyone to get behind the team and the new owner next season to get us back to where we need to be, fighting for trophies and competing at the top-table of English and European football.
"It won't be easy, but Marching On Together we can get there.
"I wish Massimo and all my friends at Elland Road every success in the future."

"Brian is a great manager and a great guy. He has been unfortunate to work in such difficult circumstances. I did not fully understand the mess he had to work in, and the broken promises he had to deal with, until I have got involved trying to turn Leeds around.
"He has been a gentleman to deal with in our discussions and has been very understanding of my wish to implement a new structure. His main concern and priority at all times has been the welfare and protection of Leeds United. I wish him well for the future where I am sure he will continue to have more success and thank him for his efforts in being a stabilising and unifying figure behind the scenes in very difficult circumstances.
"His honest efforts to guide us to the safety of mid-table when faced with many difficulties is appreciated by us all. He will always be a friend of Leeds United."

No ambition...

[Mr Angry]

The serial managerial failure that is Roy Keane is going to get the Celtic job.

Woo hoo Roy; a couple of seasons of winning the least competitive League in Europe will prove how great a manager you think you are.......

[Pepe the Horseman]

Carbone will probs get the Leeds job, but Festa looks value at 12/1

It's a useful experiment - just how bad a manager do you have to be not to win the SPL with Celtic.

Poor Brian - #bringhimhome

The serial managerial failure that is Roy Keane.....

Bit harsh that.

He hasn't had many seasons but achieved one (unlikely) promotion and has no relegations on his record.

But many angry, disaffected players...

He's the drinking man's Paulo Di Canio, incidentally another manager with 1 promotion and no relegations on his managerial cv.

Dave Hockaday, who was sacked by Forest Green in October, is now 5/2 2nd fav for the Leeds job, after being backed in from 50/1
