The Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2018/19 - sackings etc at other clubs

whupathman

He did this with limited to no funds in a highly competitive environment

MrsGrey

Lemme check, you're talking about rafa, right? :hmm:

IronHerb

Rafa has has a net spend of £0.5m since promotion 2 seasons ago, so not so bad then.

Sam’s isn’t really comparable as he was only half a season, and I think Roeder was the same but I can’t remember.

The Rodent had 1.5 seasons with them, and did pretty well from memory (statistically)

alderz

baracks :ok:

I'm shocked it was so long!

72 games, 33 wins, 45.83% (all competitions)

baracks_a_hammer

Only 15 losses?

You have to say that’s very very good

Since Curbishley's last managerial post (with us) in 2008, Mark Hughes has been appointed by 4 different clubs...

chicagohammer

I wonder which team has produced the most managers, i.e. players who went on to become top flight managers,

We must be up there somewhere, J Bond, J, Lyall, Harry, Bonzo, Slaven, PDC, and Curbs come to mind, not counting Frank Lampard Jr, and Moore who only held lower league positions nor Keven Keen, Scott Parker and Trevor who were caretakers.

Anyone I missed off??

ASLEFshrugged

Malcolm Allison, Noel Cantwell, John Bond, Frank O'Farrell. Malcolm Musgrave, Dave Sexton, Jimmy Andrews, sat around the tables at Cassettari's discussing tactics using ketchup bottles and salt & pepper shakers.

The Academy.

Indeed. It was my day off yesterday and I'd spent most of it down the pub...

jay_in_cpt

Martin O'Neill sacked by Notts Forest, didn't he only join them a short while back. :hmm:

MrsGrey

5 months ago, after Karanka left saying his relationship with the club hierarchy had brokn down.

Pearces_Left_Foot

They waited all of 20 mins before naming his successor

Cuz1

There’s a surprise lol someone lined up already who’d have thought

McHammer

Julian Dicks to join Slav at the Baggies

grey_til_I_dye

Nice work if you can get it. I really struggled to see that Dicksy did any good when he was with us in that role.

OutcastLondoner

Harsh, thought he couldn't have done a much better job of putting out cones.

Lukerz

So Rafa, who cited Newcastle’s different vision for the future of the club as the reason for him leaving, decides his ambition is matched in China. :hmm:

alderz

Honestly, I don’t think it’s related. I really think if Ashley wasn’t such a nincompoop Benitez would have rebuffed any offers from China. He knows he probably won’t get a bigger club than Newcastle, and he probably doesn’t fancy starting another project.

Pearces_Left_Foot

And £12 mil a year probably helps :biggrin:

SuzanneClaret

nincompoop

Its, such a great word.

chicagohammer

I have always liked “buffoon” :ok:

chicago

:ok:

Brilliant 'keeper.

whupathman

So who will be sacked first Ole at Manure or Fat Frank at the chavs

chicagohammer

For the record, I really have had a problem with Chelsea my entire life, however, the appointment of Frank has created a pause in my ire.

Just for a moment, a brief window appeared and I allowed myself the freedom to nod in the direction of the Bridge and wish him well.

Thankfully that window quickly closed

For me, Ole, all day long

OGS ............... Ole's Going Soon

OGS - he's a bit of a buffoon :wave: I always think of Tony Hancock when that word is uttered :bowdown:
