First Casualty of the 23/24 Sack race

Shocking appointment in the first place.

Hodgson has stepped down, his health issues allow this and it makes sense seeing as he was apparently just about to be sacked before he fell ill:

An ideal job for Potter, if he wants one, just up the road from Brighton.

Let's hope Roy takes the hint and stays retired now. He always comes across as a nice guy, the stresses of Premier football management is no place for a 76 year old. Even Fergie finally retired at 71.

The stresses of being a West Ham fan is no place to be at any age

Slacker · February 19

That sounds like Leeds under that Italian bloke a few years ago . They had more managers than Chelsea-
nearly.

buffybegood · February 19

As anticipated, Glasner has been appointed at Palace:

Alonso says he will be staying at Bayer Leverkusen next season

Wonder who will be next to turn down Liverpool...

claretandbluesky · March 29

In the report I read he said he had made a promise to the fans that he wouldn't leave until he had delivered a European trophy to them, as that opportunity is gone now this season he has confirmed he will stay at least another year.

PrestonHammer · March 29

He's waiting for the West Ham job. I can dream can't I? hahaha

Barnsley sack their manager with one game of the regular season to go, whilst they're sitting in a play-off place:

Bazshuayi · April 22

Bringing out a Greavsie "It's a funny old game" for that one!

(I dont know why their form has tailed off so much from when they were considered auto promotion challengers but wondering what will miraculously turn it around again for the playoffs... If they reach them)

Game’s gone etc.

Seems as though Slot is taking over over Klopp:

Bazshuayi · April 26

Someone has to say that he'll Slot right in, dont they?

Bazshuayi · April 26

This just reminds me again that Klopp is leaving the Premier League and I truly am gutted about it.

No joking around etc. He will be a huge miss for me (despite lots here feeling the opposite. I get that we all like and dislike different players and managers so it doesnt bother me).

I am thankful at least he was here when no other team could lay a glove on Man City! God it would've been so much more boring if it was a City procession every season.

I do agree with this sentiment, but there needs to be a more appealing challenger than Liverpool (especially under Klopp) or Arsenal under Arteta for me not to want City to win.

Bazshuayi · April 26

and thats an issue with most of us not wanting any of the 'top' sides to win it. Out of the top chunk currently, I'd want Villa to win the league

All the other teams I dont want to eein it (in order) Man City, Spurs, Man Utd, Chelsea, Newcastle and Arsenal

De Zerbi leaving Brighton after tomorrow's match:

Does that mean Potter might go back there

I'm guessing Bayern paid a massive fee for him

According to German media he isn't going to Bayern. I do have to admit, though, that it sounds strange.

Bazshuayi · May 19

Barcelona?

Bazshuayi · May 19

Manuel!! (Couldn't help myself)

Bazshuayi · May 19

Probably should have made the De Zerbi comment here. The BBC quote him as saying he hasn't got a job to go to and no club has contacted him... Should we?

IronHerb · May 19

One season wonder?

chicagohammer · May 20

I know nothing - neither could I :-)
