    I don’t think Bilic should manage a team in the Premier League ever again, not good enough and simply not up to the job.

    Was good enough for us finishing 7th in the league (4 points off a champions league spot) + 11th last season

    Actually don't think Watford are good enough for Slav.
    I mean why bother when no manager lasts more than a season or so...
    A shoddy run club IMO and as a fan would not be happy to see a new manager so often ;ok

    Twist,
    I was never that happy with his appointment, I never think a good player makes a good manager, i’ll agree his first season was a good achievement, but I think that was more Payet and the way the team played around him than anything that Bilic did.
    Last season he looked to have no plan B after Payet departed and this season we looked even worse, in short the team were a mess. I know some thought he should be given more time but I think he had that last season,I was both relieved and pleased to see him shown the door.
    Moyes seems to be sorting us out and we are I hope heading in the right direction.
    We shall have to agree to differ on Bilic ;ok

    Claret... “I never think a good player makes a good manager,”

    what about Pep, Ancolotti, Zidane, Dalglish, Conte, Cruyff to name a few..

    I suspect there was an implied 'automatically'.

    I hope Watford crumble. Silva worked wonders with that squad; the owners sack managers every time the cereal packet is empty; and then they refuse to let Silva talk to Everton. So their logic goes: "He was brilliant. We refused to let him go, so now we're sacking him." Very odd.

    How safe is Pardew now?
  • VorselaarhammerVorselaarhammer
    Not surprised sackling Pulis and replacing him with Pardew was stupid.

    Winks and whistles work quite well.

    I hadn't thought your post was 'serious', and nor was my reply meant to be.

    Birmingham have sacked their manager and are now looking to appoint....

    wait for it...

    their fifth manager in 16 months ;nonono

    I think they also need a new appointments committee/procedure, because the one they have doesn't seem to be working.

    Birmingham sacked Gary Rowett when they were 6th in the league last season. Since then, they have played 67 games, won 14, drawn 15 and lost 38. Win % of 20.9%. They sacked him to bring in a 'name' and Zola had a win % of 8.3% (2 from 24 games).

    Rowett on the other hand has a 44.7% win ratio with Derby County (21 from 47). Derby are 5th on 60 points. Birmingham are 22nd on 30 points.

    Safe to say they got that one wrong.
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    And to be fair living in derby fans who come in our pub don’t rate his style of play and are moaning again about how things go wrong Feb/ March every season but as you say got a good win % with them
