The suggestion is with the large drop in revenue recently, some clubs may give managers more time than normal.

Nice picture including Bobby Campbell (mentioned on the Matt Taylor thread), and Peter Bonetti.

Now there's a stat I didn't know. Good quiz question.

"Who was the first manager to be sacked in the premier league ?"

Without looking it up it has to be Gordon Strachan? Maybe Bruce Rioch?

As long as Watford are in the PL, there will be plenty of managers sacked.

After the events at Watford today the betting companies have offered odds on the next to go.
