Manager Sacking and Appointment Thread

[cerbera45]

Gareth Ainsworth given the boot by QPR. Maybe it’s not the managers that are the problem there.

(He) should have stayed at Wycombe, had a job for life there.

Nigel Pearson gone from Bristol City, dropping like flies at the moment.

Oh dear. Now we're going to get Kev to Bristol City posts.

But ambition is in everyone and a decent pay off
Cannot blame him for trying, would Maher resist the chance of QPR if they come asking , be a fool not to try

Yes I know. The point was he will now be linked to every sacked managers job, Championship and below.

I dont think it is just Kevin who has got the team playing Darren and Mark would have a big input . I dont think he will go .

Grimsby Town sack Paul Hurst after poor start to season.
Town are only one of the 4 promoted teams from last two season not to be in or about automatic or play off spots in L2.

another Johnny Foreigner manager gets the opportunity to take over a Championship club instead of a promising British one.

Gareth was always a promising British one…

No different to Johnny Foreigner taking over clubs with no football experience

No worries, Robbie has taken legal advice and put Etherington back into his role as interim head coach, making Wagmi look like a bunch of dick heads, he obviously thinks that contract is not legally biding in some way. https://www.cu-fc.com/news/2023/october/head-coach-update/

I can't think of many promising British managers, the current trend seems to just be to hire a ex-England international and then act suprised when it turns out being a good player doesn't make you a good manager. Will Still is the only promising manager I can think of that might have taken the job but he seems happy at Reims. I am surprised they didn't get Warnock though, maybe he wasn't interested.

And when they fail as so many do , the owner will wonder why, They dont really understaqnd that the English game is somewhat different than the leagues in Europe.

I watch a bit of world football and cant tell the difference between any league, be it Brazil, Greece, Japan, South Africa or where ever. Its now a global game and played pretty much the same way the world over. Most players in the prem are foreign so perhaps it make sense to have a foreign manager too.

Hope he does well because he's got a lot of potential but I'm pretty surprised by that. He was sacked by MK Dons less than 12 months ago after leading them to the bottom of the table, 6 points from safety. He's been doing well at Oxford but I would have thought he'd need another year of good results before championship clubs started enquiring. It sounds like the fans weren't happy the club sacked Pearson, hopefully they give him time if he doesn't hit the ground running.
