    According to the bloke in the tweets above, it's definitely not a six month deal, he seems to think it's a long term appointment.

    Great if true, I just hope however that this may also be related to the Allam's going too. I agree with your earlier post that this doesn't feel like an Allam type of appointment. However, that is a gut feeling I have no inside track. OLM, if I read or understood your post correctly was your information from a good source?

    There definitely seems to be something going on with regard to a sale, but I'm not managing to get any decent info on what's actually happening.

    Just what we need to be honest, new manager with hopefully exciting new ideas.

    Backroom staff all gone.

    Neil McDonald - Probably the shortest stint at our club?

    Every article around the time seems to just be like this, with 'personal reasons' the only reason cited...

    ATHENS (Reuters) - Marco Silva resigned as coach of Greek champions Olympiakos Piraeus on Thursday with the club immediately announcing Spaniard Victor Sanchez as his successor.

    The 38-year-old Portuguese Silva, who led Olympiakos to a record 43rd league title last season, cited personal reasons for his sudden and unexpected departure.

    “Olympiakos announces to its fans that the coach, Marco Silva, has tendered his resignation due to personal reasons. His resignation was accepted,” the club said in a brief statement.

    Olympiakos then published a second statement, adding: “We further announce that we have reached an agreement with Victor Sanchez to be the club’s new coach.”

    The 40-year-old Sanchez, who worked at Olympiakos as assistant to former coach Michel in the 2013/14 season, managed Deportivo La Coruna last season, but was sacked after the club finished 15th in La Liga.

    Silva had become a hugely popular figure with the Olympiakos fans after enjoying a record-breaking first season in charge in 2015/16, wrapping up the title with six matches to spare and chalking up a club-record 17 league wins in a row in the process.

    According to local media reports, Silva informed Olympiakos's shocked players of his decision on the first day of their pre-season preparation camp in Austria.

    Silva had been linked with FC Porto before they appointed Nuno Espirito Santo.

    Had success managing in three different teams, two different countries

    It's very strange

    Why would the allams look and appoint a manager who has success? Is this their way of trying not to **** all their money up and keep us up
