    That's radical sacking the manager with 2 games to play...i wonder if they had a replacement and are bringing him in early

    That’s utterly ridiculous by Watford. They deserve to go down now

    Aren’t they 3 points clear of the relegation zone? I’m with Libs here - totally mental doing it right now, they could at least see if Danny gets his 3rd and 4th goal.

    Well they won their two previous matches and they're in a much better position than when he took over.

    Barmy imo. Hope they lose 17 nil to City.

    Well, 10-0 will do me - I’m not one to be greedy.

    Four managers in the same season would be something. However, I expect it'll be a caretaker for the final two games (who would want those two fixtures?), and therefore remain at the three.

    We've done three - Sturrock, Wigley, Harry. But I can't think we've done four.

    The likes of Swansea and Charlton have done three as well.

    And Harry wasn’t a full manager either - he was spineless.

    To be fair to Watford, since sacking Pearson, they've become the new favourites to stay up. So a new upturn already.

    When Leicester beat Villa in early December, they were in 2nd. Eight points behind Liverpool, with a three goal better GD. They were 14 clear of 5th, and 23 clear of us (in 18th).

    They're now 31 points behind Liverpool, with a 20 goal worse GD. Likely to drop out of the top four altogether when Man Utd play their game in hand, and 13 points clear of us. And been knocked out of the league cup SF by Villa.

    What has happened to Leicester? Come on Foxes, four second goals please. Think back to that rampant night to inspire yourselves on in the second half and keep yourselves ahead of the so-called second most famous club in the world
