Cocu has cocked up.

Derby County (bottom of the Championship) sack their hapless manager.
One win in 11 league games <doh>

Top up your Xmas money with another wager on the Sack Race.

Im still strong on OGS, and with a new saver on Slaven Bilic.

Man Utd v WBA on Saturday could push the loser out of the door.

@TC (Lovely Geezer)

Got to be careful with these bets.
If it's the "sack race" market on Paddy, they won't pay out if manager resigns.

The Betfair market is "first manager to leave post".

Sheffield United - 1 point in 8 games.
Burnley - 2 points in 7 games.

Sean Dyche @14/1 looks a solid bet

It is the Betfair one.

I’m pretty confident that Dyche is unsackable given his achievements at Burnley, he’s been relegated with them before and is not the resigning sort. The same applies to Chris Wilder at Sheff United. If Bilic goes first I will get all of my stake money back, but if OGS goes first (hopefully on Saturday) I will win.
I don’t see any other PL manager at risk at the moment - maybe Steve Bruce if Newcastle get a takeover.

Burnley are supposedly getting taken over by Farnell and co - can't see Dyche putting up with that nonsense!!

Did anyone else enjoy the spectacle of Des Kelly giving it back to Jürgen Klopp yesterday <applause><applause><applause><applause>

Long, long overdue that Klopp was called out for his Teutonic hypocrisy.

Not just on VAR - Liverpool weren’t known as LiVARpool in their title season for nothing.

Not just for the penalties - Salah is the biggest diver in football.

But best of all, the TV scheduling. Kelly destroyed Klopp. <laugh>

Also worth pointing out that the Premier League TV deal passes straight through the clubs to people like Klopp - said to earn over £8,000,000 a year.

The interview is well worth a watch.
 
Klopp has been banging on far too much about scheduling of games and protecting his players.
The Elite Clubs want everything served up exactly as they like it.
Meanwhile the rest of football is on its knees in this pandemic.

I seriously would not mind if Klopp, Guardiola and the others just belted up.

If they don't want so many games they can always get rid of the so-called champions league and reinstall the old European Cup and Cup-winners Cup. They won't though because it would break up the cosy little cartel of so-called champions league clubs, they'd be playing less games but bringing in less money.

Having blamed Des Kelly for Milner’s injury, Klopp then didn’t appear to understand how the TV fixtures are decided.....by the Premier League clubs ....not by the TV companies.

And it’s been pointed out that Liverpool have WON the three 12.30 kick offs they have had in the last YEAR.

The only difference yesterday was that Klopp’s team didn’t win.

He made a fool of himself.
