    Watford sack head coach Vladimir Ivic after four months in the role.

    The revolving door continues to spin.

    Fifth place and 4 points of the top 2.

    Absolute joke of a decision, but completely on form for Watford.

    Hopefully McUseless is in the frame as their next manager.

    He’d be out of a job before he left this one, the rate they go through managers.

    He got a carriage clock on exit as by Watford standards 4 months = long service.

    They've not looked great this season, I can imagine people on the outside looking in at us would be similarly confused at us wanting McCann gone. But yeah their priors on this don't make it look great.

    By saying that you're endorsing the same policy.

    Loose a few, sack the coach.

    Take the piss out of them for doing what you'd have us do....

    Alright pal.

    They haven’t just lost a few, they’ve just lost one, prior to that they had two wins and a draw, they seem to have a policy of randomly sacking their manager every six months or so.

    I wonder what terms of employment these managers get? They surely must at least have a contract for a year, so the club would be having to pay a full years salary for a few months work?

    Apart from the fact McCann has been here for 1.5 seasons and has had some awful spells in charge.

    I mean the two situations are almost entirely different.

    Sacked for the crime of falling out with Troy Deeney and putting him on the bench, it seems. I’m no fan of what is currently happening with KLP, but I think that’s lurching too far the other way!

    Guess it shows that from the outside looking in doesn't always paint the picture.

    Only if they didn't know that we were currently 14th (and falling) in the form table and that this time last year went on the worst run in Championship history.

    Yes, but their manager was only brought in four months ago, after winning almost every game with his previous club.

    While ours was busy setting records at being ****.

    Here you can lose 20 games after Christmas, get relegated AND put your best striker on the bench and not get sacked. Talk about extremes !
