They've got one of them mad **** owners who doesn't have the first clue about football in England, who wants to change everything 'cos he thinks he can buy enough people with his wealth. Everything is dispensable. I'm surprised he's lasted so long myself. Nowt against Malky, but it's obviously one of the more peculiar clubs these days. Like us.
****ing hell, how pedantic are you when it comes to something involving our club? It is on about mangers currently in the Premier League and their overall time as manager of their current club ffs...
Yes.. longest serving managers at clubs, who are currently serving in the Premiership.. not sure why it's so difficult to understand?
But thats not what he said "11th longest serving manager in the Premiership" Just pointing it out. No idea why you're all throwing a hissy.
He was also challenging for promotion around this time last season wasn't he? But back to the thread, I can't see any decent manager wanting to go near the Cardiff job if MacKay goes. This could be Kamikaze time for them.
Tan has money, not many men will tell him to give it to someone else. Money talks. They either do well and get paid well for it, or do **** and get paid extremely well. It's a win win, I can't see many turning it down.
Maybe they want a cheap option - I was thinking more of a historical link -if my memory serves me right didn't Nigel have a stint as temporary West Brim boss a few years back?
Fair enough. In case you wondered Pearson is 20th in the full Football League list, 2nd behind Powell at Charlton in the Championship. Bruce in comparison is 29th.
Owners want success now and are like spoilt children if they don't get their way - by sacking the manager and "buying a new one" they think it will get them what they want. Amazing stat about Moyes being the 11th longest serving manager in the Prem.
I know, I saw the stat on FoxesTalk the other day. Its barmy and should be stopped. I'm not one for 'getting rid' although Sousa and Sven needed to go.
To some degree. Obviously money talks, but any manager knows he has to have a reasonable relationship with the owner and it might not be worth risking years out of work for one fat contract.
Bruce is 7th in the all time Premier League manager list in terms of number of games managed. The top 10 for that is: 1. Fergie - 810 2. Wenger - 698 3. 'Arry - 616 4. Moyes - 443 5. BFS - 360 6. MON - 359 7. Brucey - 334 8. Graham - 332 9. Curbishley - 328 10. Souness - 319
