    The Wolves manager must be on the tightrope, even though he's just penned a new deal. No win in the first eight is poor.

    As for the Championship, they say you are never more than six feet from a former Watford manager.

    The Morecambe gaffer has to be on thin ice. If they were to get someone in, someone with experience, they could still survive, as they are not adrift just yet. Trouble is, would the new owners want to admit they made a boo-boo from the off? Stubbornness could see them playing National League North next season.

    Peterborough
    Blackpool
    Reading

    Must be pretty uncomfortable places right now.
    For all I know though, maybe they are already on their second gaffers this season.

    They probably budgeted on that from the off, however, what they know about football and the finances etc may be minimal.

    They are conceding a mere three goals a game!

    Of course this idiot should not be anywhere near managing a football club.

    I’ll give you a prediction - the next forest manager won’t be in charge at the start of the next season

    Sean Dyche will still be managing them on the opening day of the season.

    And so he should be.

    He has delivered everything the Disney owners have asked of him.

    The wolves one is interesting - he was doing terrible then the board doubled down and gave him a new contract . And there they are still winless and sitting bottom

    Vitor Pereira has a history of this , a quick impact manager who then loses his cool with fans / owners / media, and then departs.

    According to their long suffering fans, the Wolves owners are in hock to a powerful Portuguese super agent, which is why they keep wasting money on expensive Portuguese players who then flop, and duff Portuguese managers. Even by PL standards, they recruit very few British.

    'Just a waver-thin mint'?
    As an aside I see perennial fatty Steve Evans has lost seven stones in six months, that some going, and without the jab. :emoticon-0138-think

    Yes, in so many cases people end up heavier than when they started the diet

    It's twenty years since Gazza took on the manager's seat at Kettering. He won three of his six matches in charge. Apparently, he never attended a training session, leaving those duties to former Gunner Paul Davis.

    Crazy days.

    Brian Clough was rarely seen at the Forest training ground before the Friday of each week, and even then he used to bring his dog & walk it along the Trent riverside.
