    I can see Steve Clake going to Cardiff.

    This has just turned into madness! <laugh>

    There's going to be a massive managerial merry-go-round for the next couple of weeks.

    It is possible that we could have 8 sackings in the Premier League by the new year. (5 already, Mackay, BFS and Hughton possibles).


    Ridiculous.

    This has the same ring as the Nick Barmby situation.

    Apparently David Moyes is the 11th longest serving manager in the Premiership! (According to the Monday Night Club on Radio 5).

    Bruce is eighth. (Chris Hughton signed for Norwich just one day before Brucey joined us)

    He may be a lunatic but the chairman has a point here. Mackay spent a shed load in the summer. How much was that Cornelius 7-8 million, he's hardly played him.

    But Bruce has only been a manager in the Premier League with you for half a season?

    Thanks, Captain Obvious.

    Bruce has managed in the Premier League (in his current stint) for half a season whereas Hughton has lasted longer. Therefore Hughton is the longer serving Premier League manager.

    Capiche?

    Oh dear.

    You seem to have misunderstood the initial statistic.

    Of the current Premier League managers, Bruce has been in his current job for the eighth longest time.


    I didn't think it was that hard to work out.

    AKCJ has been listening to square head for so long that he's becoming as pedantic as he is!

    I can see Laudrup going to Spurs, Clarke to Swansea and Mackay to West Brom - although that could all change should Sam a lard arse get the boot soon as well!

    Should have said in my previous post that AKCJ is also worried that WBA will come calling for square head! :D

    Stat is about longest serving managers at their club, regardless of league.

    Only has 6 months on his contract and has built a side challenging for promotion with absolutely nothing spent in the summer and little spent in the transfer windows proceeding it.

    I'd be surprised if he's not on their list but i'd also be surprised if he's their number 1 target.
