    Masky has a dong BFB, as you are well aware, seemed to enjoy it over Llandaff Fields pal!

    BFB, a word in your ear my friend, I will give you a tip to predict Max Watters to score against Blackburn on Tuesday night. I saw Haaland’s first goal against Man Utd on Sunday, the stretch, the dexterity, the sheer determination to score...wow....I thought Watters! Please feel free to take this tip, and enjoy the point pal! :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Rumoured that Ledley is coming in as a coach.

    Since 1996 800 managers in the top 4 leagues have been sacked, total compensation now running at £420 million.

    The trend seems to be managers go where the best compensation packages are and then do their best to get sacked.

    I don't feel that is the case.
    I'm sure there are exceptions that might fit your description, but managers, like the players most once were, are winners. They hate losing.
    If you like losing, you dont get to the top of your profession, or indeed into the top 4 divisions of your profession.

    Under-fire Hasenhuttl a rare beast
    Speculation about his future is rife at the moment, but it's worth noting Ralph Hasenhuttl is one of just 17 managers in the Premier League and EFL who has been in their current job for two years or more.

    Only nine current managers - Simon Weaver, Gareth Ainsworth, John Coleman, Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola, Mark Robins and Karl Robinson and Thomas Frank - have been in charge longer than him

    Just saw this on Sky... Scary stats these!! How can any club expect to build a genuine philosophy with turnover like that?

    It doesn't really make me feel any better about it, but it seems we're no different to most.

    Well that`s 4 managers at the top of the 4 divisions while 12 managed to get their clubs relegated. Managers find it easier to lose games than win them.

    Oh and if players and managers don`t like losing games there must be a lot of depressed managers and players around.

    ...........and mathematically far more depressed supporters.

    I can't believe you really think managers do their best to get sacked for the compensation package they'd get - that's ludicrous.

    Ive no doubt its easier to lose games than win them.
    To believe they try to lose them.
    Do you think Dyche tried to get Burnley relegated or Warnock tried to get us relegated?
    Madness.
