General Manager Sack Watch

[Peterdev]

Can’t see ManC changing managers after six titles in seven years. Bolton and QPR might well announce changes tomorrow. I hope Rob Edwards gets more time but I’d be surprised if he lasts long. Given there is an international break due, they may well act now

 

[werthersoriginal]

I've not been following the Prem, so no idea what's going on there, but Man City must be imploding if they're considering sacking Pep after all he's done for them.

But yes, as mentioned, Luton, QPR, Rotherham and Bolton will be considering a switch, and I'd also throw Wigan in the mix too. Peterborough are underachieving, but I reckon the deluded Scott still has time.

Apparently Robins has been spotted at Maine Road

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

Managers should be given time at least till Xmas unless far adrift at the bottom.

He will have a long wait if he’s gone to Maine Road

Say what you like about Ainsworth but he’s a good operator, especially at league 1 & 2 level.

With a limited budget, he will do well there with his direct style and siege mentality.

Well that’s two teams that are going to finish below us: Rooney’s Plymouth and Lampard’s Coventry..

We just need Gerrard appointed at QPR and then we can all sit back and enjoy the rest of the season

 

[Coffin dodger]

Who is the first for the sack, my money is on Rooney he's already started criticising his teams performances.

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

I think Rooney has more time yet
Qpr guy maybe

 

[Foley]

I would be surprised if it was Cifuentes.
Rooney ismore likely I would think.

Our 2 games at QPR and Plymouth could make a big impact for both.

Or on Des's position.

Or on Des's position.

I would be surprised.
To me he has an awful lot of credit in the bank.
If we are competitive in this league, then I would be surprised if he went.
Having been to Sheffield and Middlesbrough at home, the fans appear to be very behind him at the moment.

My personal opinion is the same, and I would be disappointed if the ownership team pulled the plug so early, but I guess it's very hard to second guess their intentions isn't it.

A few on here have suggested that they are serious about staying in the championship. If they believe the best chance of that happening is with a different manager, then it'll happen whether we like it or not.
