You never mentioned Sir Alec Ferguson, who played for Glasgow Rangers, managed Aberdeen and broke the stranglehold that Glasgow Rangers and Celtic had in Scottish football at the time and won trophies asunder here in Scotland, moved to United and we all know the rest. Then we had Jock Stein, the ex-Celtic manager who won everything domestic-wise with Celtic plus the old European Cup with all Scottish home-based players, he eventually went and managed Leeds but left after 44 days to manage Scotland, I always thought that if he had stayed at Leeds he could have become another SAF in the English game.

Look at my post in The Scottish section, I mentioned Stein and Ferguson. Yes, I meant Ramsay. Joe Mercer and Bertie Mee, Ron Greenwood, Bobby Robson.............all gone. NO replacements for them....it's sad.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted August 30, 2022 Subscriber Posted August 30, 2022 Could have had Parker at 12/1 or 14/1 according to the odds in this thread. It's quite often a bit of an outsider goes first.
Lucas Posted August 30, 2022 Posted August 30, 2022 Brendan Rodgers, Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard this morning...
Chickasaw Posted August 30, 2022 Posted August 30, 2022 Jack Ross has been sacked as Dundee United head coach following Sunday's 9-0 hammering by Celtic - just his seventh game in charge. Looks like it's a trend. You know, this season has had the weirdest start to it that I've ever experienced.

I posted 10 minutes before the end that Leeds/Everton would end 1-1 because I could see a symmetry forming. 1-1 at the top, then 2-1, 2-1 in the middle so I thought the pattern would be kept and so the bottom would be 1-1. Elementary my dear Watson. It's why I predicted you'd be ok after The Brentford setback.
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted September 18, 2022 Subscriber Posted September 18, 2022 Poor old Brendan, I think his days are numbered now, another week maybe?
Subscriber Dan+ Posted September 18, 2022 Subscriber Posted September 18, 2022 This club is finished as anything remotely serious if he sees that Forest game. He's putting in quite possibly the worst stint of managerial performance I've ever seen, certainly at Leicester at least. He'll spin it like he's the victim but he's the master of that. It largely started with him. He dug the fucking hole. If our board don't remove him before the Forest game then I think substantial changes are needed - and I'm talking drastic. That's a level of incompetence so barely believable it's really not beyond the realms of possibility we go the way of Portsmouth / Sunderland. I said all of this after Brighton but the fact we had virtually a repeat - if they can't see it now then I can't see what it's actually going to take.

Administrator Stan Posted January 9, 2023 Administrator Posted January 9, 2023 Who do we think is next? Lampard, Rodgers, Moyes, Potter?!
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted January 9, 2023 Subscriber Posted January 9, 2023 Got to be Potter, surely, for the life of me, I don't know why they sacked Tuchel. Chelsea is now going through a United scenario when SAF retired, in came Moyes, and Potter to me is another Moyes.
OrangeKhrush Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 I feel for potter, he will be jobless while Zerbi does well with his Brighton team who he left after pounding Leicester and flying high. Chelsea are blowing cash now because next season they will not be in Europe at all and the financial hit will be severe. Its a risk but their spending restrictions with new FFP will hit hard and they will not be able to spend 300-400 million. the handbrake is coming soon, if they also don't get champions league inside a season or two, they could be in a ton of trouble
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 10, 2023 Subscriber Posted January 10, 2023 I went to back Nathan Jones last week at 33/1, left it, and he's down to 8/1 FFS! I think probably Lampard. The heat will be back on Rodgers properly soon though I've no doubt - I'm seeing everything from early season repeating itself.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 10, 2023 Subscriber Posted January 10, 2023 On Potter - he is who we supposedly wanted to replace Rodgers. I've said this on here before but I'd not be surprised if Graham Potter is our manager next season. The pieces may be coming together for it. Rodgers mentally clocked out of here a long time ago and Potter I think they'll cave in on and sack. Mad to think only 4 months ago we thought we'd get Potter out of Brighton. All feels so different.
OrangeKhrush Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 Lampard is my pick for a sacking, Moyes the next pick Rogers is probably unsackable due to the money owed to him and Leicester being tighter than a nuns foo foo.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 16, 2023 Subscriber Posted January 16, 2023 Rodgers still 10/1. Never known a manager perform so badly yet be under such relatively little pressure.
