AthleticoSpizz keep him there

He is doing a great job


To be fair to him isn't it more to do with the lack of investment at Villa than managerial shortcomings?


Spent a fair amount this season. Perhaps McLeish didnt do such a bad job last season.

William Hill suspended betting this afternoon on Rafa Benitez being sacked. They have re opened it with him at 7/4 favourite to be the next manager to go.

MikeSports understands that Alex McLeish has walked out on Forest because of the George Boyd debacle.

To be fair here, Alex apparently spent 3 weeks getting a deal together and negotiating with Peterborough and Boyd only to find the Forest board pulled the deal 12 hours after Boyd completed his medical as apparently he has slightly dodgy eyesight! This is an attacking player who scores more than his fair share and hit the back of the opponents net from the halfway line recently

No wonder Alex could be pondering his future at Forest right now

Di Canio may be the next.
Swindon have sold their best player to Bournemouth when both are battling for promotion.

Anyone know how many of the 92 have changed manager this season.

Feels like most of them but surely it can't be
