Story doing the rounds that as a reward for winning promotion at Leeds, Daniel Farke’s fate will be the sack.
It’s a mad, mad world.

The sensible thing would be to send him away on a gap year, so that he can come back in when they're relegated in 2026.

If true, that just shows how crazy football is these days. So they bring in someone different, who'll want to rip the heart out of the dressing room, and probably languish around the relegation zone, having spent daft money on the best part of a new squad, and then drop back into the championship. As one Mr James Greaves would say "it's a funny old game".

Surely the Blunts will have the same problem with Wilder if they get through the playoffs

[JonB]

I'd sack Wilder just for the fact he is a massive knob! Done nowt but whine in the last few weeks as their push for automatic promotion blew up including his antics at Plymouth when the home team had the audacity to celebrate a win!

Seems to rub off on some of his players as well as a few of them kicked off with Burnley players celebrating on Monday. Think their last fine from the FA was over £100k due to the amount of times they've had it happen this season.

To be fair his Norwich teams have put up no fight whatsoever in the Premier but still think its a bit harsh to get rid.

I listened to his post match interview after the recent game and victory against the Owls.
Incomprehensible, going back to when Wednesday had Waddle, Sheridan, Woods.
I see Bamford has given him some stick at the Leeds promotion party.

Wilder is a decent Championship manager, but that's as far as it goes. I think the same can be said for United too. The last time they had a really decent side, MK3 Cortinas were all the rage, and Dixon of Dock Green had just got his first personal radio.

Yeh when it comes to Wednesday he’s definitely a bit of a prat but he’s a blunts fan so he can’t help it. I just think he’s lost the plot a bit recently as the pressure has built as they’ve fumbled the promotion push. They’ve an awful playoffs record so I can see them not going up now.

Apparently with James Morrison taking temp charge of West Brom it means they have had four managers since the last time Leicester scored a goal in a home fixture!

West Brom
James Morrison ?
He might “ give them something “

This whole story came from a caller Sunday night just asking this same question

Bristol Rovers sacked Calderon yesterday.

Watford have sacked Cleverley. To no one's surprise the perennial merry-go-round goes around!

He's done well to last over a year, first one in over 15 years I think I read.

Too much of a poison chalice for Dyche to go back there maybe?

Phil Brown gone at Kidderminster. The advert below the announcement would be rather ominous if I was a fan.

😳😳😳, they'd be better off with Jennifer Saunders, probably a better after dinner speaker as well.
