Officially or still just a case of "Sky Sources understand"? Saw something about them having approached him earlier.

Looking like Warburton will finally get the Forest job as well.

Rather startling fact that in the last 100 days a quarter of football league clubs have changed their manager!!

Well, it confirms what I heard about Rowett not wanting to move far from his home in Duffield.... Pride Park is just down the road. Makes a lot of sense, though I would have liked to see them appoint Ranieri and win the Prem just to annoy the Leicester board.

These go to eleven.

Could well explain why were in no rush to appoint GC a number 2 until the summer, too.

Thnks

He is very unpopular in Wigan (for some reason)!

Derby sack McLaren...again...

Just wondering, are they still paying him off on a monthly basis from his first sacking?

Jonathan Woodgate!!! Blimey

Orient lose Webb this morning - Omer Riza possibly to stay on and take over (their 10th manager in 3 seasons I think)!

They've been a mess since well before Warne turned up with Stubbs bringing in some rubbish, Jackett lasting 5 days so i'm not sure its all Warnes fault. Seems to be a case of Stewart looking at the bigger picture as well in terms of they wanted someone who cared about the club.

Out of interest how is he still funding everything...i dread to think how many players they've gone through going back to fat lads spell there plus have they started paying for the ground as yet?

3 years in the championship, higher gate receipts, TV money etc.

Interestingly during the Rotherham-Wednesday game the commentators mentioned that Rotherham and Huddersfield have pretty much the same budget.

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything!

Appreciate this Ive just never seen a manager with as poor a record given the job permanently - a brave move in some ways because he'll have to pick up some pretty demotivated players next year.

From the outside looking in Warne's appointment mirrors Richardson's at Town.

A young manager with some sort of association to the club handed the gig despite a lame relegation.

Warne has had even longer than Richardson and a transfer window to sort things out, so it could be classed as a worse decision

I doubt it will go down very well
