So that’s Swansea, Birmingham, Millwall and Sunderland all sacking managers after less than half a season this year…. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 (edited) Only managers to make a discernible difference so far coming in are Cifuentes and Rohl albeit from a terrible base. Could add Mowbray too but sample size rather small. However yes he seems a notable improvement on Rooney. I expect Eustace may tighten Blackburn up too, albeit how far or otherwise of the League? Beyond that...? Either stood still or gone backwards. Edited February 21 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View from the Dolman Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Neil Harris would complete the treble of having managed in League Two, League One and the Championship in the same season. Wonder if he can get a late move to the Premier League in a month or so... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baba Yaga Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Since they won at Ashton Gate it's 0 wins, 1 draw and 7 defeats. Can't say I am too surprised that getting rid of Rowett for Frank Lampard's assistant hasn't worked. The Sheff Wed loss dragged them into the relegation fight and I think keeping Edwards and hoping he turns it around would be a bigger gamble than giving Harris another go. If there was a bad mid season manager change award this season I would still go for Birmingham to get 1st prize, with Millwall and Sunderland both in the running for 2nd I am struggling to decide there.

The Coach Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Reported Neil Harris is set to rejoin Millwall as Manager on an 18 month deal. Harris is currently manager of Cambridge United who currently sit 17th in League One. Hardly an inspiring appointment for Millwall. Who are now dancing with relegation themselves.

It's a nice little toss up isn't it. Stoke are also worried about the drop, I'm not so sure but 2 of those 3..well yeah. Birmingham with Mowbray at the wheel should be fine but he is handing over to Venus for what could be 6-8 weeks so who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole Not Gas Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 And QPR?? ? Its always a sell out, good away support at home and away games Most of us felt that result, and/or something similar this weekend were on the cards as 'Lamball' is now so good v top teams but is yet to prove itself against poorer sides. However, there's another angle to the QPR loss where I'm struggling to remember a home win in that fixture for 12,13 or maybe 14 games. Anyone who keeps or likes looking up stats can tell us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory we beat QPR at home in 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20. Then lost at home in 2020-21, 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24. Last home win was August 2019, Nagy scored looked excellent for 45 and then went off injured. Think was the last for either side. Who do you want relegated? QPR or Millwall?

Gazred Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 He's obviously Millwall through and through and someone they think they can trust to keep them up. Anyone is a gamble at this stage. Probably would of been Warnock if he'd not gone north of the border. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do you want relegated? QPR or Millwall? No strong feelings either way as i dont like either club but, both easy to get to by public transport, so a Yorkshire trio going down would be ok too. Rotherham looked doomed on paper but there's something about them that makes you wonder why? They looked great at top team Ipswich, they were better than us despite T.C getting two great lates. Anyway, They are gone and Sheff Wed's game v us is massive for them. Go one then push me to decide! Rotherham, Stoke and Swansea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
