Up to 39th with the demise of Van Gaal

Nothing official yet ?

Still 40th, as Martin Ling leaves Swindon due to health concerns.

Imho that was a bad appointment in the first place..

What a spiteful thing to say. Anyone who knows the history of Martin Ling's battles with mental health problems can have nothing but admiration for his bravery and determination to address them.

He's a good man in an industry that is a frightening place to operate.

Just when we were warming to the old buffoon

Shocking thing to say.

 

[Stat Brother]

Shocking thing to say.

And yet once again not wholly unsurprising and not exactly out of character.

T'is a far cry from some of the comments on yesterday's thread.

Sack of goodwill disappears in 10 words.

Notts County sack Moniz so Hughton up a notch

Sorry if it came across in a bad light but I have full admiration for Martin Ling but think that it was a bad decision by their board to make him No 1. Taking into account his previous problems they should have appointed him in a less stressful role as DOF or similar or even No2 under another No 1.

Appointed after Hughton, so no change.

 

[Acker79]

David Dunn gone at Oldham, but appointed after Hughton, so he's still 40th.

Nathan Jones has moved up to 90th!

 

[Thunder Bolt]

It won't alter Hughton's position but John Sheridan has left Newport to go to Oldham.

Karel Fraeye: Charlton Athletic sack interim head coach

Karel Fraeye: Charlton Athletic sack interim head coach

Would Jonesy had a chance of that if he'd held on a week?

Based on some of the posts on here he should've stayed another couple of weeks here and then taken the vacant Albion job.

 

[Postman Pat]

Up again with Cotterill gone.

 

[Acker79]

Yup, into the the thirties now. 39.


I saw on twitter that Jose Riga is back at Charlton. That vacancy was filled quickly.

Ian Hendon has gone at Leyton Orient. Chris Hughton doesn't move, as he took over in May
