That's insane.

On another note, years ago I could name nearly every clubs manager but I probably don't recognise half of them now thanks to saturated Premier League coverage.

Klopp 8th longest in the country. I don't even feel like he's been at Liverpool that long. Crazy nowadays, back in my day etc...

Top ten with length of time, quite surprising 4 are premier league managers. Only the top 46 have made a year so far

1 Jim Bentley Morecambe 8 years 46 days
2 Gareth Ainsworth Wycombe Wanderers 6 years 277 days
3 Eddie Howe Bournemouth 6 years 258 days
4 Sean Dyche Burnley 6 years 241 days
5 Mauricio Pochettino Tottenham Hotspur 5 years 32 days
6 John Coleman Accrington Stanley 4 years 283 days
7 Neil Harris Millwall 4 years 110 days
8 Jürgen Klopp Liverpool 3 years 263 days
9 Nigel Clough Burton Albion 3 years 203 days
10 Lee Johnson Bristol City 3 years 142 days

Lee Bowyer's on his way too, make that two places

I thought he'd just singed a new contract :shrug:

Apologies if I have missed the latest rupture at the valley.

That is mad! Before he has even managed a single friendly game he has at least 15 other managers of the 92 placed below him

Top half by end of 2019 I reckon.

Nice one [MENTION=12595]Acker79[/MENTION].

I wouldn't praise me too much. The last one of these I started was Hyypia's...

Martin O’Neill has gone. Potter climbs again.

Erm...

92 Vacant Nottingham Forest

Yep, its interesting here is a list of Liverpool managers. Shankly kept his job for 15 years with a 52% win rate Looking at Albion we have had 14 managers since the start of 2000 and 24 for the whole of the 20th century. https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/brighton-hove-albion/9/

With Rafa having gone and now Lampard leaving Derby, Potter is up to 77th.

I remember Harris getting hired at Millwall so well. I never would have thought it was over 4 years now.
