Óscar García is the [n]th longest serving manager in English football

[hart's shirt]

With Zola's departure today, 51 of the 92 teams have had their current managers for less than a year.

Ridiculous.

Is there a table somewhere showing how long each manager has been in each job? So not just the current ones, but all of them, since, say the beginning of the Premier League. It would be fascinating to see the likes of one-club managers (Shearer, for example), and what happened to those managers that did manage at the highest level (Glenn Roader, Christian Gross, are just two that spring to mind, but there might be loads of managers out there)?

Also, and this is getting a bit geeky, trends on the average number of months managers have been in jobs for, and how this has (presumably) fallen over the years. I know it used to be about 18 months, but I'm guessing it is less than that now. Might be one for [MENTION=12595]Acker79[/MENTION]…

Maybe they should have a window like the transfer window which would be the only time you could change your manager

Can I just point out that Oscar is the 18th youngest manager?

No. No you cannot.

Ridiculous.

Also, it means only one of the four Championship play-off managers from last season is still in place.

Is that a reference to rumours Mackay could be on his way to west brom, or is someone else looking precarious, too?

Might cause a bit of a domino effect

And he could be on borrowed time!

Unhappy times at Cardiff. I'm glad we have a chairman who fully understands how important history / tradition is to the fans.

Anyway, this link is the most accurate as it has OG at 68th and Moyes correctly placed. Let's see where he ends up after the xmas period which is notorious for sackings.

Boothroyd sacked at Northampton tonight.

Oscar moves up another notch

 

[GingerBeerMan]

67th?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Steve Lomas has been sacked by Millwall, so he moves up a place.

 

[Stat Brother]

Does anyone else see this thread then try to work out who's been sacked.

 

[Acker79]

It'll be interesting to see how far up the chart he gets before managers below him have been in the job long enough to get sacked.

 

[SeagullSongs]

n = 65 following the sacking of Steve Lomas and Malky Mackay.

 

[Rodney Thomas]

This is a great thread!

This just shows how ridiculous football is coming
