FUSA annual gaffer sacking pool.

So Coyle to Bolton is done. A lot will hinge on who Burnley gets to manage the club, but makes you wonder who stays up in this move.

I've got to think Burnley are in trouble and Bolton will just escape.

 

....and go work on your garden, whilst working on your tan.

 

Seems every club that sacks the manager is instantly linked to Curbishley by the BBC.

 

For the love of old NBA coach Gene Shue (aka Mr. Retread), isn't there any other manager candidates? I know it's probably too late to put the team in the hands of manager w/little top flight experience, but Megson, Curbishley?? Sorry Jozy, but I hope they get relegated.

 

Couldn't get Hughes or Grant so they went for Dowie!?!?

 

Who do you reckon is next?

My money (if I were a betting man, that is) would be on Zola. Unless West Ham have a miraculous next 4 weeks, I think he is out.

 

I would guess Zola to stay until the summer, when he will be sent on his way, but yes, he's the most likely to go beforehand.

Kind of funny how Burnley looked to the mighty Brian Laws to lead them out of relegation -- he should be the next to go. He ain't exactly Shankly reincarnated.

 

I think Dowie may now be the next manager sacked after Hull managed to lose after holding a 2-1 lead at about th 84 minute mark.

 

Per Soccernet, Zola has been given 2 games. Unfortunate; I like him and the style he brings to the game.

 

I could see McCarthy at Wolves giving him a run for it if they get on the wrong end of the next few results. Especially if Burnley or Hull can string together a win or two.
