Martin Allen a SHOE-in to get the COBBLERS job now I reckon. Survival specialist as they're at the FOOT of the table.

Lost 4-1 at home to Wycombe and it's goodbye to Mr Hoof It. Unbelievable that he was managing in the Premiership not so long ago and reckoned to be the best young coach out there

Quite. Boothroyds fall from grace has been quite rapid for somebody who the press were drooling over not so long ago. Rather like that Stockport Manager who turned us down before Slade got the job - What was his name? He was supposedly a potential top manager in the making. When he told Uncle Dick, thanks but no thanks, I think we dodged a bullet there. His managerial career went down the pan pretty rapid too.

It can be a short shelf life as a Manager. Flavour of the month one minute and past your sell by date the next.

Glad to see he's been sacked to be honest. Long ball merchant at it's worst.

Got lucky with Watford at the time with the players they had but it is pretty scary that people were touting him up so much at the time.

At Watford Boothroyd signed Malky Mackay (on a free) who took over from Boothroyd as caretaker before Brendan Rodgers was appointed and Mackay then took over from Rodgers when he resigned. Maybe now Boothroyd will take over at Cardiff if Mackay is sacked after losing to Rodgers…...
