Fark me and Douglas Greedman still has a job. Has the world gone mad?

What do we know about Francesco? He seems to have a lot of money if he was considering buying Reading or Birmingham.
Poor old Russell. On a hiding to nothing.

Same old SALDE, gets a lot of cash to spend and can't handle it.
I did think this thread was going to be about Noddy Holder being ill.

He's had a few injury setbacks but does seem to grind out those results that are needed, very consistently too. They'll be mad to let him go!

Quite.
Is there any other industry where the senior manager carries the can all the time? Players lose form for weeks, months or even whole seasons and yet, they are still paid vast sums of money for complete underachievement. It defies belief. You couldn't make it up.

It's a weird state of affairs when the employer (club) is essentially unable to take any action against an entire set of under-performing employees (players).
Sure, the chairman could support his manager and state that the players haven't been giving it their all, except that will likely result in a monumental sulk, a transfer request and an asset being offloaded at a loss just to shut them up...I wish I were a footballer.
