[Football] Crowd at Newcastle tonight

No not really, but this management lark is tough mentally and quite a few managers only have a short run of success, so why not change if the current boss whoever they maybe has lost their form.

I preferred the loyal days of players and managers but there all greedy nowadays if CH is offered the Palace job i bet his head would be turned.

This is echoed by the Championship Chairmen according this report.

The average tenure of a manager in the professional game in England has dropped to just 1.23 years - with the Championship the hardest league in which to keep your job.

The League Managers' Association has revealed that in the Championship, where there were 20 dismissals in the recently-completed season, the average spell in charge is just 0.86 years.

There were 47 manager dismissals in the 2014-15 season, the most since the 2001-02 campaign when 53 were sacked.

It's five years since Bloom sacked a manager.

Which is WAY too long. If Hyypiä hadn't done the decent thing and resigned, we'd almost certainly be scrabbling about in League One right now.

I am still of the opinion that Bloom gave Sami the choice of resign on your terms or don't and I'll throw you under the unemployment bus.
