Soon to be 6th

 

[BarnhamBlue]

when i originally added the list to this thread i didn't realise it was the kiss of death:

For the start of 2013/14 season, its likely to look like this:
Alex Ferguson 26 years, 182 days GONE
Arsène Wenger 16 years, 218 days
David Moyes 11 years, 54 days GONE
Tony Pulis 6 years, 327 days GONE
Paul Tisdale Exeter City 6 years, 315 days
Greg Abbott Carlisle United 4 years, 185 days
Chris Wilder Oxford United 4 years, 137 days
Nigel Clough Derby County 4 years, 119 days
Roberto Martínez Wigan Athletic 3 years, 326 days GONE
Gus Poyet 3 years, 178 days Likely to go?!?!?!
Rberto Mancini 3 years, 139 days GONE
Mark Yates Cheltenham Town 3 years, 136 days

Pat on the back for Exeter, Carlisle, Oxford who have shown incredible faith in their managers.

Martinez moves aside. Now up to 6th.

I wonder if by the time this suspension nonsense is sorted out he will have moved into the top five.

And people question the loyalty he has shown or has been given......

And one could question his ability as a salesman, he certainly has put his name in the frame enough.

I am longing for the day that he becomes number 1 on this list. It still feels like yesterday that we were enduring a relegation scrap at Withdean.

There was an article in When Saturday Comes this month (or last month?) about Greg Abbott's reign at Carlisle. The fans don't seem to agree that the club deserves a pat on the back for sticking by him, as they seem to stumble on between Leagues 1 and 2 with no ambition. Not once since he's been manager have they won three games in a row.

Have they won from behind?

Isn't moyes officially taking over on July 1st, so, one assumes, both he and ferguson are still technically, in their roles as Everton and utd managers respectively, so gus hasn't moved up so far (not sure about the technicality on Martinez - is he just not renewing and so still manager until the end of June, or has he quit with immediate effect?, or pulis - has he been sacked immediately, or are stoke opting not to renew his contract, again leaving him technically in charge until it expires?)

 

[BensGrandad]

I hope that Gus eventually becomes the longest serving whilst still with us but wont build my hopes up too much.

 

[BarnhamBlue]

Now back to the drawing board, Oscar will be the 92nd longest serving manager in the league. However, i believe Moyes and Martinez do not start their new roles until 1st July, so already upto 90th!

 

[KingstonSeagull]

Oscar is already beating Gus on this table...

Oscar is not a manager remember so does he even get on the list.

 

[Uncle C]

Russell Slade is still well up there with Orient.

 

[KingstonSeagull]

I am pretty sure as soon as Gus has got his mits on a settlement and buggered off Oscar will be named Manager officially or will just be doing the same role just with this new title... Pretty sure its just legal bollocks

This thread jinxed him

Although we do now have the 92nd longest serving manger/head coach in the football/premier league!

 

[BarnhamBlue]

Just like snakes and ladders

 

[BarnhamBlue]

OG has only been in the job since June, but already climbing the ladder - up to 82nd. The football world has gone crazy!!!

Will OG ever reach the top 10? In about 2 years at this rate!
