Manager Sack Watch 2013/14

West Brom lost their director of football to the FA in March. His replacement not quite as good apparently.

Di Matteo has already been sacked by them once and Jol is just an easy connection due to playing there, though I would expect his name to be on any list of candidates.
 
Modern football managers, it's a bloody tough gig.. Who'd do it? This time last year Clarke was being hailed as a bit of a genius..
 
Cardiff City: Malky Mackay told to quit or be sacked by Vincent Tan

By David Ornstein BBC Sport

Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay has been told by owner Vincent Tan to resign or he will be sacked.

In a letter emailed to Mackay on Monday, it is understood Tan listed in depth his grievances with the Scot.

Tan criticised 41-year-old Mackay at length in a range of areas, such as signings, transfer budgets, results on the pitch and style of play.

The Malaysian businessman also questioned the former Watford manager's record as a boss.

Mackay has previously said he will not resign.

A Cardiff spokesman told BBC Sport: "The club is not party to any letter sent from one person to another."

The correspondence came on the same day the Malaysian businessman issued a statement through Cardiff chief executive Simon Lim criticising Mackay.

Tan said he was "extremely upset" after Mackay revealed he was hoping to recruit three new players in the January transfer window.

The ex-Scotland international, who was named Cardiff boss in June 2011, led the Welsh club to promotion from the Championship seven months ago, but his future became uncertain when head of recruitment, Iain Moody, was removed from his position in October.

One of Tan's concerns surround a perceived overspend of the transfer budget agreed between Mackay, Lim and Moody.

Cardiff broke their transfer record three times over the summer, signing striker Andreas Cornelius for £7.5m, defender Steven Caulker for £8m and then midfielder Gary Medel for £11m.

The owner claims the total budget was £35m and that £50m was spent including add-ons.

Mackay and Moody have denied those claims, insisting the £35m was solely for transfer fees and that Lim and Tan had no complaints about that rising with add-ons.

I actually wouldn't mind Levy telling Malky Mackay that he can have the rest of the season here if he wants it.
 
Spurs' next permanent manager is only 150/1 to be the next Premier League manager sacked. We really are a fukking nuthouse.
