Manager Sack Watch

He left West Ham ten years ago, when aged 50. Apart from a few brief stints with Fulham as technical director, assistant coach and interim coach, he has stayed out of football. He doesn't even appear too often as a pundit.

Perhaps he is happy this way; he must have earned plenty of money to live comfortably. An offer good enough to tempt him out of retirement never materialised and, as you imply, the relegation scrap may not have appealed.

He had a dispute about his contract being paid up at West Ham. It took ages to resolve and he couldn't work until it was. I guess that he just ended up being out of the game too long.

Yeah it’s an odd one, he had two jobs that he never got sacked from with decent records so he must have had plenty of offers. Maybe the evolution of the role meant he didn’t fancy the reduced power over transfers etc or maybe he limited his options to stay in London for family reasons, as he’s only worked at Charlton West Ham and Fulham?

Classy from Bayern, announcing it while the guy is still in his current job with the season still to play out for them.

Yeah, they announced it right before the CL draw. Very strange timing, although it was known all along that Jupp Heynckes would only stay until the end of the season.

Tbh I've disliked them since they bottled the CL at home to Chelski.
Not helped since in the way they they just take players from their closest rival and the alliance with cheque book Pep
