Stunned. They're not going anywhere this season, so it's not as if bringing a new person in was time critical. What a shoddy way to dispense with them.
Former Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds United boss Garry Monk has been named as the new Cambridge United head coach on a contract to the summer of 2026. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68468127
Celta Vigo have sacked manager Rafael Benitez after less than nine months.
Former Liverpool and Chelsea boss Benitez, 63, joined the La Liga side on 23 June last year and departs after winning just five of his 28 league matches in charge of Celta.
Question re Nuno at Forest, is his record any better than what Cooper was doing?
Short answer is "yes" though the differential is marginal and Nuno, with just one in the last nine matches, is on the sort of run that got Cooper the sack:
Cooper - 14 points from 17 matches (0.82pts per game) Nuno - 11 points from 12 matches (0.92pts per game)
Mowbray has been unwell, more or less since Birmingham appointed him, but this would be an amazing development
They'd better get something sorted soon. Their next match is on Good Friday away to QPR ! Birmingham also have to play Rotherham & Huddersfield as well as Leicester & on the last day they are playing Norwich.
Plymouth sack Ian Foster , haven't scored in 5 home games and only 1 point off the relegation zone. Director of Football Neil Dewsnip put in charge
He was a brave choice, but perhaps someone more experienced would have been a better one. The fashion for appointing managers with a background in academy and international youth team football does seem to have delivered mixed results. I think it's particularly hard to come in to a club midseason without the old school experience of managers experienced pros.

No surprise really. 1 win in 11 and just 13 points from their last 15 games. I've been saying for a few weeks now i could see them getting sucked into trouble.
Their next 2 games are Rotherham away and QPR at home. If they don't win either of those then they'll be going down.

Another England Youth Manager struggling in the club game.
Rob Edwards with Luton and Forest Green must be one of the few successful ones.
Rob Edwards also had a much better playing career, playing at a decent level, so had the knowledge of the men's professional game that training elite kids doesn't give you.

Didnt realise it was that Rob Edwards, who'd played for Wolves actually

Be interesting to see how it works out.
Wouldnt have been a name that I'd have been disappointed with had he been appointed here
Not seen him name linked with other clubs, reminds me a bit of Adkins coming from nowhere to become our manager.

Obviously I've no idea if they were true but would explain why no clubs wanted to touch him, I'm surprised Cambridge have to be honest.
Neil Warnock leaves Aberdeen
Watford sack Valerin Ismael, appoint Tom Cleverley as interim.
Cooper - 14 points from 17 matches (0.82pts per game)
Nuno - 11 points from 12 matches (0.92pts per game)
Accrington Stanley have appointed interim boss John Doolan as their first team manager on a three-year contract.
The 55-year-old has been in charge for three games after taking over when long-serving manager John Coleman was sacked earlier in March.
