    West Brom sack Ismael. Cracking timing to do it just after the window closes  :D

    Which reminds me that I walked past Frank Skinner yesterday.

    Not really a shock, 14 points from 13 games. Surprised he wasn't sacked right after the Millwall game, why wait another 4 days?

    They've fallen away the last few months and may just scrape a play off spot, early on it looked like them, Fulham and Bournemouth would be contenders for automatic promotion.

    No mercy from owners nowadays, a few bad results wherever the team is placed in the table, the manager is going fast or gone .. the cliché 'lost the dressing room' is i m o much more prevalent now .. if players are dissatisfied they are not shy in expressing their opinions, not necessarily in public, but around the club .. at the end of the day, owners know that it's the players and their performances that decide games and not the managers yelling from the technical areas

    Second strata specialist lol .. thing is though he's ex Villa AND Brum City and that might not go down too well with the Baggies fans .. if he lives long enough Steve might do the full 92, as a manager

    West Brom should never have sacked Bilic when they did. They might still have gone down but, even if they had, he would have made a better fist of getting them back up again

    Looking at a list at the vast number of West Brom managers, unlike Watford it's a list of familiar names, the sorts who've been around the block

    Just this century it's included the likes of Megson, Pearson (caretaker), Mowbray, Appleton, Hodgson, Clarke, Pulis, Pardew, Bilic, and Allardyce

    With Bruce, all they need is Moyes to complete the set

    Never falls out with anyone. Never expects his players to be able to do all that he could on the pitch. Never likely to lose it - on or off the pitch. Unlikely to break your leg when he joins in a training game. Always likely to listen to a player's point of view. Enjoys a fantastic relationship with the media and never likely to to have a stand up row with a journalist asking a perfectly valid question.

    If only that were Roy Keane!

    I feel like he's mellowed a bit, some of the videos he did with Neville and Micah Richards showed a different side to him. But yes i fully appreciate he wouldn't be the easiest manager to work for. He did win promotion with them before as manager though.

    I like this bit i saw about him "Keane tackled his players' non-professional approach with a firm hand. When three players were late for the team coach to a trip to Barnsley in March 2007, he simply left them behind"

    If I were in charge of Sunderland I would give the job to McCann.

    Keane turns down Sunderland. 

    It is between McCann or Neil depending on which site you believe.

    It seems that the predecessor left over a disciplinary issue, so he's inherited a very good team

    Sunderland have dodged a big bullet there .. If 'I'll marmalise em' Roy of the Rovers had been appointed,. that would have ensured that Sunderland spend the next few seasons in L1 .. I cannot comprehend how he even got in the frame, he's yesterday's manager type personified

    Alex Neil is twice the manager Roy Keane is.

    For a guy who hasn't managed for a decade, openly admits he'd like to get back into management and you'd assume won't get many other offers, that's quite surprising.

    They sacked the previous manager then ?

    Chesterfield boss James Rowe has left the club by mutual consent.

    Our one, who's still at Exeter.

    Rowe was suspended as a result of accusations of bullying younger players and allowing his short fuse to get the better of him including on the bus back from a match. Allegedly. This is a flavour of the man - not sure if this is aimed at one of his players, the opposition or a fan - but be aware that there are rather a lot of expletives:

    I'd prefer a Roy Keane style and experience to the nicey fluffy NA school of management.  Just what  a L1 side needs.
