    Paul Ince! Still time for curbs to save us.

    Was expecting the sacking, wasn't expecting Ince to arrive. He's not managed since 2014

    Weird timing too, as they sacked him after they actually won a game

    I suspect that it's the same old story when this happens. Everything is in place, including the manager's replacement, bar the announcement. Most of the time the plan to announce it coincides with another poor performance and on occasions, as part of a smooth "transition", the manager is informed and settlement agreed in advance of that game.

    Morecambe's Manager: Stephen Robinson looks set to go to St Mirren

    Surprised he's going back to Scotland, to a club that cant be much better than League One

    Wonder if Morecambe will get Derek Adams back

    This probably actually suits all parties.

    Morecambe look like they are imminently destined to be a League 2 club though - they are in the relegation zone and have won just twice in their last 14 games. The likelihood is that he was going to be sacked shortly anyway and if Morecambe really wanted to keep him they would but have given permission to St Mirren to talk to Robinson having agreed a six figure fee as compensation. Adams is also going to be their highest paid Manager of all time. A change of manager at Morecambe might give them a "bounce" sufficient to keep them in the division.

    St Mirren have appointed Stephen Robinson as their new manager after a compensation package was agreed with English League One side Morecambe.

    The former Motherwell boss has signed a two-and-a-half-year deal to succeed Jim Goodwin, who left for Aberdeen.

    Morecambe would have expected relegation though, it was a miracle they went up at all, so I doubt they would have sacked Robinson

    Getting a chastened Adams back is a perfect replacement so yes it does work out well

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/17708127/roy-keane-sunderland-manager-contract/

    ROY KEANE rejected a return to management with old club Sunderland because of the length of the contract.
    The Black Cats would only guarantee the Sky Sports pundit a position for the season.
    Keane was not happy with the length of contract he was offered by Sunderland
    Keane, 50, would have needed to shelve his lucrative TV deal to risk it all on gaining League One promotion.
    The Irishman was not concerned about the drop in wages but there was no chance for him to plan ahead with the initial suggestion of a short-term stay.
    Grant McCann was also offered a similar short deal, likewise stalwart Neil Warnock.
    In the end Alex Neil took the post on a reported one-year rolling contract.

    An amazing collapse there, when they were playoff contenders at the end of November. Now they have genuine relegation fears

    2 point in the last 10
    1 goal in the last 9

    Joe Gallen (one of Steve's brothers) has also left

    Only appointed at the end of October!

    I'm sure there must be a high correlation between "3 managers in a season" and relegation. We've done it twice for a start - Dowie, Reed, Pardew and Luzon, Fraeye, Riga.

    Another reason why Jackson cant be replaced between now and the end of the season...

    Carlisle sack Keith Millen

    Carlisle United have named Paul Simpson as manager for the remainder of the season to replace the departed Keith Millen, who left after 22 games.

    Simpson returns to the Cumbrians for a second stint, having guided the club to back-to-back promotions in his first spell in charge at Brunton Park.

    Matt Harrold and Brian Saah will take temporary charge at Orient. I had half expected Darren Pratley to be offered a role!

    True but to be fair you're not really likely to need 3 managers in a season unless you're doing really badly and therefore obviously going to be relegation candidates.

    He's already there i'm led to believe but only on a temporary basis until the end of the season.

    Wow. It'll be fascinating how that goes, Bradford are the epitome of a sleeping giant, but a succession of managers have failed there

    Cant believe he's been out of Management for four years now.

    Feels a bit like when Dave Jones went to Hartlepool

    Question if he has the right approach for League Two Football at that level.

    Don’t know why but can see this appointment going down the same road with us and Adkins.!

    I don't fancy their chances of him doing well there to be honest.

    Epitome of an old fashioned managers whose methods have stopped working, and who is on the decline.
