Cleverley the only manager since Gracia to make it to 50 games in charge. No manager has reached 100 games at the helm for Watford since Aidy Boothroyd in 2008.

Absolute madness.

Steven Gerrard in talks to go back to Rangers

The team that he would inherit is nearly as poor as the one he had to deal with in the lower divisions last time around.
It sounds as though there is a bit more money about the place now so he might be able in time to buy in some better quality players with , at the moment, only Raskin and Tavenier that look up to the standard required.

A big job for anybody .

I'm going to start a narrative that the more Slot coaches, the worse they get!

Also going to add another £100M+ on how much was spent every time I mention it.

Is this in the right thread?

Yes, if you spend £500M you'd expect him to do better

This topic has been all about those that have been sacked, are about to be sacked or are getting a new job.
I'm not sure where your bit fits.

He's defo on his way out after spending £500M and not coaching them very well

Can we assume that net spend of £170m for 10th is better than net spend of £230m for (currently) 2nd ?

Can we also assume that this is a desperate attempt to take your mind off the coaching prowess of the current United manager ?

Slot's team reminds me somewhat of Ten Hag's at Utd i.e. a huge gaping hole in the midfield (polo fc) waiting to get countered.

I also know the game, hence talking shit during an international break, knowing full well we could get battered at Anfield

I assume this was aimed at me ... you couldn't be further from the truth

But you crack on if it makes you feel better

A club entirely built around the new manager bounce and players upping their game to impress the new guy.

Everything wrong with football

If you think it's aimed at you, then ya know...

Maybe you could flesh out your story a bit!

There are a lot of southern LFC fans on here who were maybe at the age you start supporting a team and choose the team who are doing the best because yes, they're glory hunting

As a non-Manc of a certain age does the same accusation hold true for you Brobs?

I'm from Manchester, moved south when I was about ten.

I rem being really surprised that people didn't support the local team. It was only City/Utd where I was from (7/8ths Utd btw).

where abouts in Manchester?

(heads up - I am going to search for some lower league team that was closer to your home than Old Trafford was, then call you plastic!)

Not sure about the early bit. I was born in Stepping Hill Hospital (which I think is Stockport), and my sister* was born in Salford General.

I do remember living in Salford for a bit and then moving just outside Manchester to Astley (near Eccles)

looks like you could have been loyal and supported Stockport County, Stockport Town, Adswood United or Cheadle Town FC. but instead you went plastic. you sicken me.
