The sack race

[Shogun 721]

who do you think will be sacked (not resign/leave) first?

My guess is Rodgers once the protests start in November.

[Muzchap 8,966]

Mancini if he doesn't qualify out of CL group stage and/or sit at the top o the table come the summer...

Think the Arabs want success bad!

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Rodgers or perhaps, a bit surprisingly Mancini. AVB, even with the recent win, will always be on thin ice. Di Matteo is safe for a full season at least. After that, the Guardiola rumours will begin again.

[Sheva. 5,373]

Adkins, the media are beginning to use "pressure mounting" etc with him now.

[Jase 43,479]

Chris Hughton could be the one if results don't improve for Norwich soon.

[termninja 5,290]

Wouldn't be surprised if Hughes gets an axe too...QPR brought a lot of players yet results ain't comin'...

[Buffalo talks Blue 85]

I think it'll be Hughes but I want Mancini..

[diskoviolente 425]

I think Rodgers will stay this season if they get out of the relegation zone obviously. I think he is the right for that sad bunch.

Hughton is walking on thin ice, shame though, did well with Newcastle.

AVB is doing an AVB so far, getting impressive results when no one expects them to come, tbh it was either him or RDM to beat United this season and exploit their weaknesses. Swamp the midfield, overrun their "holding midfielder" put pressure on some mediocre and past it centrebacks and there you go. I am suprised that it took so long that a team actually get a result against this weak United side. Fulham nearly did it before, Everton did it at home, Liverpool were unlucky to not win against, they played so much better. I actually think this has something to do with AVBs mentality and what he drills his into the Spurs players. He is a maniac. I always liked him and don´t hold a grudge against him as a lot of people do on here. It was a good move to sack him, but i felt for him because obviously he got stabbed in the back and just wasn´t up for it to admit that he tried something good with the 'wrong' players.

Mancini: You never know, but the CL could be the trap for him. Sure, they are in the toughest group (on paper) but they don´t have a bad squad either to challenge Madrid and Dortmund (they have Rodwell and Sinclair!). I think they have to improve drasticially in the League as well. A scrappy win against Fulham yesterday, outplayed at home against Arsenal...you knever know. I don´t know who they want to get in if Mancini gets the sack.

Hughes: HAS TO STAY! Does a fantastic job at QPR. He defenitly brings them back up the season after next.

[blue_swaggin_96 96]

i don't think rogers will get sacked as most vote suggest!

i think hugh @ norwich will be sacked! i put my money his the first one!

even tho they are shite, i rate them high then hampton and the swansea.

[Jype 6,398]

No doubt it's either Hughes or Rodgers, around December sounds about right.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Voted Hughton but I have a feeling Laudrup will not end the season employed.

[Ollie 4,400]

I think Hughton as they have us next and then Arsenal i think after already a quite shocking start. If they lose both and maybe fail to win their next, he could be a gonner.

Hughes/Houghton

[Hutcho 8,443]

If it is Pardew then Newcastle will be bankrupt.

[Hutcho 8,443]

I think mark Hughes. They drew against us, though we played bad and were set up bad and i dont think thier rich owners will be too pleased with being bottom of the league right now.

[diskoviolente 425]

Voted Hughton but I have a feeling Laudrup will not end the season employed.

Hope Laudrup can turn things around at Swansea, although it doesn´t look good in the moment. What a strange start to the season for them.

I don't even think it's the manager, they just have the players to stay up this season imo. Every one knows their game now and how to stop them, add to that loosing key players like Allen and Sinclair and not really replacing them properly.

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Actually, I don't see Hughes lasting much longer.
