    This is/was inevitable after he criticised the board yesterday for selling their best players in the summer. Doing that never ends well for the Manager

    Chris Wilder to be reappointed with Alan Knill, Matt Prestridge and Keith Andrew coming in to support.

    I thought Warnock was on his way. He gives them as good a chance as any of staying up, but it'll be Wilder.

    Football is idiotic these days

    It used to be that relegated clubs would keep their manager and give him a chance to get them back up

    And it often worked

    Apart from Alan Durban

    I think we got it wrong both times when promoted to the prem, especially the first.

    McBurnie put the final nail in his coffin getting sent off early, losing 5 nil to a bottom teams also just promoted was always going to be too much.

    Surely their 'business model' was spend nothing, get relegated, and use the parachute money to build a decent team to win promotion again - with a more realistic chance of staying up.

    Is this the latest in a season that this is the first management sacking in the premier league ?

    Having Mark Hudson as a defensive coach won’t have helped
