Dead man walking as soon as he walked into Goodison.

Still, several million pound payoff for 6 months work. Lucky f***.

Ranieri sacked...12 games or something is quite a decent lifespan for a Watford manager <laugh>

Across the last twenty years a quick cross check shows they’ve had about twenty four managers including caretaker roles.

They're even beating their sister club Udinese, who has 23 managers in the past 20 years. <laugh>

They are running the club like no other I think. Apparently they don't let managers bring their own coaches, and the owners don't see the manager as the most important position. They sound like the Dallas Cowboys of football, where the owner runs the show.

People can say what they want but it kind of works for Watford.



He did well at Palace all in all, despite them being awful to watch. But I can't see his methods / approach with a very different type of Watford squad working (hopefully...).

Apparently, Watford haven't kept a clean sheet in six managers
