I've decided to start a thread (and update it periodically in breach of all OTF etiquette about not replying to your own otherwise nil-threads) to monitor the median time-to-date in office of managers at the 92 English league clubs.
As I noted 11 days ago on the "Rodgered" thread, the median time then was 329 days. Thanks to a sacking-free 11 day period (and counting) since then, the median time has now gone up to 340 days. I wonder what the chances are of its hitting the giddy heights of 1 year. Today is, incidentally, the first day for a while when 45 managers can claim 1 year or longer in post, i.e. just one club short of half the total.
So, as of now: 340 days. {edit: it was 341 actually, by my counting from 16 December. Maybe the wiki page writer excludes both the day of appointment and the current day.)
