    As per the EPL thread, Brighton accrued 11 points in Hughton's last 18 games, one fewer than Fulham.

    I missed Billy Wilkinson leaving Wealdstone on Friday. Not too sure why.

    Brighton were, until the move to the Amex, getting an average of 8K. That went up to 20K in the first season their, settling on 25K in the Championship, rising to 30K now. That's an awful lot of people who are along for the ride, and who, frankly, were bored shitless by Hughton, wondering 'is this it?'

    He's a nice guy but his teams play mindnumbingly dull football. And before anyone says anything about the Premier League, Brighton did that in the Championship too. BHA came to Turf Moor in March for a top 6 game, Brighton scored within a minute through Zamora, conceded a minute later and Hughton said "enough of this sort of nonsense" and shut the whole game down for the remaining 88 minutes.

    Pretty much anyway up to 10th is available to any club that has been in the Premier League more than a single season. Hughton didn't seem to have the ambition for even that.

    It is a shame. Hughton seems to be on the same managerial tier as Warnock, can get a team promoted but struggles in the Premier League.

    He had a very similar experience at Norwich if I recall correctly, struggling to integrate expensive signings (I'm thinking of van Wolfswinkel etc) and slowly losing the team.

    Are you talking about Man Utd?

    It's a shame but remembering how good Brighton looked a little while back, they've clearly regressed. Did any of this season's signings work?

    Warburton our new manager according to the usual suspects. Eustace stays on too apparently. Could be worse, whether they'll just be next year's sacrificial goats remains to be seen of course.

    We're about to find out. Although Plymouth could even get the bounce, win and still go down.

    Gillingham almost did it, sacking Lovell with two games left.

    Yeah, Chris Ramsey too. LF had apparently tried to hire Sherwood after Hasselbaink but was over-ruled upstairs.

    Hardly surprising though, considering Ferdinand and Sherwood worked together at Spurs for nearly six years. On the plus side that friendship should be over some time in November.

    Word is the job's Tim Sherwood's if he wants it. Groans can be heard from Wembley to Ealing.

    When, oh when, are we going to do a proper search for a manager. We change them so often you'd think the club would have a process in writing by now

    John Eustace takes us to the end of the season. I guess if he won six of the eight games remaining he'd be in with a shout, did well with Kidderminster. The board have always gone for bright shiny toys though. Rangel's popular, worth keeping around as a player/coach possibly.

    Angel Rangel perhaps? I wish he was still a Swan.

    The bigger question now is not who do hire next as who makes the choice? The backstage Ferdinand/Hoos/Ramsay part has been doing OK. The board, Fenandes et al, who apparently get to choose the manager, not so much. Now Amit Bhatia's back that could change. I sincerely hope so.

    No surprise. Saturday's utterly rank performance against Bolton was indeed the final straw. It was all going so well until Christmas too...

    McClaren sacked by QPR. One win in fifteen games and defeat by Bolton the final straw.

    I disagree. He led them there and was manager of the club prior to that. It's irrelevant whether the spell started outside the top tier.

    There should be an asterisk there for sure.

    Hurst is favourite for the Southend job, apparently.
    I'd say he is more likely to get the Scunny job at the end of the season. Having said that, if they go down, he won't be interested.

    I'm not sure why non-league shouldn't count as part of a managers spell in charge of a club.

    Hurst is a good manager. He went to the wrong "big club".
