Tinkerman sacked. Ranieri goooorn after only 14 games at Watford (11 of which they lost).
Watford should have spoken to someone at Fulham before they appointed him.
They were looking a silver bullet of magic.
Ranieri was worth a shot. Howe would have been good too but that ship has sailed.
Relegation is inked in.

@bovidae Why Woy? Why?
You would think he could just retire at 74. He first was a manager in 1976!!!! He's almost reached 50 years in football management, not sure anyone could rival that for a duration. This is his 24th position. Just in England it is Bristol City, Blackburn, Fulham, Liverpool, West Brom, Palace and now Watford (and England).
What a tenure for Ranieri - only 2 wins but they were 5-2 at Everton and 4-1 at home to Manchester United (both managers now sacked).

Wow!! That is a great stat!!!
I had to look into that as I didn't believe it. Some context!
6 managers between founding (1902) to 1990. So average 15 years each!
then 18 manager changes since then! So it's 24 manager changes, but a lot of managers have come back
Roeder, Booking, Moyes have all done two stints, whilst Kevin Keen (don't know him) has done 3!

@majorrage Keen's still at West Ham. He's been caretaker on three occasions currently U18's coach. I remember him playing for them in the 80's
Crazily I remember every coach but the first three. Those three account for 60 years though.

Yes me too. Greenwood/Lyall covered 28 years between them. Those were the days ..... Watford's last pair of managers were more like 28 weeks.

Imminent transfer: Mason Greenwood from Manchester United to prison? Audio and images his ex-girlfriend has uploaded to social media are horrifying.
Perhaps his ex could make a complaint to the police instead of posting on Instagram...

Nothing in MSM on this yet ….
And the Daily Mail has the story too. Warning ⚠️ contains horrific images of alleged domestic violence.

Who says she hasn't? Daily Mail reporting that the police are investigating the matter.
