Jim Zorn broke DC’s heart first… seriously though, its more of an ownership issue.

Let’s cut the managers some slack. You can’t coach effort. Sometimes teams lose not because the Manager is “bad”. During the 2006-2007 NBA season, the Celtics won less than 30 games. The following season they won over 60 games plus the title. Same coach. They won more games and the title because they added 2 more star players (Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett).

Some coaches deserve to be sacked while some are wrongly sacked due to what I call “Wrong Diagnosis”. Imagine coming home at night after excessive partying, and finding yourself unable to unlock your front door. One possibility is that you are at the wrong house; another is that you are using the wrong key; and a third that you really are locked out – perhaps someone inside has engaged the deadbolt. Firing coaches due to wrong diagnosis is more common than people might think. How many coaches did New Castle hire and fire? They still got relegated due to wrong diagnosis of the problem. Coaches may have been just a small percentage of the problem.

Erm, how bout Mehmed Baždarević, of Grenoble. 0 points in 7 Ligue 1 matches for a team that finnished 13th last season? But of course everyone ignores Ligue 1. :)

Unay Emery! he kept Villa and Silva and Mata is improving every season, but he still can’t get that lousy defense to work. This weekend he gave up a win against Atletico.

*ahem*

Hertha has won two games against non 4th league opposition. We won the first game of the season, against Hannover. (Who then sacked their coach.)

I would add Roy Keane to that list.
Although I think he would walk (yet again) before being pushed.

Maybe an outside bet on John Barnes too.

Oh and Paul Sturrock at Plymouth. He must have got the chairmans backing by now.
