Seemed like he was doing a fairly decent job there. |  |

So has Gary Rowett from Millwall. |  | | |

I feel like they have probably reached a saturation point as a club
They're fairly well run and solidly in League One currently but unlikely to kick on much further
They were very well organised and a stubborn opponent last year, as we know all too well. |  |

I always thought they were horribly defensive under him last season - all set up to not lose rather than win, just didn't score enough goals.
oddly looks like they score (and concede) a few more this season, but no idea how they are playing as I've utterly wiped league one from my interests! |  |

Not playing them soon are we?!
A little surprised he didn't get the boot at the end of last season really when they completely cocked up getting in the play-offs. Underwhelming this year so far. | |

He'll somehow get some job soon despite having achieved nothing in management. | | | |

Football management seems to have a ridiculously short shelf life now, regardless of the level. All seems a bit mad really. |  |

Odd timing… surely it’s in the best interest of either party to have done this at the start of the international break? |  | | |

All lined up for Cowleys to return. |  |

Unless you were employed by Marcus Evans and rewarded for mediocrity with a 5 year contract.. | | | |

True, but ME didn’t really want to do things properly, more on the cheap. I don’t see how clubs expect to see success, changing managers after a winless run of 6 games. Look at Watford, seems like they’ve now bottomed out with their managerial revolving door. [Post edited 19 Oct 2023 8:00]

Play offs? They were something like 15 points off sixth place and never threatened the top six once.
Managed a few scalps last season but never play off contenders. |  |

You say that but they are 3 points off the top 6. It feels a bit Mick McCarthy, not always the prettiest but he gets them competitive and thereabouts. I guess it'll be a decision judged on who they appoint and how they end up doing. Millwall are a club that could easily fall through the division. | | | |

They finished 1 point outside the play offs - Millwall that is. [Post edited 19 Oct 2023 8:17]

yeah and were winning easily at half time in the last game to get in the play offs if i recall correctly. |  | | |

think that's harsh.
Look at the size of clubs and their situation, he's a good manager at what he does. | | | |

That argument doesn't stack up with Watford when they are now doing the worst they have under their ownership and this is the first time they're, currently, sticking with the manager. |  |

Stoke and the bunch of big time Charlies he had at his disposal. | | | |

They were in and and around the play-offs from around November onwards.
They were 2 points clear in 6th place going into the last day. Then were 3-1 up v Blackburn at half time before losing 3-4 and Sunderland sneaked in. I'd say that was a cock up. | |

Not really, the new guy was appointed in the summer. Is 10/11 games sticking with a manager? Valérien Ismaël is their 19th manager in 11 years. Ridiculous stat. | |

I agree it's lunacy, but through those 11 years they've spent half in the Prem and the other around the top 10 of the Championship. | |

8 points from last 9 games to then miss out by a point.
But think they are just a side who have relatively punched above their weight for so long it is seen as a failure when they don't and it just becomes boring for their fans.
Similar to Mick here, we finished higher than we should (Transfer spend, wages, resource, etc) for every season we had him but by the end it's hard to be excited by finishing 12th when you should finish 20th as both mean the same thing.....even when we struggled in 2016/17 we weren't even bad enough to get involved in a proper relegation scrap for some excitement!
Just a chance now for Millwall to refresh, but think they'll struggle to find someone who does 'better' relatively, but a change can be good |  |
