Fat Sam.
West Ham have a nasty set of games coming up now and its likely they will slip into the bottom 3 during the Xmas period.

I never expected Clarke to be the next one to go!
West Brom aren't a sacking club normally. They must have someone lined up then.

A day or so old now but Warnock 2 to 1 and evens to be next manager at Leicester?
Perhaps if Pearson loses at the weekend he'll be out. Doesn't seem reasonable to me though.

That sounds ridiculous for Pearson to be out next. Leicester is right where they were expected to be, if not a little better.

Are Leicester having a bad season? Seems strange to me! Was checking a Leicester forum to see what they were saying about the weekend and came across a thread with a link to 'oddschecker'. Warnock favourite. As you imply though - why, unless Pearson is in the frame for another position. |

Looks like it's going to be Mackay; this is getting silly now.
(I almost feel sorry for them)
Cardiff City: Malky Mackay told to quit or be sacked by Vincent Tan
By David Ornstein BBC Sport
Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay has been told by owner Vincent Tan to resign or he will be sacked.
In a letter emailed to Mackay on Monday, it is understood Tan listed in depth his grievances with the Scot.
Tan criticised 41-year-old Mackay at length in a range of areas, such as signings, transfer budgets, results on the pitch and style of play.
The Malaysian businessman also questioned the former Watford manager's record as a boss.
Tan's controversies at Cardiff
Changed the shirt colours from blue to red and added a red dragon to the club's crest
Removed head of recruitment Iain Moody, and hired 23-year-old Alisher Apsalyamov, who was at work experience at the club and is a friend of his son
Tried to influence the tactics of the first team during matches, reports BBC Radio 5 live's Pat Murphy
Mackay has previously said he will not resign.
A Cardiff spokesman told BBC Sport: "The club is not party to any letter sent from one person to another."
The correspondence came on the same day the Malaysian businessman issued a statement through Cardiff chief executive Simon Lim criticising Mackay.
Tan said he was "extremely upset" after Mackay revealed he was hoping to recruit three new players in the January transfer window.
The ex-Scotland international, who was named Cardiff boss in June 2011, led the Welsh club to promotion from the Championship seven months ago, but his future became uncertain when head of recruitment, Iain Moody, was removed from his position in October.
Tan's concerns surrounds a perceived overspend of the transfer budget agreed between Mackay, Lim and Moody.
Cardiff broke their transfer record three times over the summer, signing striker Andreas Cornelius for £7.5m, defender Steven Caulker for £8m and then midfielder Gary Medel for £11m.
The owner claims the total budget was £35m and that £50m was spent including add-ons.
Mackay and Moody have denied those claims, insisting the £35m was solely for transfer fees and that Lim and Tan had no complaints about that rising with add-ons.

Obviously we all want Cardiff relegated, so we have the same interest as Cardiff's owner: Get Malky Mackay out of there.
But Cardiff's owner is both an idiot and ungrateful.

Ugh it was only a matter of time. The moment Cardiff were promoted wearing red, Tan's egomania was truly unleashed. It vindicated him and now not even god himself will stand in his way to do it Tan's way.
His business acumen is that of a shark. Had he not been buddies with Dr.M and his initial riches subsidised by the Malaysian government Tan would be running a back alley sweatshop somewhere in KL by now...

It's just hard to understand WHY people do things which seem so stupid and self-destructive. I understand firing a manager - even if popular - because you think he's failing. But here? Flashback  |

So it looks like Mackay is off. He's acting with some dignity though.
It will interesting to see who's tempted by the poison chalice next.
Perhaps Tan will give it to his son's mate.
Glad it's someone else these days.

If Mr Tan is giving advice during matches, no manager worth his salt will touch the job with a proverbial bargepole.
So now you get sacked for being successful. A manager may as well resign as soon as he gets a team promoted-except in our case, 'cos we got Arry.
