Just read that Bradford have appointed their fourth manager of 2018, having sacked their last one after six games.
Hiring and firing managers in this way must cost clubs a fortune, prevents young managers from progressing by not giving them the time and patience they need, and there is scant evidence that clubs are any the better for doing it. And if directors are repeatedly appointing managers they deem to be unsuccessful, shouldn't they also be questioning their own decision-making and expectation levels? I always think that if you have to sack two managers within a season, the problem is probably not managers.
It's often said that in the modern game, Alex Ferguson would have been sacked long before he won a thing with Manchester United. Does football need to adapt a more patient culture and should their even be some sort of manager 'transfer window' whereby clubs have to give their manager a certain amount of time before they can replace him?

Is that Bradford City or Bradford (Park Avenue)?

That rings true for Chester FC, and to what degree the real problems have been adequately dealt with then time will tell.

Think I bored people a lot by making this point whenever there were threads calling for Bignot to be sacked as early as November and December.

Don’t you just love it when “money” turns sour? Only a couple of years ago Pellegrini was a great manager at Manchester City, apparently nothing to do with buying success, and now he is the only manager yet to win a single point in The Premiership.
“West Ham United will face a compensation bill of almost £15 million should they sack Manuel Pellegrini as a result of their woeful start to the season. The Times understands that the club failed to insert a termination clause in Pellegrini’s contract when they recruited him from Hebei China Fortune in the summer, so the manager would be entitled to have his contract paid up in full unless both parties agree a severance package. I wonder what “the great Guardiola” would be like at a club without extravagant wealth.”

Same could be said for Chester FC. Since Neil youngs heroics in the glue leagues every manager has failed. Young, burr, McCarthy, bignot and even Bern and Jonno are having it rough already, can't all be shite.
