2022-23 Season - Manager Dismissals, Resignations Etc

[Grist_To_The_Mill]

When you look at it, when a manager / head coach lose their jobs, its not just the
manager, it most cases its the backroom staff also losing their jobs, because a
new manager / head coach will want to bring in his own backroom staff.

So with Wigan Athletic sacking manager Leam Richardson, who just signed a new
3 year contract, his backroom staff he fetched in, will surely have signed a new
contract also.
So will backroom staff be looking after team affairs, then get the bullet when a
new manager is appointed, who perhaps will fetch in his own backroom staff.
so eventually Wigan have to pay compensation to ex-manager Richardson, then
the backroom staff.

Or you get the Derby/Warne scenario when the troops all defect together

If only the manager moves then it gives other clubs ( like us) a chance to try to sign support staff

With This unique World Cup break maybe some clubs think it’s gives them time to find someone else whilst not playing games.

Or chance to spend more time on the golf course and adding to the tattoo collection

According to SE on a recent podcast, most new contracts signed these days only include one month's notice for dismissal. That's one reason why weekly/monthly pay rates have gone up to offset the fact that there is less security in the job. This has been done in part to get away from the situations where clubs have been unable to sack their manager due to the fact they couldn't afford to.

Scottish club Rangers are said, to want to sack their manager, but can not afford the compensation.
It would seem compensation for a sacked manager / head coach is what is written in the contract.

A bit harsh imo! He has done a great job but a run of 6 losses in 7 has had someone pulling a P45 out of the desk drawer. I think it gives ourselves some measure on how well we are doing this season when you look at the positioning of the table.....the only trouble is, it's when you look at the actual points!

Championship

Leam Richardson .............. Wigan Athletic, sacked as manager ----------- 10 November 2022

[ Richardson only signed a new 3 year contract 3 weeks ago, but a 7 game winless run ]

I put 8 winless run, should be 7 winless run, last win 1-0 v Blackburn 11th October 2022
in my original post.

Frank Lampard manager at Everton, is walking a tightrope, could be getting his P45

Plus David Moyes manager at West Ham, doesn't look like he's on the Hammers fans
Christmas card list.

Premiership management picture could look a whole lot different by the time the World Cup is done. It may seem wild but there's a strong possibility Potter will be gone from Chelsea (and he's not due 'much' compensation apparently, about 4 wks pay around 100K)
