Boom, headshot.

I picked him not because I thought he was a particularly bad manager but because the Watford board seem quite trigger happy and newly promoted sides typically struggle.

Looks like Watford FC's revolving door is being put to use. I see Claudio Ranieri is being lined up for the next manager to try it out. Still, will be a decent payday for him when the invevitible sacking comes.

I imagine that can be only reason why any manager would take the Watford job; they get paid and a payout when the sacking comes.

I feel sorry for the fans when I say this, but I hope Watford FC sinks like a stone. Sadly though, it does seem to be working for them. :/

Cant see him lasting or staying that long. Out before Xmas perhaps?

I think we should update the poll to whether I ban the 3 people that voted Xisco after he was sacked. Some people have no shame.
