Decent signing did see some rumours about him coming back to Utd this summer and think Spurs looked at him before going for Forster as they needed a home grown players.
 
Vieira sacked.

He was doing an okay job at the start of the season - they have a decent core of attacking players but they just cannot score goals. Ultimately that’s what has cost him his job.
 
Not really surprised just seemed to be drifting along.

Seems odd to sack him the weekend before an international break.

They seem to lose every week but still stay in 13th.

Maybe losing to their main rivals Brighton lost him the last bit of good will he had from the fans.
 
Roy Hodgson appointed until the end of the season.
 
Seems like a very safety first appointment which I guess is what need. I doubt he will be there next season but he should have enough to keep them up.
 
Yeah although the thing that's dragged them into relegation trouble is the lack of goals not them being wide open at the back.

None of their strikers actually score and it's a massive problem for them.

You'd think he'd want to put his feet up, he can't need the money and he'll be 76 in August, if Sheila doesn't want him under his feet he should just get himself an allotment, or have an affair, could do both!
 
Think you find it a lot with football managers they can't just be at home doing nothing there life has been football for so long and being a manager seems to be a horrendous job for work/life balance. There's no switching off from it.

Interesting tactic by Palace bring in a new manager who can clear out all of the players Roy won't let go of build a new squad then bring back Roy to manage them.
