I'm on Pardew at 18s, thought he'd open at about 1/2.

Ryan Giggs possibly? Probably should have been given the job before Bradley.

Don't think Giggs will want to start with a relegation on his cv

Roy Hodgson perhaps?

They seem to want Chris Coleman but I can't see him giving up the Wales job for a struggling team .

Roy Hodgson is a good shout.

It wouldn't surprise me to see Pardew immediately back in the game. They need an experienced top flight manager and it isn't going to appeal to someone like Coleman or Giggs much surely, so Pardew or Hodgson seem good shouts.

I genuinely thought this was another 2016 death post.

It seems a tough job at Bristol. There have been a fair few decent managers go there and none have been able to produce what the fans and board want. There is good potential there-plenty of fans a decent set up. They could potentially do well  in the premier league, it's just getting there that's a big problem.
They're not alone with that a few clubs of a similar size also want at least a season in the top league. If Ryan Giggs wants a really tough challenge take the City job.

are you sure their official website says nowt

"8 Dec 2016 - Bristol City head coach Lee Johnson signs a new contract to stay with the Championship club until 2020."

the bloke has " no ability" i don't believe he was the one "managing" Dingles when they won 7 in a row after about 8 losses in a row

Someone on Radio Sheffield "gave the game away" in an interview i remember it well said something about changing the way they played (decision not made by LJ)

can anyone remember when Dickov was talked about as next Wednesday manager and he was only 5/2 (favourite) to get the job for a short while   

bbc still has a picture of him on the Rovers bit of their website

it seems if you can talk a load of bull$hit nowadays you can extend the "half life" of the managers job

 

Barnsley fans wanted rid of him
