L.Orient

I certainly have little sympathy with this particular manager, but is 29 days enough of a chance for anybody to start changing a team?

They thought he was the right man for the job 29 days ago.
How can they come to the conclusion he is not the right man after just 4 league games and 1 Cup match in charge.
Unless something has happened behind the scene, then how on earth can 4 league games without a win and an FA Cup defeat justify getting sacked.

The game has gone bonkers.  :zzz:

Surely something other than football results has lead to the sacking? Otherwise, this is crazy.

29 days as a manager isn’t bad at all, it’s not the shortest!

That was a great read. Still not a clue who Kevin Cullis is though. Google doesn’t seem too knowledgeable either.

Okay, I'll answer my own question.
Yes, there is, and it's not Cloughie.
Someone closer to home.

SoD didn’t last long at Crawley, didn’t manage a competitive match before he left for Forest.

Correct.
Can't remember if he was in charge for even one game, but he only lasted nine or ten days before packing in because of Uncle Ken's interference.
Thought you or Dutch would get it sooner or later.
