RG30 Ainsworth's to turn down now. Would be amazed if he doesn't accept. Close to his home, ex player and impressive new training ground opening this summer in Helston.


That’s a hell of a trek each day


That's the sort of place that Warnock has lived in recent years regardless of which club he has managed so it is doable.
On the other hand Heston would be more convenient for a QPR manager. :wink:

Nice, has he told them he doesn't want to work weekends?

Isn’t there a bit of a rivalry between Wycombe and Colchester from their non league days, this should add to this.

Wow! He took Colchester from 89th in the FL to 87th in just 4 months, can imagine Wycombe fans being a little underwhelmed with that, even given his 20 years or so at Adams Park as a player.

They had 6pts from 10 games when he went there and were looking like dead men walking. Picked up 29pts in 22, which is a pretty strong turnaround and leaves them with close to zero chance of relegation.

Not a bad start to managerial life.

Its not a bad appointment given the history, Wycombe supporters will be happy someone is in charge who cares about the club and has an affinity to it. You can certainly see why the Wycombe board appointed him.

Royals and Racers Oxford sack Karl Robinson.


Very mixed reaction from Oxford United fans with the main bulk either wanting him to stay, or quietly accepting change is needed but was not his fault but something needs to change.

Lots of comments about his private life was to blame - any news on that?

Lots of money going down on Pochettino to be the next Chelsea manager, very soon!

Be interesting to see what they do over the next few years. They've been in and around the play off/promotion picture for the last couple of seasons and are now languishing around the lower end of the table. There have been plenty of clubs that have been spending a lot of money to push for promotion in League One that have subsequently never made it higher and dropped down the divisions with financial issues, such as Southend and Scunthorpe and, to a lesser extent, Bradford.

Cannot stand how that club operates. They seem to go under the radar a bit but they are rancid.

In fairness, they’ve had a lot more success than other clubs doing it that way!

Chris WIlder in at Watford. Shame really, would have liked him at Reading.

Not sure, tbh. When we played Middlesborough earlier in the season they were horrific.

Carrick has really turned them around and are playing the way Wilder should've had them playing.
