I bet Monk's worked out already what he can spend his 3 years and 3 months payoff on this summer! ?

I wonder how many points to stay up this season? I reckon 48 minimum for 3rd bottom so probably need 49 points. That's 6 wins and a draw from remaining 11 games. Big ask for Brum.

M'boro home tonight and Cardiff away Saturday. Reckon they will get max of 1 point from that lot. I also think Monk is overrated. Happy days lol

I really hope you're right mate but fear the new Manager syndrome will give them a lift and I can't believe that a squad with so many talented individuals will actually finish below Sunderland, Burton and Barnsley but I would love it if that was to happen.

I think you are right about Brum but even worse I reckon survival may be less than that maybe 45 points or so for the final slot, there are too many clubs at the bottom in poor form who are not going to go on a 50% win run at this stage or anything like it..

It wont be 50 points this year that keeps you up imho. The average for those years would be a good marker.

Pardew is reported that he will be speaking with the Board about his position - I think it may well be the other way round, Alan!

The board will speak he will listen

Other than letting the new man take stock of things ready for next year will changing manager actually change anything?

By all accounts, not popular with anyone other than team mates in that Palace side in 1990. You'll struggle to find anyone else in the game with a good word to say about him, he never tipped the hostesses at the casino as only lost!

Rowett losing the plot a bit against Forest in the East Midlands derby, pressure telling it seems as Derby do their usual end of season slide. Promotion or sack I would have thought in his case, play offs the minimum.

They won’t pull the trigger yet.

Wait until the end of the season, when they lose in the play offs.

Promoted under Hoddle via the play-offs to the Prem in May 1993 (though he left for Chelsea before the start of the 93/94 season).

Anyhow, it's probably easy enough to forget that, but surely you must remember their 'season in the sun' - four wins the whole season, over 100 goals conceded and (inevitable) relegation, to be followed by another straight after?

I'd say they are a club which befits Phil Brown's status. ;)

Fair play for picking me up on the promoted to the Prem bit. Shamefully, I have no recollection of that :(

I must have been asleep after all!!!

Did they also not get promoted under Ardiles but were thrown out because of financial irregularities and put in league 1?

From a Swindon message board

Macari is replaced with ex-Argentinian international and World Cup winner Ossie Ardiles - but the club is rocked with a bombshell just three weeks before the season starts, when The People publishes revelations that chairman Brian Hillier put money on Swindon winning Division Three in 1987, as an insurance policy for player bonuses. The allegations seemed to affect performances on the pitch - and the Town win just one of the first seven games, and are 21st in the table. Eventually though, Ardiles' passing style and diamond formation begin to work, and they drop just four points in the next nine games - despite the sale of Phil King, who is surprisingly bought by Sheffield Wednesday for a record £400,000. The allegations then get worse - and Hillier is accused of putting money on the Town to lose in the FA Cup game at Newcastle two years previously. When he is found guilty, he is banned from football for six months - which is increased to three years on appeal. Macari is fined £1,000 for his part in the scandal - and when he chooses to appeal, West Ham force his resignation. Swindon's performances again suffer, and they pick up just two points in the five games that follow the announcement. A decent start to the year puts Swindon back on track, but The People deliver a third blow, this time alleging illegal payments to players. Despite the turmoil though, the Town beat table-topping Leeds to go into third place, and at the end of the season, they finish fourth - their highest league position ever - to go into the play-offs. Shortly before the last game of the season, another bombshell hits, when Hillier, Macari, captain Colin Calderwood and secretary Vince Farrar are all arrested and questioned by Inland Revenue officials over a tax fraud conspiracy. Calderwood is released without charge, and the others are given bail - on the pitch, the Town go on to defeat Blackburn over two legs to reach the final at Wembley, where they will play for only the second time in their history. In a match they completely dominate, Alan McLoughlin scores the only goal - a deflected effort - to defeat Sunderland and win promotion to the First Division. The joy is short-lived though, as just ten days later, the Football League decide to demote the Town two divisions, after they admit 36 breaches of League rules - 35 of which are related to illegal payments. The Swindon board immediately appeal, but High Court action is dropped due to lack of funding - and the fans protest, thousands signing a "1st not 3rd" petition. The FA Appeal Panel reduce the demotion to just one division, and Swindon are denied their first-ever taste of top flight football. Hillier and director Gary Herbert were eventually jailed, Farrar and former club secretary Dave King received suspended sentences.

He's not currently manager of the team 2nd from bottom. Why is Marco Silva also on the hit list when he failed to keep Hull up last season from a similar position?

As Robbie Savage speculated on 5Live last night, it's a chance for Mark Hughes to put one over on Stoke and send them down if he keeps Saints up.
