Chelsea feature quite heavily in a list of the most ruthless mid-season Premier League sackings.
The Watford managerial model was almost entirely established on the sort of shaky foundations that a revolving door policy encourages. It culminated in their last two Premier League seasons being guided by three managers each, of whom only Roy Hodgson was not sacked. And he was allowed to remain until the bitter end on the sole basis that he was skulking back into retirement come season’s end and the Pozzos are anarchists but not animals.
Allardyce had taken over at Ewood Park two years before, spending precious little but guiding them away from relegation in his first half-season, finishing 10th and then being given the boot in 13th. That rigor mortis jolt of a victory left Manchester City sixth, eight points off second with a game in hand, having lost just twice in 17 Premier League games. “I’m sorry for Mark but when we start this job, this situation is possible,” said a cold-blooded Mancini at his unveiling press conference.March 4, 2012: Chelsea sack Andre Villas-Boas and place assistant manager Roberto Di Matteo in temporary charge until the end of the season as first-team coach.May 5, 2012: Chelsea win the FA Cup.
Adkins had marched Saints up to the Premier League from League One and then clear of the bottom three little over midway through their first season back in the top flight. His name was chanted by supporters at 2-0 down during his last game, which Southampton managed to claw back to a 2-2 draw against Chelsea.
