Championship manager crisis in barely believable timeline of chaos

Championship manager crisis in barely believable timeline of chaos

Mark Robins is expected to soon be at least the 12th longest-serving manager in

the Championship and he has only been at Stoke City since New Year’s Day

In a statistic that would once have seemed absurd. Mark Robins,

unveiled at Stoke City on New Year’s Day, is now the 14th-longest serving manager in

the Championship and pretty sure to quickly rise to 12th or 11th over the next couple of weeks.

The turbulence gripping English football’s second tier has made managerial stability almost entirely mythical. Following Middlesbrough’s decision to part ways with Michael Carrick and Bristol City losing Liam Manning to Norwich, the average boss has now been in their driving seat for barely longer than a rental car agreement.
