LOMAS FEELING THE PRESSURE AT MILLWALL

STEVE Lomas has had no dream start to life as Millwall manager with 2 points from their first 6 games.

Millwall Boss Lomas

The Lions are rock bottom of the Championship after a humiliating 5-1 home defeat by Derby at The Den on Saturday. Lomas along with Bolton's Dougie Freedman are both joint favourites for the chop at 4/1.

After only being in the job for 3 months Lomas has admitted that he is under pressure and at full time on Saturday most of the fans were calling for his head.

"Some of the chats heading my way are understandable. Its just in my time- they have had a long drawn out misery for the last six seven months.

You are always worried about your job, when your not winning football matches it goes without saying that your under pressure."

The former West Ham captain was giving his post-match interview after his side were torn apart by the rampant Rams.

Millwall have slumped to the bottom of the pile in Championship and remain without a win this term. The odds on the next Millwall manager have began with Neil Harris the favourite for the job should the position become available.

The Lions are looking into 3 tough fixtures with Blackpool on Tuesday, a South London derby  with Charlton next Saturday before Leeds visit the Den the week after.

You feel these next 3 games will make or Break Lomas' reign as the Millwall boss.

Another under fire Championship boss is Bolton manager Dougie Freedman his side have now lost 3 in a row following defeat to Leeds this weekend.

EVERTON SACK SAM ALLARDYCE

EVERTON have sacked Sam Allardyce, with Marco Silva set to replace him at Goodison Park.  Allardyce leaves Goodison after just 7 months in charge. Everton finished the season in 8th position in the Premier League table with 49 points, 12 fewer than they achieved last season. Allardyce met with the club's majority shareholder Farhead Moshiri this morning (Wednesday) where he was told that his services were no longer required. This is believed to be have been a decision that come from an Everton board meeting on Tuesday afternoon. It is believed that Allardyce will receive the vast majority of of the final 12 months of his contract which Sky Sports estimate is around £6m. A statement on the clubs website read: "On behalf of the chairman, board of directors and Mr Moshiri, I'd like to thank Sam for the job he has done at Everton over the last seven months. Sam was brought in at a challenging time last season to provide us with stability and we are grateful to h...

Sacking Chris Hughton - Is it the right decision?

Another season has come to an end. This is the period where you will see managers come and go and players come in and depart clubs. The 2018/19 has now come to and end and Brighton finished in 17th place. I believe that if you had offered that to them most Brighton fans would have accepted a third successive season of Premier League football. Add onto that, The Seagulls also made the semi-finals of the FA Cup. Chris Hughton has paid the price for Brighton's poor form in 2019. This decision however, seems extremely harsh. Here is his overall record in charge of the club. Games: 215 Wins: 88 Draws: 57 Defeats: 70 That works out to a win percentage of around 40% that is not bad for a team that's budget is pennies compared to some in the Premier League. Brighton staying in the top flight is an achievement in its self and something that should not be looked over.  Hughton took over at Brighton back in 2014 when the club was struggling at the bottom of t...

Southampton needed a Shane Long header 11 minutes from time to rescue a point against Steve McClaren's men at St James' Park last Sunday and the Southampton boss saw plenty of areas for Improvement. 'I wasn't impressed because I was not happy about the first half. Already in the Vitesse match we had too many mistakes the same in the first half at Newcastle." "All the dangers of Newcastle came from faults. The second half the reaction of the players and the physical state in the last 15 minutes was very good because we had the best chances to win the game" "Starting the season with a draw away against Newcastle isn't a bad result bur normally, if we play our level we win the game. " Sou...
