In the aftermath of their 3-0 home defeat at Oakwell by Birmingham this afternoon, Barnsley have sacked manager David Flitcroft.
The former journeyman midfielder took over from Keith Hill in mid January and although he managed to keep the Tykes in the Championship last season, as I mentioned on Friday Barnsley have been noticeably worse this season.
To make matters worse, Yeovil won convincingly at Watford - a result that means Barnsley are bottom of the table. In four of the last five seasons, the club at the bottom at the end of November has been relegated.
On Sunday Sheffield Wednesday decided to join in when they sacked Dave Jones. The former Cardiff boss was appointed in March 2012 and was in charge when Wednesday were promoted two seasons ago, but apart from a bright start at the beginning of last season they’ve not featured in the top half of the table in the season and a half since they joined the Championship.
