Media and Soccer Managers?

[carnaross]

How many times in the recent has the media instigated managers losing their jobs? A couple of bad results and suddenly, the manger is said to be under pressure. Never any mention of a player on a bad run being sacked - he's just dropped, pending a return to form (or injury or loss of form/suspension) for another player. Managers are treated very poorly by the press, if you ask me. Anybody think similarly?

Jaysus lads give me a few €million a year to utter banalities and name 11 players every Saturday and the Press can treat me any way they like as long as they dont stop me going to the bank.
