Two weeks until the start of the season so I'm opening up the most anticipated contest in all of sports, the  TRP Sack RaceTHE RULES Pick the Premier League manager you think is going to lose their job first. ALSO for an extra chance at a prize tell me how many managers in total are going to be sacked from the Premier League this season. A 'sacking' for the purposes of this contest include a resignation, a parting by mutual consent, 'stepping down' etc. Leaving a job to take the inevitable Saudi money does not count. Roy Hodgson finally crumbling into dust on the touchline due to the ravages of time does not count. These are the managers you can choose from: Arsenal - Mikel Arteta Aston Villa - Unai Emery Bournemouth - Andoni Iraola Brentford - Thomas Frank Brighton - Roberto de Zerbi Burnley - Vincent Kompany Chelsea -Mauricio Pochettino Crystal Palace - Roy Hodgson Everton - Sean Dyche Fulham - Marco Silva Liverpool - Jürgen Klopp Luton Town - Rob Edwards Man City - Pep Guardiola Man United - Erik ten Hag Newcastle - Eddie Howe Nottingham Forest - Steve Cooper Sheffield United - Paul Heckingbottom Tottenham - Ange Postecoglou West Ham - David Moyes Wolves - Julen Lopetegui A powerful line-up this season and I can't see any dead certs for first sacking. Just typing it out made me remember Luton loving Town are in the prem this season lmao If you correctly select the first manager to get sacked (or you correctly guess the total number of sackings at the end of the season) you will either win this gangtag:  Or one of the other TRP ones if you've already got one. Or a new av if you think gangtags are fail. Last season we had a league record 14 sackings, which was either a ridiculous statistical outlier or a chilling portent of things to come. You decide. the sex ghost fucked around with this message at 09:25 on Jul 28, 2023 |

Think it will be a toss up between spurs and chelsea making the stupidest possible decision but I think Spurs will poo poo themselves when they don't immediately race up the league and will sack Big Ange before the end of September. There will be 9 total sackings this season

anyway i picked steve cooper last year and i’ll pick him again, and i reckon the fear of saudi poaching will reduce the number of sackings to 6

There will be 9 total sackings this season Spurs are going to start very badly and concede poo poo loads of goals but... I'm going to go with Bournemouth sacking Iraola sharpish. 13 sackings I reckon when you account for clubs sacking multiple managers

Everton will continue their rich history of making GBS threads the bed and Sean Dyche won’t be able to… worm his way out of losing his job. Did you see what I did there? He will be the first of 12 (twelve) sackings this season.

Brentford will have a rough start and Frank (Thomas ver. not Fat ver.) will go because people running PL clubs are insane and Brentford's lot have masqueraded as level-headed for too long. 11 total.
