There was another managerial casualty in the Premier League as Claudio Ranieri was sacked by Fulham on Thursday.Scott Parker succeeds the Italian and is the Cottagers’ third different manager this season, making Ranieri’s dismissal that little bit more embarrassing.
106 – Claudio Ranieri lasted just 106 days in charge of Fulham – only six managers in Premier League history have had shorter permanent tenures at a single club. Finito. pic.twitter.com/Av8HfTPobV— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) February 28, 2019Ranieri, who guided Leicester to a spectacular league title in the 2015/16 campaign, was only in charge of Fulham for 106 days – making him one of the shortest serving permanent managers in Premier League history.
Claudio Ranieris sacking as Fulham manager is crazy, says ex-Premier League boss
But there were six men who had even shorter permanent tenures and here you can see who they are.6. Colin Todd – Derby County (98 days)
Colin Todd had a pretty successful seven years at Derby as a player but as a manager, not so much.He left his post as Swindon boss in November 2000 to become Jim Smith’s assistant, but when Smith resigned in October 2001, Todd was promoted to the top job.And after failing to improve the Rams’ form, Todd was given the heave ho as Derby went on to finish 19th that season and thus suffer relegation.
65. Terry Connor – Wolverhampton Wanderers (91 days)
It’s clear Terry Connor prefers life as an assistant manager but the top job at Wolves was thrust upon him following Mick McCarthy’s sacking and the club’s failure to recruit anyone else in February 2012.Connor took charge with Wolves in 18th spot and failed to a win any of his 13 matches in charge of the club as Wolves were relegated with three games still to play.He left that summer and is now McCarthy’s assistant at the Republic of Ireland.
64. Bob Bradley – Swansea City (85 days)
Bob Bradley was Swansea’s second manager of three in a pretty turbulent 2016/17 campaign for them.The American enjoyed success in charge of his homeland and Egypt but no such luck in south Wales.Bradley was sacked after just 11 games in charge, conceding 29 goals in the process. He now manages Los Angeles FC in Major League Soccer.
63. Frank de Boer – Crystal Palace (77 days)
Frank de Boer, however, was sacked after just five games in charge of Crystal Palace in September 2017.The Dutchman lost his opening four Premier League games, leaving the Eagles bottom of the league.Roy Hodgson was brought in to firefight the mess and kept Palace up and he’s still the manager now.
62. Rene Meulensteen – Fulham (75 days)
Ranieri is not even the shortest serving permanent Fulham manager in Premier League history – that prize goes to Rene Meulensteen, who was sacked in February 2014.Meulensteen served as a coach under Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United between 2007-13 but has struggled to make it on his own.He is currently the assistant manager with the Australian national team.
61. Les Reed – Charlton Athletic (40 days)
But the ‘winner’ of the shortest serving manager in the Premier League prize goes to Les Reed at Charlton.Reed managed just one victory at the helm, earning him nicknames from the press including ‘Les Miserables’ and ‘Santa Clueless’. He was subsequently replaced by Alan Pardew in December 2006.Reed is currently the Football Association’s technical director, a position he officially started last month.
