Neville's 'idea' for "a rule change... to moderate sackings of managers mid season in their first year at a club" - whenever it was proposed - is laughable
How would that work? Force clubs to retain unwanted managers? (think Steve Eyre in 2011/12 at Dale) or impose penalties? That'd simply deter clubs from taking a risk on unproven new managers
And if a manager were appointed mid-season but sacked at the end?
As things stand, managers under contract get compensation anyway, so it's not as if proving their incompetence or ineffectiveness at a particular club allows the club to consider their dismissal out of hand. No manager goes into a club unaware of potential consequences. It's pretty well-paid and they always seem to be able to find alternative employment within the game

Agree . . . laughable, and not limited to this one suggestion of his.
Something to do with his genes and where he grew up I suspect.

What is the failed Valencia manager looking for in a League Two manager?
Surprised Mr Neville doesnt fancy the job himself after his illustrious start to a managerial career, he must be suitably qualified and after all got a belting track record at it...
