Soccer clubs go through managers more than George Steinbrenner.......
It's kinda ridiculous some of the petty, cosmetic reasons I've seen managers leave/get sacked. It wasn't Sven's fault David Beckham decided to kick a field goal into the Lisbon stands. It wasn't Sven's fault the stupid ref called a foul for something I've NEVER seen called at the international level (except Landon Donovan in the World Cup, but Americans just never get the calls in their favor...cause they're the US.).
Now, I'm not going to blame the ref or JUST Becks, but, it can't be solely the coach, which has to be the scapegoat in often an unfair situation.
Dick Advocaat, on the other hand.....is another story.
