is sacked by nottingham forest Ange Postecoglou After only 40 days and five Premier League Match in charge after a 3–0 home defeat to Chelsea.

Here, the PA news agency takes a look at other owners who have failed to survive in the Premier League era.
Reeds (Charlton)
40 days and seven games
Taking charge of a struggling club after eight defeats in his first 12 league games, Reid failed to improve matters. He scored only four points in seven games, a League Cup exit against Wycombe and was sacked on Christmas Eve.
René Meulensteen (Fulham)
75 days and 13 games
The former Manchester United coach replaced Martin Jol, but also failed to see out the season as they slipped to the bottom of the table after losing nine of their games, and the Cottagers appointed Felix Magath as their third manager of the campaign, eventually finishing 19th.
Frank de Boer (Crystal Palace)
77 days and four games
The former Netherlands star had a lucrative appointment at Selhurst Park and was allowed to bring in Jairo Riedewald as well as Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Timothy Fosu-Mensah on loan for £8 million, but he was sacked after just four league games – scoring no points or goals – and a League Cup win over second-tier Ipswich.
Bob Bradley (Swansea)
84 days and 11 games
The first American to manage in the Premier League, Bradley only lasted from October to December 2016 – although unlike Reid, he at least made it through Christmas before being ousted on 27 December. He took eight points from 11 games and left Swansea 19th in the table, having also struggled under Francesco Guidolin, but finally got their man as Paul Clement secured top-flight survival.
Quique Sanchez Flores (Watford)
85 days and 10 games
Watford’s managerial merry-go-round under the Pozo family ownership stands out among Premier League clubs and Sánchez Flores has taken two rides, serving for 44 games between June 2015 and May 2016, but only a dozen – with two wins – on his return three years later.
Nathan Jones (Southampton)
94 days and eight games
The Welshman left Luton in November 2022 to replace Ralph Hasenhuttl, but for the second time since his poor 10 months at Stoke in 2019, it proved to be an unsuccessful spell away from Kenilworth Road. Five wins and nine defeats from his 14 games in charge left the Saints looking for a third boss replacement of the season.
