Shows you how fickle it is... In the championship, Blackwell left leeds and Davies left Preston, cant sack Boothroyd. Who was the other one?
It amounts to the same thing, not many walk away without being told it would be best. If the board was that bothered theyd try to keep him, like Swansea did with Jackett.
RE: Jackett asked to leave - not fired yes but I imagine he would have been if he declined their request
Not the case though in Championship Watford still have Boothroyd in charge. Palace (Dowie) and Preston (Davies) - the managers left to take other posts but not sacked Only L**ds that sacked their manager.
