Each premier league and EFL manager was dismissed during the 2024/25 season

Managers who come and go are part of football life, and with the merry -go -round by beating fully, the number of canoe changes during the 2024/25 season increased until the end of the campaign.
The bosses of the Premier League like Russell Martin and Sean Dyche were unable to avoid the dreaded ax, while the championship saw Wayne Rooney given its walking orders after lamentable campaigns of the canoe.
The shots were also widespread in the rest of the EFL, while the clubs rushed to avoid failure by bringing drastic changes.
We have the full list of layoffs here, with nearly 50 managers leaving their posts during the season.

Ryan Lowe (Preston North End)
Left: August 12
The Preston North End Championship side separated with head coach Ryan Lowe after a single championship match this season.
After Lilywhites’ 2-0 defeat against Sheffield United, Lowe asked to leave the club, saying to the Preston board of directors that he wanted “a change”. The defeat against the Blades was the sixth of Preston on the rebound, with the Lowe team having lost their last five games of the previous season – a series of forms which saw them disappear from the dam race.
2
Neil Crichley (Blackpool)
Sacked: August 21
Blackpool dismissed the manager Neil Crichley after starting his 2024/25 League 1 campaign with consecutive defeats against Crawley Town and Stockport County.
The 45 -year -old man had previously guided Blackpool to the championship through the playoffs in 2021 and returned to Bloomfield Road in May 2023 after spells with Aston Villa and QPR. However, he could not resume the magic of two years ago, the Seasiders finishing the 2023/24 campaign in the eighth.
3
Paul Simpson (Carlisle United)
Sacked: August 31
Paul Simpson was released by Carlisle United after a 2-1 defeat against Rovers Tranmere in August. The defeat was their third of the four championship matches this season, after being relegated to the League two under the mandate of Simpson last year.
“Everyone at the club would like to thank Paul and his staff for his efforts,” said Carlisle in a statement.
4
Steven Schumacher (Stoke City)
Sacked: September 16
Stoke City dismissed Steven Schumacher after the Potters lost three of their first five campaign games. The final straw came by a 1-0 defeat against Oxford United at the Kassam stadium.
Schumacher’s mandate as Stoke Boss only lasted nine months in total, the 40 -year -old who left Plymouth Argyle to take the job in December 2023.
Two days after Schumacher’s dismissal, Stoke named Norwich City Narcis Pelach coach as a new manager on a three -year contract.
5
Erol Bulut (Cardiff City)
Sacked: September 22
Cardiff City was at the bottom of the championship when they dismissed head coach Erol Bulut in mid-September.
The Bluebirds had resumed only one point on six games and scored a goal – their worst start to a season in 94 years. The last Bulut match was a 2-0 home loss against Leeds United. It has since been replaced by Omer Riza, who remains in the acting in Omer Riza before December.
6
Mark Robinson (Burton Albion)
Delivered: October 23
Mark Robinson was relieved of his duties in Burton Albion following a series of seven successive defeats in all competitions.
“We believe that we have reached a point where a change is necessary to improve the results of the team,” said sports director Bendik Hareide at the time.
Robinson, 58, is the third manager of Burton in three seasons to have received the ax before Christmas, according to the traces of Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Dino Maamria.
7
Mark Kennedy (city of Swindon)
Sacked: October 25
Swindon Town dismissed head coach Mark Kennedy after less than five months of responsibility after a 2-1 defeat in Salford. Kennedy won only 3 of his 15 games in charge of the Robins, who finished 22nd in League two when he left.
A few hours after Kennedy’s dismissal, Swindon appointed former Bristol Rovers, QPR and Blackpool manager, Ian Holloway, as a new head coach.
8
Erik Ten Hag (Manchester United)
Sacked: October 28
By far, the most prominent dismissal of the season, Erik Ten Hag was released by Manchester United after a disastrous start to the season. The last Dutch match was a 2-1 defeat against West Ham United, who left the Red Devils 14th in the Premier League with only three victories of their first nine games.
Although he guided United with two trophies during his two and a half years fate in Old Trafford, Ten Hag was nicknamed the club’s worst manager. Ruben Amorim has since been replaced.
9
Paul Hurst (city of Shrewsbury)
Delivered: November 3
The city of Shrewsbury separated from head coach Paul Hurst after a victory of only 1 victory in 12 games in all competitions, which left them second from Bottom in the One. The deputy boss Chris Fign was also released.
Hurst and Four were in their second fate at the club, after leading the Shrews to the final of the Ligue 1 qualifiers in 2018.
“Everyone at the football club is extremely disappointed that their second spell did not work and we find ourselves in our current position,” said Shrewsbury in a statement.
10
Mark Robins (Coventry City)
Sacked: November 7
Coventry City dismissed the boss Mark Robins after a series of 4 wins in 14 championship games this season. Robins, 54, had been in charge of the Sky Blues for 2,803 days, making him the oldest manager in the English football league at the time.
The former midfielder of Chelsea and England Frank Lampard was appointed successor to Robins on a two and a half year agreement, replacing the interim boss Rhys Carr.
