The sacking season has started in Yorkshire with Mark Hughes dismissed as Bradford City manager on Wednesday and Xisco Munoz under severe threat at Sheffield Wednesday.
Paul Heckingbottom's future at Sheffield United has also been questioned. Doncaster Rovers manager Grant McCann has pointed to his experiences this season to highlight how wrong he thinks that is. Hughes was sacked on Wednesday night after 20 months at Valley Parade. Consecutive defeats had seen them drop to 20th in League Two. Meanwhile, the Owls have made the worst start in Championship history and on Saturday the man Munoz replaced, Darren Moore, brings Huddersfield Town to Hillsborough.
Heckingbottom feels safer, his board seemingly realistic about the hand they dealt him in the transfer market, but first wins of the season for Luton Town and Burnley have not helped. Three weeks ago McCann was in the bullet seat, winless Doncaster bottom of the Football League. Three victories from four have totally changed the feel. 'Football is a very fickle industry,' he said. 'If you don't win football games people ask you why and they start calling for your job.
