4. Nigel Adkins
It was a long hard day on the South Coast for Saints manager Nigel Adkins. He’d just witness his side earn a great 2-2 result at Chelsea and came home to catch up on the news. This is where he found out his employer had already agreed to kick him out and put Argentine Mauricio Pochettino in his place. Adkins had won promotion in two successive seasons to take Southampton from the 3rd tier to the top, as well as keeping them outside the relegation zone, only to find out he’d lost his job to an unknown man from overseas on television. Absolutely brutal.
