Claudio Ranieri sacked: The six Premier League managers to have had shorter permanent tenures than ex-Fulham boss
There was another managerial casualty in the Premier League as Claudio Ranieri was sacked by Fulham on Thursday.Scott Parker succeeds the Italian and is the Cottagers’ third different manager this season, making Ranieri’s dismissal that little bit more embarrassing.Ranieri, who guided Leicester to a spectacular league title in the 2015/16 campaign, was only in charge of Fulham for 106 days – making him one of the shortest serving permanent managers in Premier League history.

Claudio Ranieris sacking as Fulham manager is crazy, says ex-Premier League boss

But there were six men who had even shorter permanent tenures and here you can see who they are.

6. Colin Todd – Derby County (98 days)

Colin Todd had a pretty successful seven years at Derby as a player but as a manager, not so much.He left his post as Swindon boss in November 2000 to become Jim Smith’s assistant, but when Smith resigned in October 2001, Todd was promoted to the top job.And after failing to improve the Rams’ form, Todd was given the heave ho as Derby went on to finish 19th that season and thus suffer relegation.6. Colin Todd spent 98 days in charge of Derby County in 2001/026
Todd had a much better playing career at Derby than a managerial one

5. Terry Connor – Wolverhampton Wanderers (91 days)

It’s clear Terry Connor prefers life as an assistant manager but the top job at Wolves was thrust upon him following Mick McCarthy’s sacking and the club’s failure to recruit anyone else in February 2012.Connor took charge with Wolves in 18th spot and failed to a win any of his 13 matches in charge of the club as Wolves were relegated with three games still to play.He left that summer and is now McCarthy’s assistant at the Republic of Ireland.Connor failed to keep Wolves up in the 2011/12 season6

He now manages Los Angeles FC in Major League Soccer.Bob Bradley opens up to talkSPORT over Swansea City spell and admits: 'I wish they never called'6

Frank de Boer (unattached) 25/1 to be the next Southampton manager6
