(Reuters) - The following are Premier League managers who did not last 100 days in the job:
* Colin Todd at Derby County: 98 days
Todd won two league titles with Derby in the 1970s as a player when he had a seven-year spell at the club but his managerial stint lasted just 14 weeks.
An assistant manager before he took over the reins in October 2002 after Jim Smith resigned, Derby lost 11 of the 17 games he was in charge of to leave them second from bottom before he was sacked.
* Nathan Jones at Southampton: 95 days
Appointed in November 2022 after Ralph Hasenhuettl was sacked, Jones failed to drag Southampton out of the relegation zone.
He won just one of his eight league games in charge and losing the rest to leave them bottom of the standings when he was sacked.
The Welshman was unpopular among the fans and may have had a shorter stint if not for the November-December World Cup break.
* Terry Connor at Wolverhampton Wanderers: 91 days
Connor took charge of Wolves in February 2012 after Mick McCarthy was sacked but they did not win a single game under the Englishman, picking up only four points and losing seven in a row at one point.
Wolves were relegated after finishing last and Connor was replaced in the summer.
* Quique Sanchez Flores at Watford: 85 days
Flores was one of three managers to lose his job at Watford in the 2019-20 season thanks to the trigger-happy owners but his second stint at Vicarage Road was one of the shortest in the league in recent years.
Having helped newly-promoted Watford secure a notable 13th-placed finish in his first stint in 2015-16, there was no repeat in 2019 as Watford won just once in 10 games while they were also thrashed 8-0 by Manchester City.
* Bob Bradley at Swansea City: 84 days
Bradley was the first American coach to take charge of a Premier League team in October 2016 but he had a tough time right from the start after fans accused the American owners of hiring him only because he was their compatriot.
He quickly found himself out of his depth at Swansea as the club picked up only eight points in 11 games and conceded 29 goals -- the most by any Premier League club during his tenure.
His replacement Paul Clement eventually guided Swansea to safety in the final month of the season.
* Frank de Boer at Crystal Palace: 77 days
De Boer's reputation preceded him when he arrived at Palace having won four Dutch Eredivisie titles on the trot with Ajax Amsterdam between 2010-2014, but the warning signs were there when he had lasted less than three months at Inter Milan.
He took charge of Palace prior to the 2017-18 season but was sacked in September after the club lost their first four league games without scoring, earning the tag of the "worst manager in the history of the Premier League" by Jose Mourinho.
The Dutchman's replacement Roy Hodgson turned things around as Palace finished 11th.
* Rene Meulensteen at Fulham: 75 days
A first team coach under Alex Ferguson at Manchester United, Meulensteen took charge of Fulham in 2013 when Martin Jol was sacked with the club flirting with relegation.
But a run of defeats in January left Fulham bottom of the table and the club sacked Meulensteen, replacing him with Felix Magath who could not keep them up in the top flight.
* Les Reed at Charlton Athletic: 41 days
The author of the book 'The Official FA Guide to Basic Team Coaching', Reed took over at Charlton in November 2006 when Iain Dowie was sacked but he managed only one win in his six-week tenure.
The club were knocked out of the League Cup by fourth-tier side Wycombe Wanderers and their poor record under Reed earned him the nickname 'Les Miserables'.
He was sacked before Christmas and his replacement Alan Pardew could not keep Charlton in the top flight.
