Unstoppable. Then it is the best job in the world. But when things go wrong, when the team starts losing and the trophies start to dry up (depending on the team of course) then it's hell. There's nowhere to hide- the once adoring fans become their biggest critics, and almost inevitably, sooner or later the manager finds himself out of work. Every now and then however a manger can be successful or popular and still find himself getting the sack for a whole multitude of reasons ranging from greedy owners to over ambitious fans.
