Sacked managers

[edit]

Some managers are sacked. Wilmots from Belgium recently was given the boot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:1812:40A:C200:1539:1878:4265:B490 (talk) 17:07, 15 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal: a page for all confederations

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
To merge the regional article to one list page, List of current national association football team managers; short text, context, ease of management. Klbrain (talk) 19:33, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I propose centralizing the information into a single page, perhaps entitled List of current national football team managers, with sections for each confederation. Such a page would be easier to maintain and keep uniform, and could also include some general stuff such as the role of a national team manager.

Pages affected:

While the entries amount to over 200 in total, they themselves aren't accompanied by much other information. In fact even the current versions can be edited down: indicating both the dates of appointment and the length of tenures is redundant and a bit undue (and the default ordering by date of appointment is even more undue – those are lists of managers, not lists of managers by date of appointment). --Theurgist (talk) 18:04, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be a good idea, since updating would be easier. Leon bcn (talk) 11:49, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't unreasonable, but the combined title is problematic because of the different meanings of football around the world. Given that the sport's main page is Association football, that suggests that the internationally-appropriate title would be List of current national association football team managers.

Thank you for doing the merging, I updated the information and added some stuff. On second thought there is an advantage with the arrangement by date of appointment, at least from an editorial perspective: it prompts you to update not only the manager's name but also the date in question and the source, which now had often been 'forgotten' in some of the original lists. But still I went for the alphabetical order, especially as the exact dates are sometimes ambiguous: quite a few of the publications out there say that the manager "will" or "is set to" take over, or that he has been in charge for so-and-so much time. --Theurgist (talk) 22:50, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Managers with dual nationalities

[edit]

@Ortizesp: You seem to have left only one flag for managers who had two.

While players have a single official FIFA nationality (determining what national team they are eligible for), this is not the case with managers: they are what they are. Granted, ancestry or citizenship sometimes does not by itself characterize someone as "coming" from a country, but if someone does indeed have strong enough ties with two countries, then why not indicate both, but favour one and drop the other? --Theurgist (talk) 10:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's just convention at NFOOTY. There's starting to be players and managers with three+ nationalities, and I don't think it makes sense to have so many flags. Also, many of these managers were players and have a definite "sporting nationality", so it's easier to just do that IMO.@Theurgist: Ortizesp (talk) 23:13, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
