Trigger-happy Watford sack manager Rob Edwards - the man they vowed to 'support come hell or high water' just 10 games ago - and turn to Slaven Bilic to become their FIFTH boss in 12 months

Watford manager Rob Edwards has been sacked just 10 games into the new season.

Edwards was only installed as Hornets boss in May following the departure of Roy Hodgson, who could not prevent relegation from the Premier League last season.

Slaven Bilic is a contender to replace Edwards as is Xisco, who secured the club's promotion back into the top-flight in 2021, is one of the candidates to replace Edwards if he loses his job.
