Despite how terrible Burnley and Sheffield United have been so far this season, what’s keeping those two managers in their jobs? At least Luton have managed to adjust to the premier league and are now getting results after a poor start

    Burnley are playing long game with Kompany. Will get relegated, build squad further, and look to come back up the year after even stronger.

    Low expectations. If the expectation is that they’ll be relegated and not win many games then you have to judge what a successful season is another way. It helps that the other promoted teams are similarly poor and the other Prem teams haven’t performed so poorly as to provide much hope. Things might change if Luton continue to win games but right now people are just knee jerking after their 2nd win, which if it wasn’t for Everton’s 10 point deduction, would still leave them in relegation.

    Half expected to go down and they’re amazing in the championship. They know they’ll go straight back up.

    If the season is doomed, no point in preparing a payout for the current manager and a new contract for the next manager.

    Besides, these guys got them promoted last time they were in the Championship.

    Maybe you believe the club and the manager will do better the next time around?

    Finally, because neither spent anything upgrading the squad, one year in the Prem and two years of parachutes is probably all pure gravy to the bottom line.
