MARK HUDSON INTERVIEW: The former Cardiff boss opens up on the 'volatile world' of management
Daily Mail Minutes after an afternoon in the company of Mark Hudson comes to an end, a reminder pops up of why we were here in the first place. Sabri Lamouchi to be sacked at Cardiff this afternoon, reads a text message.
The Frenchman became managerial casualty number 22 in the Championship since August. Indeed, 15 of the 24 teams changed bosses at least once this season in the division and, in the top four tiers as a whole, 52 clubs coach has been in the job for less than 365 days.
When reflecting on the EFL campaign as a whole, sacking silly season might well be the overarching theme, ahead of even the Hollywood-like drama of the play-offs or how Vincent Kompany reinvented Burnley or that Plymouth romped to a century of points.
Seeing the yellow ticker on Sky Sports News telling us of a sacking felt like a daily briefing at one point. But each of those departures is more than just a statistic and every one of them has their own story, often one of sadness.
This is the story of Hudson, a bright, young coach who was one of those to lose their jobs this season. Hudson, along with Steve Morison and Lamouchi, were let go in a turbulent year for the Bluebirds in which they flirted with relegation.
