However ... the Football Association investigation into allegations of match-fixing amid the recent Norwich City-Derby County fixture at Carrow Road have come to nothing.
Two Sunday newspapers reported that investigations into both clubs have drawn a blank, and the Sunday Telegraph's initial story last weekend was well wide of the mark.
But Roeder was back under pressure as Norwich crashed to Bristol City in their Championship match at the weekend. They have won only two of their 11 fixtures and hang one place above the relegation spot.
To add to Roeder's worries, former Toon star Antoine Sibierski was injured in the first half of Saturday's fixture, with rumour he could be out for some time.
The next manager for the sack?
Could be worth a fiver.
