51% win percentage the best cov manager ever (1 Viewer)

Probably,but he gave me more excitement than I felt since 97. Gutted

51% but in League 1, so I don't think he usurps Hill or Sillett.

Yes he has done well to overtake Strachan as the most hated manager

Coleman after Watford/Charlton (take your pick) trumps even Strachan after Grimsby!

Yep. Let's hate him before he has even had chance to give his side of the story.

I despair with some of you lot I really do.

The story of how he ditched us mid-season purely for financial greed after announcing his loyalty to us?

I'm sure it will be a gripping read

And you know that how?


Do you have tomorrow's lottery numbers too?

Has he ditched us mid-season? Yes. Did he announce his loyalty to us? Yes.

Where is the guess work in that?

Its the Sky Blues in his blood thing that makes it worse than usual (assuming he has left)

But what happened behind the scenes, Guicey?


You know that do you? With a degree of certainty? You know he has been backed 100% and that any promises he was given have been kept?

If you know all that you must be on the board of CCFC.

We are all privileged for you to grace us with your presence Miss Marple. There is no loyalty in football, fact. He was fine last week when he told us he was going nowhere, to think he has seriously left due to not being backed etc. is just naivety

What's with the Miss Marple bollocks?

I am saying NONE of us know. You are simply guessing. We are all guessing. NONE of us know.

I am not making any deductions. You on the other hand ....

All I know is he's pissing off. So f*ck him.

These things happen in football, no loyalty to club/manager or player, wouldn't attach blame to Robins or the club if he goes.

Just got to deal with it and move on.

Otis I admire the valour in your arguments and technically you are correct; none of use know... however we have all been around a long time, football is hardly littered with shining examples of loyalty,, players kissing badges and then clearing off when the next big pay cheque hits their inbox. Chairman giving votes of confidence only to be seen dining out with the next candidate....and managers pledging to have club colours running through their veins only to ship out when the wind of fortune blows them off course.... agreed we should wait before sending MR to the proverbial gallows... but you are in danger of defending the indefensible?

I never hated Coleman. As a manager he might have made a lot of mistakes, but as a person I've not got anything against him. Same goes for Thorn, Boothroyd, Dowie, Adams, Reid, Black, McCalister, or Nielson.

None of them ever betrayed us like this.

Coleman betrayed us by being too shit for anybody else to want.

Because they weren't good enough to betray us and no-one else wanted them.

Can't blame him for that. Coleman is a decent guy.
