    Surely Thorn is destined to go down in history as the worst City manager ever

    I'm not trying to have a go, I'm actually pointing out that it's very sad and that I can't see anyone ever doing any worse statistically. Not trying to score points just saying it's a shame and that his record will never ever be beaten.

    Surely Thorn is destined to go down in history as the worst City manager ever

    That's what I am saying. A bloke can be guilty of a crime but be found innocent and that is a statistical fact. Statistically AT will never be bettered (or worsened) as the worst ever City manager. When people look back through history that is all they seem to remember. When you look at who won...

    Surely Thorn is destined to go down in history as the worst City manager ever

    Me too, but surely no City manager in the future will ever be allowed to achieve a win percentage so low again.

    Surely Thorn is destined to go down in history as the worst City manager ever

    and that, that stat is going to remain in place forever. Sad but true I feel. 60 games 13 wins 20 draws 27 loses Win percentage 21.67%

    Thorn's replacement and the way forward...

    Good post, Paxman. The more I think about it the more I believe it to be the right decision. Only 3 games in but it seemed clear that nothing had been learned from last season and we were still throwing leads away. I predicted a 14th place finish. That was with AT in charge and that was because...

    New season expectations now AT is gone

    The way we played on Saturday in the first half will do us just fine.

    Will we try and nick an Established League one boss?

    Ddidn't say I wanted him here, just that he was at the game on Tuesday and was on the radio chatting to Linnell and Eakin

    Chris Hussey

    Wasn't it agreed that the Chris Hussey account was fake? Or was that just the Twitter one?

    Will we try and nick an Established League one boss?

    Kevin Blackwell was at the game here on Tuesday and said he was dying to get back into management.

    I have a horrible feeling............

    Bound sure to be Carsley and Richard Shaw isn't it? Honeymoon period will kick in, the results will pick up and then they will be given until the end of the season.

    How was Thorn at fault today?

    In spite of everything though and without all of the constraints he has been under, his stewardship has been riddled with lots of silly schoolboy error decision making. It's not about just the 3 games and that is quite obvious.

    New season expectations now AT is gone

    And anyway, I predicted we would finish 14th under Thorn and he's now gone and we are indeed 14th. :D

    New season expectations now AT is gone

    Predicted 14th. With Thorn gone I think we can be top 8 and even higher for sure. Shame for him, but unfortunately he just wasn't up to the job and I would be very surprised if he ever gets another managerial job and I don't think if he does that he will ever be a success. Hope we keep him on...
