How on earth am I on the fence? :thinking about::thinking about: I haven't suggested any manager at all because I have no idea what sort of budget has been set for the position by the board. If I knew what budget had been set aside then I would suggest managers, but if we can only do it on...

Maybe the scoop here was that we were actually training.

Totally agree. Destroyed the dressing room and the football was just passing in triangles without any penetration at all. Just look what Black did when he came in and let loose all the players McAllister deemed not good enough. McAllister's reign was truly dreadful.

Still has a better win ratio than any other manager we have had for a while Team Nat From To Record G W D L Win % Leeds United 1 June 2004 20 September 2006 - 114 44 37 33 38.60 Luton Town 27 March 2007 16 January 2008 - 47 16 10 21 34.04...

No, no, no, no no and.... NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was awful for us. Truly dreadful. Please let's not go there again.

He lives in Kettering so is close logistically.

Well I agree with that. Sillett and Curtis though were fantastic for us so I simply won't rule anyone out.

How do you come to that conclusion? I am just saying it is wrong to dismiss anyone when we have no idea how they would do. Funny isn't it that when we buy a player and people on criticise the signing posters are all over them like a rash and saying how can you judge before he has even kicked...

Two wine gums and a bag of spanners?

I heard the betting is very close, but at the moment it is Gareth Southgate by a nose.

No-one is saying we should try an inexperienced manager are they?

With you there about Megson as manager in terms of football. If you thought Boothroyd's football was dire then just wait for the Megson brand.

Different era though.

But as I said on another post, hadn't Coleman, Reid, Adams, Boothroyd,Atkinson, Reid have track records elsewhere?

No-one is saying that are they? Never heard anyone say Black was our best manager. Better than Jimmy Hill? :o Milne? Sillett/Curtis? :o The whole thread has been hijacked .... as per usual, but it was to be expected. The history books will state that Andy Thorn was the worst manager ever...

Where did you hear this?

Thought he came across well today. Could all be bullshit of course but he certainly came across okay.

Statistically!

I'm not saying he is. Still wrong to totally dismiss him out of hand though when we have no idea whether he would do well or not. And it's not as if the manager's we've brought in previously who had experience and have had success elsewhere have been any good for us either is it .... Dowie...

I would like to see an experienced manager too, but it is simply wrong just to dismiss Richard Shaw out of hand. He could be a great manager, who knows. Where would the likes of your attitude got us when it was suggested Sillett and Curtis as managers all those years back? :thinking about:
