There were some who worshiped the ground he walked on. I wont name them, they know who they are and are conspicuous in there absence from this thread.
I don't think people said he was one of the best managers in the country.
Do many of them happen to be some of the most hardcore SISU haters?
Best cccfc manager since jimmy hill
Would have been worth at least 10 more points for west ham than allardyce
Most entertaining football for over a decade
First half against burnley some of the best football a Coventry team has ever played (we lost)
And hundred more where they came from.

By lost you mean drew 2-2 obviously.

No dear chap - October 2011 - we lost.
Surely when people would say that "best football a Coventry team has ever played" they were referring to his first match in charge which was against burnley. I distinctly remember people say it at the time.

I can't find a couple of the quotes, there was the famous one about if he was West Ham manager they would win the league, another one about Fergie saying he wouldn't do any better than Thorn in his position.
Here is the West Ham one - comedy gold

The gift that keeps on giving
If only you and the other enlightened among
Us had adopted a Twitter hate campaign maybe we could have been rid of SISU
Their Chair/CEO/Owner has resigned as a result of a bitter Twitter tirade from the fans
Along with his director wife.
I bet Thorn hasn't
This is a Coventry City forum. Can you please stop talking about him like we give a fuck about him. He is nothing to do with us so give it a fucking rest. Are you in love with him or something? the way you carry on about him is like when a school kid fancies another and they act vile towards them. It really is fucking boring to the extreme. I am sure if you look hard enough you could find him on twitter or something and stalk him away from this site.
ACL and the council have a pivotal role to play in CCFC's future. Andy Thorn was a bad manager we had for about a year. Being obsessed with either is kind of weird, but the Thorn obsession is just creepy.
hilarious Grendel, it's Andy Thorn who destroyed the club, right.
It's symptomatic of the problems this club faces. He was given huge credit by many supporters as they saw him as an anti hero to SISU. We see the same in the battle with the council and ACL. It is warped logic.
Kidderminster on the other hand care only about the club and almost certainly will force him out this week. They are planning a demo before the game Tuesday demanding he goes.
If we had done the same in the Championship season we would still be in the Championship and still at the Ricoh. So no it was pivotal in our demise and the apathy and utterly poor judgement of supporters is largely responsible.
That's.....quite a narrative you've come up with there.
Used to give him a clap when a cheery wave did you?
Remember, my first post said that man would destroy the club if he wasn't sacked -- I was 100% right as I am now about the current situation and most idiots on here were very, very wrong.
If it's a Coventry City forum why do most spend their time sucking up to ACL and the Council - they are not the football club are they?
No, it's the truth - a very uncomfortable truth for many who seem now very conspicuous by their absence.
Yes in combination with the cretins who backed him. Kidderminster fans clearly are far more knowledgeable than ours -- if only we had them in Block 16 in 2011.
By Cretins I take it you mean Sisu as they are ultimately the ones who backed him as they gave him the job. Surely the bulk of blame and responsibility lies at their door for hiring him? Or are Coventry fans now Ultras like in Italy where they have a big say in club affairs?
Oh I really think you need to look in the archives on here -- if he hadn't been appointed there would have been a riot. Fans can and always influence decisions on management.
Maybe SISU should have used those hardball tactics of not paying rent, not agreeing the good deal and threatening to move the club out of the Ricoh. That you agreed as it will 'benefit' the club. When they dealt with AT.....
Weak and lame response -- the sign of a defeated man who has been hit by the Tsunami of reality.
Everyone and anyone except SISU is to blame for our demise. Is that what you are saying?It's symptomatic of the problems this club faces. He was given huge credit by many supporters as they saw him as an anti hero to SISU. We see the same in the battle with the council and ACL. It is warped logic.
