We've had some pretty shit managers over the years, but theres been a few good ones too. So for this week's Cooks Question i want to know who you think is Coventry City's best ever manager. Not just taking into account league position or trophies, but the change in formation and tactics too. Let me know your pick and why you chose them. I'll read out the best answers on Thursday's edition of Sports Lounge, which kicks off at 10am on 98. Hillz FM. You can also listen via www.hillzfm.co.uk and the Tune In Radio app. If you miss the show, catch up on demand on www.mixcloud.com/liam whenever you like. Thanks for your support and enjoy the show

The majority said Pressley was the best manager during our spell at Northampton...

Jimmy Hill was the best but before our lifetime but I must say I have thoroughly enjoyed Mowbray being in charge. Hopefully he takes us up and beyond!

Jimmy Hill. And he would be even if we hadn't got promoted. Changed the club and the game.

It was a shame we never got to see what he could do in the First Division. Should have given him that 10 year contract he wanted

Don't think you can look past JH but from managers in my lifetime I'd go for Snoz. All seemed to start going downhill when he got the push.

Jimmy Hill it must be. I was too young to remember him and started going in the mid 70's during Gordon Milne era. The team of 1977-8 was , and remains, the best I've ever seen so Gordon gets my vote for managers during the time I've been going .

Jesus! I remember people saying that Pressley was the best Manager since Jimmy Hill. I'll have some of what they're having please.
Got to be Snoz in my time and a shout out to Mowbray who has somehow turned this basket case of a club around when others have failed miserably.
