The club really should consult Jim Brown before they consider firing a manager.

Might have prevented the Black/Nilsson sackings, mind.

Hope so. It was there when my daughter finished Year 3 on July 23rd and she's going back on Tuesday to start Year 4.

If it's not there I'm going to be a little bit annoyed to say the least.

What I find interesting is the fact that we only have a couple of people in the list with a positive goal difference, and both of those were short(ish) term appointments in Nilsson and Black.

Overall we are -145 on GD with the managers listed. Average goals /score per game is 1.1 v 1.4.

I refuse to even acknowledge these stats. Thorn was a hero and his passing game was a joy to behold

This started off as what appeared to be an interesting article until I realised at the bottom of the page that I learnt nothing from what was written down.

On a side note I wish people would stop banging on about attendances. The attendance is shit because the results are shit. Sort that out and more people will come. I speak to people who don't go about games and one of the first things they'll say is what was the attendance. My usual response is well I was there so what more can I do about it. Stop worrying about how many people are not at a game and concentrate on supporting your team because right now we're failing.

Sort things out on the pitch and people will come back but even then I don't care if there's 25,000, 5000 or 500 people I'll still be supporting the team first.

anyone who can produce a winning team will = bums on seats,
just a shame that certain regimes have blithely ignored the obvious

The stats man nothing personally to me.
They would only interest me if each manager was presented with the same set of circumstances.

For example personally I think Chris Coleman's is the worst record as he was supported in the main during that period.

51.6% is points gained percentage, Nilsson had a slightly lower win % than Black

But I agree we need to move on, can't help think though what might have been
