Polly said "Wewere trying to think if there had ever been an assistant manager, or a coach, at a top-flight club, who had been given the manager's job when the incumbent resigned or was sacked, and had gone on to make a long-term success of it. "
It needs to be someone out of work yes. Otherwise we'd have to pay compensation. That isn't going to happen.
I can see your point of view, but as I said before, the cost of getting another manager out of their contract, especially ones further down the pyramid, is a five figure sum at best. It doesn't break the bank.
Garry Monk did ok at Swansea and probably shouldn't have been sacked, it's been downhill for them since.
Brown completely lost the plot when the team lost the initial adrenalin rush and teams worked us out. Up to the day he left he was full of plans that he hadn't had a chance to put in place after patently having more than enough time to sort the trouble we had got into. He did great but then had no more ideas. Time to go when he did. People tend to just remember the good times not the cack handed tactical awareness when the pressure built. The Man City finger wagging was all down to his bizarre team selection and its obvious ripping to shreads.
I would. I think he will have learned a lot. If he came back I would like to think you would still have the same loveable character minus some of the arrogance. Hopefully his time in the lower leagues have taught him a bit of humility. Even if not it would still be a right ****ing laugh.
