sorry but stats can be made to show anything you like.. in certain circumstances lets judge the 2 on like for like! SOD was in a division that Cotts is now in and there is certainly no 50% win rate
probably better to not go down this road because stats need to backed up and quite frankly and being totally unbiased when I say it at the moment the 3 or 4 supporting issues put SOD WAY IN FRONT!

You can now make up your own minds, a complete club history, I know who I prefer... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_O'Driscoll#Statistics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Cotterill#Career_statistics
Why has this turned into SoD v Cotts? Find me an example where anyone has said that they'd prefer SoD? Everyone knows Cotts is better than SoD for us you don't need stats for that ffs.
I am merely showing what's history & printed, I leave the judgements up to the individual, the truth is all there for those not to blind to see it.
*** ### Wiz has printed a table , ( not getting at you wiz or anyone else ) and it is very good stats for SOD and Cotts, as stats are what has happened and to some degree can be a guide to Future events, although it is what happens on the day, Never beat team A and always lose by 2 goals . if we did that on the day "the stats were right" not really just coincidence .. ***FILLING THE BOARD WITH STATS no! predeterming a final goal(/ aim) by endeavouring to second guess a string of events by using various strings/algorythom's is not stats. ###2 TABLES OF STATS YOU FIRST NEED TO ESTABLISH THE LEVEL PLAYING FIELD . and include all aspects .. SOD has been u19 manager/coach for 7 games and won 6 of the 7 games! When comparing "stats" you have to fair! Could go through all the comparisons but wont.. but 1 ish each SOD took over Donny in div ONE when 18th ended season 11th, took them into championship finished 14th 12th 21st and left after 7 games for 1 point going to FLOREST where he helped Cotts and then as manager took them to 8th and got sacked, Florest been sh*** since. Time at City I agree was a disaster took over when 23rd in Champs didn't save us left us 22nd in First. COTTS CANT REALLY COUNT THE S*** going on at Pompey but Burnley .. took over and first season finished 13th championship, then 17th then 15th then left after in 15th having played 14 games for 18pts took over Florest in 23rd with 8 pts from 11 and took them to 19th on 50 pts SOD WAS HIS HELPER! but he Cotts was sacked and Sod took over ! time at City A WORK IN PROGRESS . NO denying last season brilliant, but he needs to show something soon... it wasn't intended buts that's the beauty of our board .. open debates and good discussions ..
How would you prefer to be described at your job? Very, very good. or, Competent.?? and if I'm honest I'm struggling with competent for him..
