Following on from the worst ever player thread, it would be interesting to see how this one goes.. I will start by nominating Lawrie McMenemy. There was so much expectation when he arrived, but it soon became clear that he was a disaster..
May as well stop there, Macca wins it hands down. I was chuffed to bits when we got him and he turned out to be a massive disappointment.
In my experience Howard Wilkinson terrible appointment. Matt Piper done a Q&A on his time at safc and hung him out to dry as the has been fraud he was
Agree that Howard Wilkinson is a top contender. However, unlike McMenemy I knew he would be ****e beforehand.
For me this thread could have started and finished with the first post! Wilko doesn't come close to what that other git did to my club!!
Just thinking about him. He wasn`t great like. Took over from Terry Butcher iirc. Come to think of it he wasn`t great either.
No contest - the "silver lining" I suppose was we didn`t drop many points the season the overpaid wa**er took us down.
I looked on Wiki and if you judge 'worst manager ' on win % not including caretaker managers who done **** eg Quinn 6th McMenemy 30% 5th Alan Brown 28.8% 4rd Alan Durban 28.5% 3nd PDC 23.1% 2nd Advocaat 21.1% 1st Wilkinson 14.8%
Wilkinson. Remember we lost 3-1 to Charlton at home, 3 own goals I think..'Well I'm glad we got that monkey off our back'. The 3 own goal monkey? ****ing ****ehawk.
