when making a statement like 11pts short of ........ it is sweeping statement of the end result reality could have been different ! had we beaten the 5th and 6th INSTEAD OF 2 DRAWS AND 2 LOSSES ! we would have had 72 points they would have had 71 & 69 Norwich would not have got top 6!
Surely the key is the phrase “based on their PPG record”. It’s not a list based on which managers have necessary done the best job, otherwise the likes of TC wouldn’t be left out of it altogether.
I was just joshing that Wiz had the bare faced cheek to include the name that may not be spoken in polite company
It’s all subjective. Some of those points per game were from different leagues. It’s the same as comparing final league positions - Cotts would win hands down, but it doesn’t tell the full story. If it was in the order of height stature, LJ wouldn’t feature.
If they never interfered with Cotts transfer plans I believe we would have not gone through the LJ and Holden years. He may not have done anything since but that team to me was good enough to have pushed on with Maguire and Grey added. Plus if Fredericks never had that argument. We may of at that time done a Ipswich. With that summer of mistakes led to Cotts throwing his toys out the bag, bit like Nige’s spats. If only they learnt from that we may have been better.
LJ would be above Holden & Tinman for sure, as he achieved higher finishes at a higher level, whether people on here like it or not.
LJ He bottom of Sunderland's list. " " " Hibernian's ". " " " Fleetwood's ". Soon to become bottom of Cheltenham's list
Laugh it up, he’s still the only manager since his dad to get us anywhere near the Championship play offs again. Look at how Hibs have done since he left,.,,,Sunderland sack managers for fun, as do Fleetwood - that was a huge error by Lj, it smacked of desperation to get back into management.
We agree Junior's just a bad judge, period. Of a player, tactics, the opposition........he's just a spoilt useless ******. Desperation will be the Cheltenham job.
It’s simple maths. There’s no need to debate. Who has presided over the most games at the highest level? Alan Dicks of course. Gary J and Lee J will also be up there. It’s simple FACT. Liking someone or hating them doesn’t change the FACT. Neither does how much money was spent during their tenure.
