P49 and his anagrams

I have noticed that Pirate49 likes an anagram here and there (especially about our new manager) but I read this post on OTIB the other day and found it quite amusing and strangely true, maybe even prophetic I hope.

Unashamedly stolen! my apologies to the original poster.


"Our most successful manager harolD thICKett had the word Dick in his name. Our second most successful, Alan DICKs was blessed with the plural of DICK in his name. Our fourth most successful frederICK forD was also blessed. No other manager of Bristol City in the 117 years of our existence has had the word DICK in their name except these three who each achieved promotions and in Thickett's case an FA Cup Final and League Championship runners-up spot.
Ladies and Gentlemen, DereK mCInnes has the word DICK in his name, indeed like A.V. Dicks he has the plural. It is a sign that the new messiah has arrived.

Obviously virtually every Bristol City manager has been called a Dick in his time, but only the blessed actually contain those prophetic letters that spell out that glorious name in the name they were actually christened with.

Probably City's fifth greatest manager was patrICK beasley in the 1950s, just imagine how much more successful he would've been had the vicar been brahms and lidzt when he'd christened him and given him the name Padrick instead.

If you think this isn't a sign, think of our least successful managers. There isn't one D or I or C or K in Benny Lennartsons name for instance, or Russell Osman"

 

derek mciness isn't a dick, how rude!

 

tinnion has an i
coppel has an c
wigley has an i


also "117 years of your existance" 1982 - 2011 is not 117 years

 

Why do Scots make such good managers do you think?

 

CJS if you look at your list its a shame we are missing a 'u' we got t, n and c.

 

all 4 rovers managers you quoted wiz, they all got 1 thing in common.... last time they managed a team vs city, they won

Fair play CJS you are a tool if you thought no one would come back with that!

 

Whoever your manager is they`ll always be a dick as far as i`m concerned.

 

even ollie?

 

yep

 

course i knew 'someone' would come back with that! it was obvious to me that shiny would do it. i doubt other city fans would be sad enough to copy my material

 

stupid question really as if he would ever manage you lot.

if he did the unthinkable then i would still like him. but if both sides had to face each other and he says something to wind us up then he would be a dick. but he aint that stupid to ruin his relationship with us gasheads.
