Bristol City board had a thread where they ranked the managers in the Championship from 1-24, so I think it'll be interesting to see how people rate Grayson in a similar thread on here. Did 1-10 because it's a bit tedious doing all the mid-table and unproven managers. My top 10: 1. Nigel Adkins - Southampton 2. Sam Allardyce - West Ham 3. Steve McClaren - Nottm Forest 4. Ian Holloway - Blackpool 5. Simon Grayson - Leeds 6. Gus Poyet - Brighton 7. Kenny Jackett - Millwall 8. Sven Goran Eriksson - Leicester 9. Brian McDermott - Reading 10. Malky Mackay - Cardiff The worst manager award goes to: 24. Nigel Clough.
And the special occasion prize of ugliest manager goes to: Nigel Clough! Sam Allardyce was a close second.
Yep ...of course failed everywhere except a lucky season with Lazio....... took the Blackburn job till he realised it was up north...... and he failed to even get you in the playoffs he will be sacked by Xmas if you are not in the top 5 .......
i think alot of respect has to go down to Malky for his time at watford. Had no money and brought in some great youth players for watford and made them into a decent championship side. Cardiff have got a good manager on board.
1. Not Grayson 2. Not Grayson 3. Not Grayson 4. Not Grayson 5. Not Grayson 6. Not Grayson 7. Not Grayson 8. Not Grayson 9. Not Grayson 10. Not Grayson 17. Grayson - If he signs some decent players I'll lift him to 14th. But I dnt rate managers that sign Bessone, Collins, Paynter etc 24. Kenny Jacket - Miserable ****
