Top Three City Managers

Oh i knew that would be controversial,but i honestly believe we achieved those promotions despite the manager.

 

We didn't with Little or Molby.

 

Neither managed during the Adam Pearson regime...

Edit: Or did they ? I can't remember now... Freaking memory

 

They both did didn't they?

 

Brian Little spent £1m in a Summer and didn't win promotion and Molby spent a huge amount on wages and didn't win promotion.

Peter Taylor attracted better quality players and helped us with media relations. He also didn't spend half as much as Molby and Little to get us out of the bottom league.

 

Ha ha check my edit on the post above

 

Peter Taylor also spawned 2 cracking pub quiz questions, can't get much better than that...


Who was the only Third Division player to win full England caps?

and

Which England Manager gave David Beckham the captaincy?

 

But he did benefit from,signings made by those managers.

 

Phil Brown

Peter Taylor

We haven't another top manager in my life time.

 

And who was Englands shortest reigning manager

 

Do caretaker managers count? Surely not.

 

Steve Bruce not in your list?

 

Interesting that nobody has yet mentioned Nick Barmby, given especially how upset so many people on here were when he was sacked.

For me:-

Bruce
Brown
Fred Stringer

Nah, really, third place Terry Neill.

 

1. Bruce
2 to 100 - Not applicable.

 

It's my game and i make the rules

 

I'll take that as a no.

The REAL shortest serving England manager is currently a tie between Keegan, McClaren and Hodgson.

 

Where's OLM anyway ?

 

He never managed us, he just thinks he does!
