I think there is a good portion of fans who would have McClaren back - the second sacking (as you mentioned) was a joke. He took a team from the bottom six into the top six and then got sacked for dipping out of it. I'm sure Mel would reverse that call again if he could. He's an excellent coach but bringing him back for a third time in less than 10 years would bring an unsavory media attention. I personally wouldn't mind it. As I said on the call he wasn't ever backed like other managers and the kbe player he really wanted as wasn't allowed to bring in was Watkins. Would like to have seen what would have been like with another full season the second time around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 3 minutes ago, Gee SCREAMER !! said: Bit of elaboration. He said winning the title with PSV was like being manager of Celtic or Rangers any manager could do it and win something. He then said he had a 20% win rate at Fenerbache which was a similar two team league. He's not that far wrong to be fair. Beating Ajax and Feynoord to the title is absolutely no small feat, especially when you factor that he lost his best players year-on-year and had 3 titles in 5 years with more than £100m profit in player sales. It's not an easy job at all. PSV haven't done it since he left that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good to me. Make it so. Yorrick. Yorrick was hit by a proton torpedo, Cap'n. Was he hit amidships. Pretty much so, Cap'n, right in the galley. Alas, Yorrick, I knew him well. What about the guy at Brentford. He is a Clingon. No room for hangers on in the Enterprise. To the Premiership and beyond. Warp speed 3 or Mach 3 if the engines are down. Make it so.
