Boycie Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Sorry, my post was made by blind faith, and the fact that I'm happy we just beat Leeds! Ready to start a debate over Clough because we won again are we? Oh well, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I'm not debating who is better than who.. I'm just interested in the reasoning as to why one manager is better than another.. It's just the NPC is as fickle as they come, one week a manager is a genius and the next he's a donkey.. Nigel Adkins got Ssausagehorpe relegated and then Southampton promoted in 2 seperate seasons.. SOD was brilliant at Donny and was deserving of a bigger club for 3 years and then he's sacked after 8 games into the new season.. It's crazy.. Also the term 'give the manager time and you'll reap the rewards' is a bold statement.. If that was true, Crewe would surely be in the PL by now under Dario Grady instead of League 2.. It's a funny game football with the most fickle fans of any sport going.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rynny Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Opinions on managers in the NPC change every week depending on the result.. How many people here thinks Clough is a better manager than Kenny Jackett? Me, cus I'm a derby fan.

No, I'm not debating anything.. I haven't put forward any reasoning as to who is better than who and I'm not going to claim that either is better.. I just wanted to know what constitutes to being a better manager at this level.. If it's based on league position, then a managers status is going to change every week.. Hence the donkey to genius in a week comment. NCs record against Leeds is pretty decent.. 4 games 4 wins 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that there isn't a correct way to follow a team (or a wrong way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a funny game football with the most fickle fans of any sport going.. TBF, Adkins record in League 1 is excellent - 3 promotions on 3 attempts with 2 different teams. The way you say that makes it sound like he went from relegating a team to getting one promoted, when really he was doing a good job at Scunny and dropped a league to promote Southampton. Anyway minor quibble, as you were! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 On what basis? Millwall finished 8th last year and we finished 19th... Who was better last year? I'm sure it comes down to the players at the managers disposal. Last season didn't Morison score almost every other game to help them get so high up the table? This season, now he's left, they're a lot lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCs record against Leeds is pretty decent.. 4 games 4 wins 100% Sorry to keep agreeing Bris...That's been my point for the whole season. Many folks are either up or down, depending on a run of half a dozen games. When we lose they join the loyal core of anti-NC types and when we win, they move across to the "other side", comprising some hard-core Clough followers and people like me who want us to do well irrespective. The season lasts 46 games. For some, as long as the Manager's name is Clough, he'll never be able to do anything right. I think I've read that somewhere anyway.....I've no idea who I would rather have than Clough but I know I'd rather have him than some who have been put forward as "obvious replacements" and that certainly includes the chap who was on the receiving end of a 2-0 defeat at Leeds today 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamOfKansas Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Clough till I die...till he loses again. That's the typical mindset right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
