Gparrish Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Irvine pure percentage football. As long as he took it to the last day that good enough for him, yet if Palace weren't deducted ten points we'd have been gone way before then and it would have be fully deserved.

Guest minsk owl Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Statistically, the worst record belongs to Eustace with something like 11% win ratio, but i would still go with Burtenshaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Statistically, Bill Green. Played 1, lost 1. From an entertainment point of view, Alan Irvine. Coming home from work and heading back out for winters nights midweek home games in front of 15,000 was like having diarrhoea, when faced with a locked toilet door and only a rubber band to pick the lock.

Leaping Lannys Perm Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Would assume that statistically, over say more than 20 games, it is probably Jewell. Weren't we in the bottom 3 when he went. He only had one run and it was a run in which we were at the very bottom of the league. All the other managers mentioned in the thread had a run with the team where they weren't in the bottom 3 and therefore must have better overall records. Whilst most were sacked when we were in the bottom 3, they all managed a finish out of the bottom 3 aswell, Jewell never did that as he wasn't here long enough.

Owl Capone Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Not counting anyone in "temporary charge". There is only one candidate for me STEVE BURTENSHAW 2 goals and no wins after 28/12/1974.First ever visit to 3rd tier of English football There have been some shockers since 2000, but all these came at a club with a potentially terminal illness, although one or 2 did have the funds to get us out of a mess and made it worse. ALAN IRVINE takes the recent plaudits. Strange as it may seem, although LEN ASHURST left us rooted to the bottom of the 3rd division when he left in 1977, he had stopped the runaway train as it was and laid a few foundations for Jack Charlton to build on. BTW if you insist on including temps, then KEN KNIGHTON has to be the most successful manager ever. Played 1 won 1 .Chesterfield home 1-0 in 77 after Ashurst left and before Big Jack came in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
