peacock1961 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 don't want him to go, but if Carlos goes could Vic do a job for us? Experience abroad and nearly as many jobs as CC. Worth a punt? and whilst you're researching if you have to, the best SWFC manager ever - official from my Grandad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincs Owl Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 We played good footy under Vic. But we lost an FAC tie 3-2 at Newport under him. Imagine the meltdown if owlstalk had existed then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torryowl Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 he wasn't popular .and I think his head coach Gordon clark ( think that's his name) was supposedly the brains of the outfit . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevan Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 My vote for best manager ever (although he didn't stay long enough) would be Harry Catterick. We were runners up to the Tottenham Hostpur double winning team of 1961 and then he left for Everton not long afterwards. We had the beginnings of a great team but then Layne, Swan, Kay scandal hit the club badly and the sixties were pretty much a downward spiral thereafter (apart from the 1966 Cup Final of course).

Whilst this was supposed to be a rebuke to the numpties talking about Klinsman, Pardew and Eddie Howe as possible replacements for CC, the fact that Vic Buckingham managed Barcelona and Ajax and according to Cruyf was the inspiration for total football ought to put him up there with the best.
