Popular Post Plonk Posted October 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2020 Statistically I think most would agree our three worst managers have been Eustace, Jo’s and Burtenshaw. All three had poor records and had the club spiralling in a downward direction. So what did we do to replace them. Burtenshaw was replaced by Len Ashurt, and subsequently Big Jack, and then Wilco. Most people agree that Ashurst did some of of the groundwork for Jack,and brought in some decent players. Eustace was replaced by Big Ron, the rest is history. jos was replaced by Bruce, and we saw the green shoots of recovery, before he jumped ship. My point is that when the club finally realise Monk has joined that esteemed band, they need to be looking at recruiting an experienced guy who can turn this shitfest around. It has been done before. It can be done again. 13 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there is a long list of poor, worse, disaster. But three times in my life we got to disaster and made a good decision. The three worst in memory are the ones I class as disaster points. I think monk is currently 4th and may sink lower if he stays. Just trying to find a silver lining to the big dark cloud that currently engulfs us 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexpistol Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 We could continue a trend by having managers that fail at this club. Let’s go for the ultimate failure and appoint Jeremy Corbyn. What’s he doing now he isn’t a member of the Labour Party 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not at Hillsborough sadly.. should have stuck with big Ron. It seems to me like we’ve always been a club that relies heavily on a few players and we need a manager that gets something out of them. All of our managers who’ve thrown them under a bus have been a disaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at his Wikipedia page it seems like he lasted 2-4 years at every club so if he was that bad surely he’d have been out within a year (as has happened to Monk 3 times already in 5 jobs). Got Barnsley promoted.. guided Wednesday to 12th year 1 which was par for the course but then struggled without the big name players, looked out of his depth and should have gone earlier. Also had a reputation for playing good football. He was poor for us but will tell you what, when Monks done as a manager his CV won’t be as lengthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 For me Danny Wilson was the worst. Given REAL backing in the Premier League and wasted it, the cost of his failure we are still paying for all these years later. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshy Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Chris Turner didn't do fantastically well, I remember sitting in the pub when D A sacked him. Think we were 3rd bottom in L1. What he did do though was bring in young players such as Brunt and Whealen. He could spot a good un, but also some bad uns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
