I'm struggling to think of one. Chris Hughton. I know it went wrong for him at Forest but he succeeded in pretty much every other job he's had. Moore being a nice bloke matters insofar as it can potentially help keep players and fans offside. Much as I think the squad has a mentality/ego problem, we saw what happened when Jos came in and tried to crack the whip. Someone needs to strike the balance with the players in terms of demanding consistency of performance without putting too many people offside, Carlos and Bruce were the only ones who seemed to come close.

You make some good points, but ultimately I think more wins and less crappy results is the best way to keep fans on side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 9 black managers have been employed in the top tier since the Premier League was founded in 1992, out of 240 managers. There are only five other black managers in the top 92 clubs in England’s professional leagues. If black managers aren't being given the same opportunities as their white counterparts, especially at top clubs, then it's hardly surprising we've had no black managers winning the Premier League as yet, is it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 As for Big D Moore: Nice bloke...but there is a difference between people liking you as a bloke and really respecting you as a football manager. We still have remnants from dressing rooms that have downed tools for other managers, some who were purported to be nice blokes too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
