Forgetting Joe Mercer and Roberto Mancini...........

[ColinBellsjockstrap]

Who was our best manager over the past sixty years?

By best I mean who did the best with the players he had to work with at the time, for example, Roberto Mancini did very well obviously, but he did have a squad of multi millionaire superstars at his disposal which helps....

Whereas managers such as Tony Book, Billy M'cNeill, Brian Horton etc, probably had a tougher job, as many of the players were fairly average....

Pound for pound and where we were heading it has to be Sir Joe Royle

Goater 250k
Morrison 45k

trimming the squad of 50 first team players into a decent squad mixed with youth (weaver brown whitleys horlock) with good honest pros in Morrision Jobson Bishop Goater who dragged us out of div 2 saving us from the abyss and then to a great promotion season in div 1

Peter Reid'd 5th place finish with the squad he had.

We played some decent stuff under Brian Horton with Beagrie, Walsh and Uwe. For some reason though we couldn't win away from home iof I remember rightly, some scintillating footie at home though.

What? Tony Book had one of the best (arguably 'the' best) squads that we've ever had at the club!
