Ship Passing in Night Dog***t XI

I'll see your Frank Clark as manager, and raise you one Steve Coppell.

I'll see your Frank Clark as manager, and raise you one Steve Coppell.

And I'll see your Steve Coppell and raise you a Phil "fucking" Neal.

I felt a bit sorry for Phil Neal. He only took the job when Coppell did one and dropped him in the shit. The club was on a hiding to nothing at the time and he did his best under tough circumstances, much like Asa Hartford.

The initial bounce we had under Clark at the end of 96/97 was impressive but what he was trying to achieve in 97/98 is anyone's guess. The most abysmal few months of my City-supporting life. Shite players all playing out of position while a second-rate Mike Bassett just looked on bewildered.

Stuart Pearce

Gary Megson utter utter shite

[Dubciteh]

I still reckon Savic was as bad as some of those :P

Harsh on Grant i thought he did a job at the time.

[Blackadder]

I find myself having to nominate Barry Silkman. very disappointing after all the hype from himself and Malcolm Allison.

[Tokyo Blue]

Whoever said Stuart Lee, yes. And Paul Sugrue. Maybe Tony Cunningham as well, although he did well at West Brom if memory serves.

Some of the jocks brought down by Billy McNeill were perhaps legends in their homeland, but Gordon Dalziel, Dominic Sullivan and Duncan Davidson were not quite up to standard.

[Michael Brookes]

Vuoso for being invisible

Mikhail bischoff (sp?) for being a 6 toe'd bung

Mcninimum for being atrocious (bar his worldy debut)

ade mike?

Future of the club mate,play the kids etc etc etc

[branny]

Steve Daley.

Big Mal offered £400k. Swales paid £1.4 mill.

Bryan Robson had just left WBA for less.

Without double checking, did Daley not come in 1979 with Robson going to rags in 1981? Could be very wrong.

No, you're bang on. It's the article i read that's talking bollox. Daley had long gone when Robson left WBA for £1.5 mill.

Does show what a complete waste of fuckin money Daley was though. At that time Robson was probably still a good player who would have probably cost a third of what Daley did. Look his his career panned out as well. Swales at his very worst. The money spent then on Daley, Reeves and Francis set us back at least a decade, if not longer

Talking of managers there's one or two others to be added, but don't want to speak ill of the dead.

[RodneyRodney]

Can I nominate Stuart Lee for the bench?

No, he should be the starting no. 9

Gary Megson utter utter shite

Disagree. Not great, but did a decent enough job in several potions
