Bob Manc 100 games

[Slim]

I'm not arguing his achievements, mainly because it makes my skin crawl. All I was saying is first 100 games means very little(unless you're Hughes, in which case...good luck making 100), the fact he has been a manager at one club for what, 25? 26? years is the impressive stat here.

Has he? Really? I would never have known. After all, it is never mentioned in the media or anywhere else.

If you want to nosh him off, do it somewhere else.

or what?

Since Taggart has been in charge, how many managers have we had who've made 100 games?

How many have we had who didn't make 100 days? Dave Bassett didn't make 100 hours (thankfully).

The amusing thing is that the rags have got this to come once Taggart finally shoves off. Looking forward to them employing the next AVB

Whatever way you want to paint the picture, Mancini took over an excellent squad, and arguably failed with them in his first 6 months so has added to it. Ferguson took over an utter shambles, a bunch off pissheads, and sold them all within his first two or three years - yet had the same win ratio as Mancini in that duration.

This is such a shitty post. How did Mancini fail in his first season?

And Ferguson had nothing like same win ratio during his first 100 games. NOTHING LIKE.

I feel dirty for doing this but this Ferguson's record for his first 100 league games:
P 100 W 45 D 31 L 24

Also after the end of his thrid season when he had gone over 100 games and apparently sold all the pisshead he did what? HE FINISHED 13TH WITH RECORD OF W13 D 9 L 16. They won FA Cup that year (which saved his job) I give him that. But otherwise you are talking like rag journo revisionist (and not calling you rag to be clear).

This is the 'shitty' team that won the FA Cup in '84/'85 & finished top 4 pretty much every season before Ferguson took over. Atkinson sold Hughes & there was speculation he would lose his job to a certain Ferguson which created unrest & got Utd off to a poor start, whereafter he was replaced by pileface.

His early performance as Utd manager was pathetic & he turned an adventurous, attacking, team into one of the dullest teams in the league. My match going rag mates were referring to OT as 'the Graveyard' & all wanted him sacking.

Then he got handed a load of money, lost 5-1 to & finished below City, then they invented the Premier Leaague.

He was nowhere near as good as Mancini at the start. Not on the same planet.


And Hughes loaning out a nervous, 3rd choice, mistake ridden, keeper to Birmingham, made his career.

Hope that clears everything up.
