To keep with the real estate development metaphor I was using above:

Hughes managed the old property as it transitioned from a low grade strip mall into a respectable commercial property. He moved out some of the old tenets who hadn't paid rent in awhile, did some repairs to the building to bring it up to scratch, and brought in some higher class tenets who raised the prestige of the building. Then when the investor (Sheikh Mansour) was ready to redevelop the land into a true class A commercial property (which required something more than a run of the mill property manager), hughes got bitter and turned back into his raggy self.

I think Bob and Manuel are obviously leagues above hughes. Both in their ability and in their contribution to the development/history of MCFC. But as Slim said above, Sheikh Mansour is in a league above everyone else and nothing is possible without him.

Thought Socrates comment was bob on. Gives credit to Pellegrini where due and also to Mancini.

If you cant give credit to Pelles, then there is no hope.

What is this - the annual Carlfeedthegoat sycophant convention?

Carl and Socs have history, and I can buy their bickering and name calling. But who the fuck are the rest of you ganging up on Socrates with personal abuse?

I think Bobby was a better fit to take over from Hughes than Manuel would have been.

Sorry we have eyes. Don't need Carl to point out what a prick he is. Last time scroats was on here he was calling pellers a clown. Where has he been since then? Certainly not on here being happy at our performances

Good on you for being able to be a total fucking cunt all on your own then.

Disagreeing with Socrates is not something I hold against you, but that ladyboy comment is poor form.

Really don't get your point at all.

I have no idea of any baggage being carried but the guy gave a view to say Mancini has some real strengths and weaknesses and that Pellegrini deserves a lot of credit but it's also early days.

It's the cool thing to do. As much as Soccs gets on my tits when he stirs it up and claims the world gangs up on him. Some of the abuse he cops is both our of order and borderline racist.

Maybe read my posts I've hardly slagged him off. Just making the point why others might have. Isn't just the clown thing. Him talking down to people and if you disagree with him, calls you sheep.

Nobody is saying he isn't an arsehole at times, but it's the bandwagon jumping, racist showing off that's a tad questionable.
