I don't frequent the Matthew Walker group so doing myself a favour there. If the one running the group is that much of a simpleton, what hope does the group have?

Only one who used to wind me up more was the one that responded to every bit of Clem criticism with a laughing react. He got banned from the non Matthew Walker group though as he got on the admins tits too much. You wonder if some of them even support Swindon. There was one that was more of a Lee Power fan that disappeared after he left. He’s still at it |

I think Cooper is our only manager to complete back to back seasons since King...

Three managers who have managed more than 100 games for us this century - King, Wilson & Cooper.
It is a bit of a "way of the world" thing as a bunch of those managers who haven't reached that threshold jumped ship for other jobs - Wellens, Lindsey, Garner, Flitcroft, PDC (sort of), Sturrock & Wise all weren't sacked. There's a very thin band of "good enough to keep the job, but not good enough to get a better one" managers |

Only 23 were permanent managers though (in the 23 that does count Gunning who even though is technically a temporary manager he can be classed as manager for managing 18 games). Colin Todd Andy King Roy Evans Andy King Iffy Onoura Dennis Wise Paul Sturrock Maurice Malpas Danny Wilson Paolo Di Canio Kevin MacDonald Mark Cooper Martin Ling Luke William David Flitcroft Phil Brown Richie Wellens John Sheridan Ben Garner Scott Lindsey Jody Morris Michael Flynn Gav Gunning 17 were temporary with some doing more than 1 spell as temp manager. Breaking down the figures further the temporary managers have been - with games in charge figures. David Tuttle 0 Ady Williams 2 Dave Byrne 18 (2 terms) Paul Bodin 2 Fab Picarretti 1 Tommy Miller 2 Lee Power 4 Matt Taylor 1 Noel Hunt 2 Tommy Wright 2 Gav Gunning 1st time 3 (2 terms) Then in the permanent manager list there have been a few that for whatever reason didnt stay long and all left of their own volition and not the club deciding, and, all with less games that Gunning has been in charge. Martin Ling 9 Dennis Wise 17 Kevin Macdonald 14 John McGreal 0 That TBH seems a pretty standard turnaround of managers at this level I would think. Yeah the Chelsea figure does include caretakers etc as well. Thing that stood out for me when I looked was the manager who didn't actually manage a game for us and the fact that it seems to have been ages since anyone has stayed for much more than a year. Just a repeated pattern of hope followed by despair. |

I'm actually thinking of two other clarkes. There are three of them ffs. He's gotta be related to the other two. There aren't many of Clems fan club left on the facebook groups, its down to handful so to have three of them with the same last name.

That bloke is either a troll or very very stupid, as he defends the club constantly. He's deadly serious. His dad is all over everything as well. Both mouthy as fuck. |
