Wanted to make sure the first post in here was a positive one.  What a fupping great man he is, taken us from Division 2 obscurity and looking like dead certs for the drop into the league Oxf*rd struggle in, to promotion candidates in just 4 turbulent yet overall glorious years.  Keep up the good work that man.

Vote to make him feel appreciated!  Or to render your dissatisfaction (what more do you want - would you rather have Mel Machin?!).

On a side note, anyone seen his feet?  Tiny or what!!!

I think i would worry about him tactically in a higher division. For the foreseeable future, i see no reason to axe him though.

I beleive that generally he has done a good job.  Considering the position and financial status of the club he has turned us into the very realistic promotion hopefuls predomenantly as a result of some very good buys.

I do believe however that tactically he is not the best and is prone to making some quite odd decisions.  I am not sure also if sometimes he is able to truly communicate with the players to get accross his ideas.

So generally i think he has done a good job but, as always, there is still room for improvement!

well, he has done a better job than Evans or Todd did. Evans gave up, Todd was useless. King has stayed got a decrnt sqaud, but i think he will go when we get into a higher division.

He's not a legend but he's not that bad.  He's alright at this level but couldn't do a job any higher, lower league manager is our Mr King.

Had to go for so-so as well.  Remember saying he would have to go if we lost that game against Mansfield.  We didn't, and I think he's done pretty well since then.

He's so much of a legend he puts King Arthur and Robin Hood to shame. Even if they mearged into some sort of super-legend

Pretty good.  If Arsene Wenger said he wanted to come to Swindon i would want King out, but he is the best we're going to get.  So i'm happy.

Wenger can't motivate players as shown by Arsenal's recent run of just one win in ten games. With a squad such as Arsenal's that's pathetic. If Wenger wants to come I say keep King and tell Wenger to fuck off, If Mourinho wants to come then maybe we can sort something out.

I can't even make my mind up about him anymore. I don't want him to leave but I wouldn't be suicidal if he did, that's about as much as I can say really...

He's worked wonders in terms of getting us a very good first choice 15/16. But his tactical misgivingd are cringe-inducing to say the least

I have to agree with that. If the first team is playing ok then he's but as soon as its not going well he is unable to change things.

Most managers in this division are average at every area that their job concerns. What makes King so infuriating is that he is brilliant at some parts and spectacularly awful at others. If he could sort out his weaknesses he wouldn't be managing at this level.

I see no one voted king bloody crap. Then agian, Stanley and J1mmy are the only ones that really hated him that much.
