can't say I'd be excited if he's appointed myself. doesn't mean I'd jump on his back
That'd be really funny though. I have a mental image of an enraged Phil Brown running up and down in front of the dugout trying to shake you off as you ride him piggy back up and down in front of the Arkells. I'd pay good money to watch that.

I too definately see Rosler as a better manager and the stats seem to back that up.

Rosler is a better man manager and gets his teams playing football rather than the long ball percentage game of Brown who is like Flitcroft in his style, which personally doesn't appeal to me as much as Rosler does.

By comparion -
Phil Brown
Bolton        6 games 66.7% wr
Derby       33 games 21.2% wr
Hull        157 games 33.1% wr
Preston     51 games 29.4% wr
Southend 251 games 39.0% wr
-----------------------------------
Overall     498 games 35.3% wr


Uwe Rosler  
Lillestrom   55 games 42.6% wr
Viking        89 games 41.6% wr
Molde          8 games 75.0% wr
Brentford  136 games 44.1% wr
Wigan         55 games 40.0% wr
Leeds          12 games 16.7% wr
Fleetwood  102 games 42.2% wr
-------------------------------------
Overall       457 games 42.5% wr

David Flitcroft
Barnsley  45 games 31.1% wr
Bury      157 games 40.8% wr
Swindon  42 games 50.0% wr
Mansfield   1 game    0.0% wr
----------------------------------
Overall   245 games 40.5% wr

I know its a fairly basic comparison but the win ratio does show a fair difference between the managers.

If Brown gets the job I will obviously give him time to get his side together how he wants with his own players but I don't feel overly confident that he will get us promoted, I am not entirely sure that anyone can get us promoted now with our injuries and suspensions but lets see.

I wasn't a fan of appointing Flitcroft when he joined and in the main he did an ok job, I feel Brown will be the same, if we go up then I am not sure Brown has enough about him to take us to the next level, Rosler on the other hand does IMO.

As for taylor, he may he may not but I would like him to be given a few games to try and prove his worth but Power has said he will appoint a new manager in the coming week.

Yes, and if you take out his management period at Molde (just 8 games) in which interestingly I think he kept them up and his time at Leeds (12 games) which I can't really count because they've changed their manager so much. Take them away and his win rate is pretty consistent from 40% - 44.1% in his managerial career to date. I'd have had him when he was at Brentford and I would have him at Town now.

Rosler is definitely a better calibre of manager.

I don't see it.... Flitters came into essentially a broken club, no pre-season, no infrastructure, a few players.... late.  Not ideal, in my opinion Rosler would not have been able, at such short notice, given the circumstances to have stabilised us.

When he got Brentford they were bankrolled by Benham... apparent moneyball man, he's reckoned to have put 90 mill into the Bees.

He's now got Dean Smith... not a name but has done  a decent job, added value to the squad and just outside the PO's.

Smith is a sort of Flitters type, even had Purkiss at Walsall. Power can only dream of being as successful as Benham... his club collecting includes Midtjylland in Denmark who managed to win a leg v Manure in the UEFA Cup a couple of years ago.

Akin to stepping in a pile of dog poo, then yes he may well have.

Wonder if Russell Slade has expressed an interest?

Let's not be too harsh on Phil Brown. He was manager when this happened.



He also played against us in the mammoth league cup tie with Bolton in 1989/90
