Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Crozzer on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:03:31 I think this needs a poll, candidates are as follows:
Dave MacKay Dave MacKay Dave MacKay Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: herthab on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:05:24 Going purely on results, Ady Williams was a bit of a let down!
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Batch on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:21:06 Since I've been watching : Colin T*dd was a prize cunt. At least Wise left us with sum sort of team when he did it. I mean Kim Heiselberg - what the fuck kind of pro footballer was he.
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:23:33 Andy King
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:26:49 Can't comment on Dave MacKay (Far too young :shock: ) From what I have seen, has to be Colin Todd.
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Panda Paws on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:50:28 Jimmy Quinn P 85 .. W 19 .. L 45 .. D21
That was a pretty depressing period that sticks in my mind!!! Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Panda Paws on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:51:57 Dave Mackay's record, FWIW, was ...
P60 .. W18 .. L24 .. D18 Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Bushey Boy on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 21:56:24 Steve McMahon for being a total wanker
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Tails on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:14:49 At least McMahon took us up though, and briefly took us to the top of the first division.
If it wasn't for us being a total cripple financially we'd have gone up that season IMO. He was a cunt though. Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:18:48 it's been done. (http://www.thetownend.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=290364#290364)
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: yeo on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:30:30 Hmm since Ive been going Ive these to pick from..
Quote 1984-1989 Lou MACARI 285 138 67 80 449 340 60% 1989-1991 Ossie ARDILES 106 40 33 33 163 140 53% 1991-1993 Glenn HODDLE 120 51 32 37 202 162 56% 1993-1994 John GORMAN 72 15 20 37 90 148 35% 1994-1998 Steve MCMAHON 204 75 49 80 245 277 49% 1998-2000 Jimmy QUINN 85 19 21 45 84 141 35% 2000 Colin TODD 18 4 6 8 16 29 39% 2000-2001 Andy KING 36 12 10 14 43 43 47% 2001 Roy EVANS 26 10 6 10 30 35 50% 2001-2005 Andy KING 193 71 48 74 265 263 49% 2005-2006 Iffy ONUORA 40 10 15 15 40 56 44% May-Oct 2006 Dennis WISE 17 9 5 3 24 14 68% Nov 2006 - present Paul STURROCK 32 18 6 8 40 27 66% So according to the success % the worst is Gorman or Quinn. In all honesty I didnt go during the Premiership but Gorman never had a hope in hell so his percentage for that season shouldnt really count. Quinn,Iffy and certainly in his second spell Kingy were in impossible situations so kingys percentage prooves he was ace. So i'll plump for Todd because what he left was by and large a complete load of wank. Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: yeo on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:32:36 Who cares if its been done if we are following that rule then every fucking thread would be locked.
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:33:14 because it was me who did it before.
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: yeo on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:35:22 But I ade the effort to answer a football post seconds before you locked it. :mrgreen:
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 22:36:03 that'll teach you
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 06:15:05 Iffy Onuora no doubt
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: chalkies_shorts on Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 13:58:05 Ken Beamish - the worst STFC side ever.
Les Allen was also a prize cock. Recently, its Andy King all the way - for every Parkin there was a Whalley. For every Milner there was a Lightbourne. Tactically inept - as motivational as John Prescott and his post match interviews were as comprehensible as Russel Brand at the Brit Awards. A mangerial equivalent of Bowden. A complete waste of space. Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Frigby Daser on Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 15:51:57 Quote from: "Chris BS32" Jimmy Quinn P 85 .. W 19 .. L 45 .. D21 That was a pretty depressing period that sticks in my mind!!! I don't think any manager can really be judged on the constraints he had to work with. God, we got excited when Des Linton signed. Griemink Robinson Borrows Davies Hall Howe Collins Bullock Gooden Cowe Hay And they played in the Championship!

Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 17:45:57 I liked King.
Jimmy Quinn is the one i mpost remember being shit, and Onuora Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 18:29:29 King was hilarious - Ive heard so many funny storys about him recently
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Bushey Boy on Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 21:02:42 Was that from Super Sammy!!?!
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Crozzer on Thursday, June 7, 2007, 22:32:41 The choices were any one of the following:
Dave MacKay Dave MacKay Dave MacKay Actually, I don't think he was a manager, so it's alright to mention Kandy Ing. Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: red macca on Thursday, June 7, 2007, 22:33:26 Adi williams
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: flammableBen on Thursday, June 7, 2007, 22:47:58 Didn't Alan McDonald get to be caretaker manager for a few days before Colin Todd decided he'd take charge a bit early? He wasn't in charge for any games so that would make his win record 0 / 0, which is an indeterminate form. Could be anything really.
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: flashone on Friday, June 8, 2007, 02:45:47 We have had our fair share of inept managers as their records show.
Mackay though was something else - he really stuffed us Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: manc red on Friday, June 8, 2007, 02:53:05 I was never particularly impressed with Roy Evans, he did bring Ruddock in with him. Although i did like Paul Edwards.
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: CliffP on Friday, June 8, 2007, 03:40:15 First poster had it spot on - Dave Mackay , if only for displacing Stan Harland and totally cocking up the shape of the team
Title: Swindon's Worst Ever Manager Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Friday, June 8, 2007, 09:54:47 Quote from: "Bushey Boy" Was that from Super Sammy!!?! ermm yeah but I only just remembered them now! :oops: and I heard a few from my friend at ITV too! mostly about how Andy King was convinced he looked like Bruce Willis :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: |
