No. 10 in worst manager list!

[Danny-Boy]

Where's Alan Mullery's disastrous time as Palace manager around 1982-3? Thank God our prayers were answered shortly afterwards and we got Steve Coppell fresh from his enforced retirement as a player.

BHA what about George Curtis in the 60s.

McLaren for England is worse than Graham Taylor i'd say.

John Toshack's first reign at Wales was pretty shit and i'm not too impressed by his current one

 

[Austrian Gull]

Graham Taylor - England
John Barnes - Celtic

John Barnes at Tranmere?

Mark Hateley - Hull
Tony Adams - Portsmouth
Bryan Robson - Sheff Utd
Chris Waddle - Burnley

Micky Adams last season would certainly make my top 10. Took a reasonable team and turned it into a bunch of, no doubt expensive, clueless mercenaries hell bent on relegation.

Souness at Newcastle-yes he inherited an ageing side,but his purchases were just
shocking-generally I reckon Souness has been a poor manager overrall.

Clough at Brighton was far from auspicious,let alone Leeds

 

[Ned]

Carlton Palmer at Stockport

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I think you forget just how bad Brighton were under Hinsh.

2-0 down in the opening 10 mins to Grimsby, Walsall and Gillingham.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Bizarre list, Dowie, Santini and Souness wer hardly that bad, the first two weren't given any time, and Souness was left with an ageing team that was falling apart.

Santini walked

Carlton Palmer at Stockport

Spot on, also the Palace dream team of Attilio Lombardo and Thomas Brolin always made me laugh.

 

[NMH]

OK, let's throw it open, cos I reckon NSC could do better than the compilers of that list.

Who are your WORST managers - any club, any country, any era?

Go...

Ramos for Spurs wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

Apparently he wasn't learning the language, and his idea of motivation during the game was to fold his arms and walk to the line making a grimacing expression and staring.

Sounds like Capello to me

 

[coventrygull]

Peter Reid 8 months at Coventry. Came in after the club sacked Eric Black because they wanted a big name to take them to the premiership. Won 10 games out of the 31
