Its too much of a risk, taking someone with no managerial experience.

But then you look at Steve Clarke, the West Brom manager. Last year he was Dalglish's assistant at Liverpool and of course joined West Brom in the Summer and they had a pretty good season.

Do you realise that our last manager was Poyet? Short memory?!

McLaren seemed to always have a poor away record, that wreaked of poor motivational skills but evidently was a good tactition.

Similar things could be said about Gus and the inconsistent energy in the team on the pitch but there is also the lack of plan B and adaption on the fly when team's either park the bus or press us high up the pitch, however that seemed to fade once Leo turned up, but pre Leo the rest seemed to depend on the mood of Macca or Barnesy depending who was in the middle up front.

Dinosaur he can get to ****


Really? Dinosaur? He may not be young but United haven't stayed at the top without having a manager and coach that embarace new things and move with the times. Fancy sharing your enlightened view as to why he's a dinosaur?

Yes, but we was at the arse end of League One, not one of the top sides in the English Second Tier.

Doesn't matter what level we're at - it's just an odd thing to say when we've just had one of our most successful managers who had no prior experience before joining us.

Experience can be very VERY overrated as well - I don't hear people calling for Peter Reid, Terry Venables, Steve McClaren, Bryan Robson or many more to be appointed.
