Bignot - young manager non-league in the Hurst mould, tried to change too much too quickly Slade - back to experience, but well past his best and results got worse and worse Jolley - back to young/hungry. Amazing start but ran out of ideas and steam and talked himself out of the job Holloway - experienced plus a household name. Like Jolley started quite well, but the summer proved a nightmare for him and he recruited very poorly. 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.   ~ Alfred Lord Tennyson

Holloway wins it, full of false promises and fecked off when the going got tough. When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I've gone for Slade but had Runaway stayed much longer and made some January signings I am sure he would have proven worse that Slade.

Bignot was always my go to as flipping useless but Holloway takes that crown now. Slade; well, not worth the time typing it up... 'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
