That Twitter thread fails to mention he got them to the L2 playoffs twice and the top half of L1.

If he's cheap, we'll have him  


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

Quoted from TheRonRaffertyFanClub
Always got the impression that Phil Brown was more interested in Phil Brown than the club he managed. A lot of smoke and mirrors in his time at Hull. Spent massive money the club did not have on mediocre players who cost a fortune to get rid of when they were relegated. If he was as good as people say he would have been like Warnock and picked up again by a Championshp club somewhere a few years ago.


I remember hull playing arsenal away and winning a deserved win at that and their was other big scalps aswell, he had them playing really well first half of that season tbf. He was picked up by Preston a downward spiralling Preston who got relegated but probs not his fault .... do I want him not sure

Not convinced, could well be a manager on the way down. Think I prefer the idea of a young manager who has a track record of success in non league and is on the way up...

Thats success for ye 😂😂😂😂

In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Anyone 'with a track record of success in non league and on the way up' would surely be managing in the EFL would they not?

Can anyone actually name such a candidate? A young, qualified, hungry manager who has managed his way to conference promotion but is somehow still managing........in the conference (or conference north)?!

No. Because they don't exist and it's just an easy, received idea.
Everyone is a gamble.

To get from league 2 to league 1, you have to win something.  

Not that i am advocating him. Just don't like the look of Phil Brown myself.
