If only we had appointed one of the other top managers that were queuing up to take us on, especially those with win ratios in the upper 80's.

When asked he said Bradford will do what they do I am not interested it's not my job , my job is to get my players to do what I want them to do. A breathe of fresh air after the Jolley tactics I am sure the players are so much happier now.                              Over 36 years living in Suffolk but always a mariner.                              68 Years following the Town                               Life member of Trust                                First game   April 1955

Sheff Utd have won 9 of their 25 games this season and are 5th in the Premier. That's a 36% win ratio. Ollie's overall record is 36.1%.

They have not managed one promotion in the last 17 years to the Prem! You can prove anything with stats. Why not also include budgets v other clubs and which division he was managaing in?

A season in the premier league with Blackpool will distort his overall loss count. When was the last time we had a manager that has managed in the top flight before ending up here?

Jim Bentley had a 28% win rate at Morecambe but many consider his achievements there to be excellent. Sheffield United mentioned above but in our league, 6th place Colchester have won 38.7% of their games this season.
