A Horse With No Name Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I see that The Sack Race .com have conducted a survey into the GOAT. The Greatest Of All Time Championship Manager taking into account win rates and promotions etc. The winner was our very own Steve Coppell, who must have sneaked it over second placed Shaun Dyche, again a City legend, due to his huge success at Ashton Gate.

I always think there should be a handicap factored in to allow for what a manager has to work with. It`s easy for Rafa Benitez with the assets at his disposal but not so much for. say, Mick McCarthy, who was constantly underfunded and having to sell to buy.

Depends on other factors like club financiers and money available. You could have a very young inexperienced manager but if with a cub with plenty of cash could make this manager go up the ranks very quickly. Or on the other hand say a manager coming down from the Prem that has all the experience and the goods but with a club on limited funds its a different story. any way you cant go pass Warnock or even our own LJ..

No, Steve Bruce has more promotions from the championship as manager - four vs Warnock’s three ... both not good enough for City though, according to the wise ones on here ...

Not a bad little midfielder but a tad small. Spoilt for choice the players that have moved along the M4, Allison, Hewlett, Emanuel, Peacock, Pritchard, Roberts, with Flint & Taylor moving to city and Pritchard resigning and no doubt a few I've forgotten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Bassett’s either the only one, or is certainly a member of a very select few managers, to win every league title into the Football League. Sure he had other promotions (play-offs, runners-up) on his CV, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from a blip at Watford he had a fantastic managerial career and I bet not many knew he's now age 75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
