Bourne End Red Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 On Big League weekend 2 - I could listen to GJ talk about football all day long.The bloke always conducts himself well and always has a well balanced view on things - the players must love playing for him.I honestly believe he is the best manager we will ever have and would be devastated if he were to ever leave us.Well done GJ youre doing an unbelieveable job - keep it up.

Guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 He's certainly building a good media career for himself aswell. Rarely does a week go by without him being on national TV somewhere.Good for us in the sense of getting more media coverage, but then again it also raises his profile too and shows what a great manager he is.

Mr Mosquito Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 The crown of best manager city has ever had is waiting for coronation in the prem,till then A.dicks still wears it.But GJ is doing good Ahem cider head, Alan Dicks was the best manager in 'our lifetimes' not THE best ever City manager......Harry Thickett was this club's greatest ever manager taking us to a second place finish in ye olde top flight 1906/07 season. He also took us to our one and only FA Cup final against ManU in 1909. Harry Thickett wore his trade mark black bowler hat while coaching our players. Although he was a South Yorkshireman, and a former international at Sheffield United, he was a real West Country celebrity for his ability to inspire the likes of some of BCFC's greatest players including Billy Wedlock and Joe Cottle. Harry Thickett wasn't interested in too much fancy football, instead he was more interested in winning with City once winning 14 games on the trot under his management. We won this very division we're in now under his stewardship in the 1905/06 season. Sadly, Harry Thickett went into obscurity after being sacked by us during the 1910/11 season and took over a pub in Trowbridge. As Landlord his liking for a drink made his weight go up to 25 stone and by the age of 47 he was dead. After Harry Thickett's departure we didn't experience the joy of top flight football again until 65 years had passed and Alan Dicks had got us promotion back to the top flight in 1976.All hail Harry Thickett - Bristol City FC's greatest ever manager !!!!!!!
