    yes he did but that was (in my opinion) because he said openly he wanted to try and improve the playing style of the team and move away from the SKD route 1 style (that we are still using to this day)

  • I'd say that we were far from "certain relegation" despite the Sammy Lee era; we still had a cohesiveness within the squad and the results under Lee were not reflective of our abilities. It was an ach

  • Can I be first to say.   I'd take him. He knows the league, plays attractive football and in my opinion is just as good as Pardew.   Shite lazy journalism though.

who did a better job, megson or coyle?

 

 

megson didn't relegate us

 

but thats because Gartside sacked him before he that season was out

 

had Coyle been sacked at Christmas, it would have been neck and neck

 

1st season, they both kept us up having come in when we were struggling

2nd season, both guided us to comfortable mid table finishes

3rd season... one definitely did relegate us the other might have, but we'll never know

 

though is that because the job coyle had done was regarded as better because he's a jolly smiley chap

 

I think it's a poorly worded question

 

I wouldn't one to say either was better than the other, as ultimately have been shite

So why are you defending megson to the hilt if he's shocking? Megson spent more than any Bwfc manager probably will in our life time, took us absolutely no where leaving the club up Shit street and suffering as a club still today.

 

i aint defending anyone

 

im just stoking a fire

 

:D

Its easy to find out who was/is the better of the two.

 

Games played-W.L.D.

 

Whats there win%.

 

Goals for and against.

Meggo....

 

games..98

 

won... 27

 

drawn...26

 

lost.. 46

 

win ration 27.55%

 

 

coyle....

 

games.....120

 

won...... 40

 

drawn... 23

 

lost... 57

 

win ratio...33.33%

I think it'd be fairer to compare on a points-per-game comparison.

 

Megson = 1.09

Coyle = 1.19

 

(Neither is good enough btw)

Fuck me, i thought Megson would have the better record tbh.

 

Megson must of been shiter than i thought.

 

Neither is good though.

 

Get it sorted Coyle.

Megson drew 36.11% of the games he didn't win.

 

Coyle only drew 28.75%.

I think it'd be fairer to compare on a points-per-game comparison.

 

Megson = 1.09

Coyle = 1.19

 

(Neither is good enough btw)

 

Id say its more fairer to do it this way...

 

Megson= Survived 2

 

Relegated 0

 

Coyle= Survived 1

 

Relegated 1

Just out of interest what was big sams ratio?

Relegated 1

 

And if megson has managed as many games as Coyle then it'd read :

 

Megson: Survived 2, Relegated 1

 

Coyle: N/A

Edited by DazBobParr

now how many games did the fans lose by putting pressure on the players and manager for being shit?

Just out of interest what was big sams ratio?

 

Games..371

 

Won.. 153

Drawn.. 104

Lost.. 114

 

win ratio....41.24

And if megson has managed as many games as Coyle then it'd read :

 

Megson: Survived 2, Relegated 1

 

Coyle: N/A

 

thats theory not fact

Games..371

 

Won.. 153

Drawn.. 104

Lost.. 114

 

win ratio....41.24

 

excluding championship games?

thats theory not fact

 

It's my opinion.

 

Besides, facts aren't welcome.

excluding championship games?

 

no mate...

 

my source says record is from 1999-2007

Allardyce was in charge for 226 PL games

 

Won: 80

Drew: 66

Lost: 80

 

1.35pts per game

a quick summary at this point

 

Megson is a cunt, he is responsible for our current position and deserves minimal credit for sorting out Little Sams decision to rotate the entire squad in 4 weeks and in anycase anyone could have kept that squad up because it was a really good one and didn`t need a Manager.

 

He was sacked at Sheff Wednesday because he`s a cunt, they may have been 3rd in the league but this was in spite of him, not because of him and the decision to sack him was justified by their promotion which they probably wouldn`t have got if he stayed put because it needed a good Manager to get them up, not just anyone and he was a cunt.

 

Owen Coyle is a clueless cunt. He has carried on the poor work on Megson, signed a load of shithouses and is tactically inept. Anyone could do better than him and anyone (including half the `members` of this website) could have kept us up last year. We went down entirely because of his decision to Injure several senior players pick a shit team and he should be sacked as he is solely responsible for the current predicament we are in

 

Is that where we`re at? I`ll jog on then

Edited by derek smalls

If that's your interpretation then you probably should

he's a cunt and he's a nice bloke should not come into any debate over whether coyle is a fcuking suitable manager

 

being better or worse than megson is not the question

 

the only question is whether the clueless fecker is doing a good job

 

on what i can see, he's not

 

and, on what i can see, he shows no signs of doing one

Nice use of the phrase 'in spite of him', drawn out to have a go at someone when the facts don't really back up your theory.

Megson is a cunt, he is responsible for our current position

 

Owen Coyle is a clueless cunt. <snip> he is solely responsible for the current predicament we are in

 

So, Megson is responsible for our position and Coyle is responsible for our predicament, and these aren't one and the same?

What was sammy lees ratio?
