    I thought you needed a degree in sports science to win football matches these days?

    Alex Ferguson was awarded a pro licence without sitting it, an honorary award.

    Which actually though was fair enough given he’d done the job for about 25 years at that point, and had actually been used as a consultant to design the course content.

    Both Neil Warnock and Harry Redknapp hold pro licences. You have to have them to manage in the top divisions anyway but Redknapp would not have been permitted to manage in the Champions League without it.

    Fair enough .What I was sarcastically trying to say is that you don't have to try and re-invent the wheel to win football matches . It's about sticking it in one end and keeping it out of the other .

    Interesting comment in Joey Barton's book that the QPR players, when he was there, felt that the only way Warnock could be considered a coach would be if you removed his front teeth and put in a row of seats. Barton didn't like him much.

    And yet... Warnock has won promotion after promotion at various unfashionable clubs and the QPR players have achieved............?

    To say that Ferguson was at by far the biggest and most powerful club in England (in those days) for decades - he didn’t win much on the continent did he.
    Compare all his years spent at Manchester to the years other managers have spent managing Liverpool.
    Or even Nottingham Forest.

    There have been much better managers in England than Ferguson.

    Agree. It’s a simple game, complicated by pseudo-science to justify astronomical wages.

    I really don't think you can class Brian Clough or Bob Paisley as 'much better' managers than Ferguson. No British manager has been more successful than him. Like him or not he has been the best British manager ever.

    Your're right and they ******** their way into 1 million pound a year jobs . Just think if we hadn't stuck with Johnson he'd probably be managing Yeovil , likewise Judas ,any other club would have sacked him with the run he was on ,he'd now be managing Chesterfield or Fleetwood .
