. . . . . . . . . . . .

Having read those, what have we realised? Do these records prove much?

I mean, take the first two managers listed, for instance.
Looking purely at their WDL records, one could suggest that Mark Robins was no better than Steve Parkin.

Luckily (for me anyway) I don't judge a manager purely on how many games they've won or lost. Unless we never won a game, then clearly there would be summat wrong.

IMO, the judgment on this particular manager will be made more fairly, from January to May 2013. He built us a competitive squad last summer, and even his detractors must acknowledge he's done similarly this summer also. However, last January and the loss of a lot of key players affected the side badly. Let us hope we don't suffer the same fate, and that we this time retain most of our key laikers, so THEN we'll be able to see if Keith Hill can be the first manager of BFC in years, to end the season respectably - in other words, not losing nearly every game.

 

By the way, the stats I used came from Soccerbase, and so I'm not sure how accurate they are. Especially, when they reckon Super John was in charge of us 54 times. How'd he do that then? Don't recall a great cup run under him, and he was dismissed before the seasons end...

 

Conan Troutman's record = 99.9% pointlessly negative posts. Not reight good is it?

 

Bit harsh.

About 98% I reckon.

 

After Drinkwater, Vaz Te and Butterfield went or were injured I dont think we were that competetive so squad questionable for me.

You seem to be disregarding one set of records and creating a competition that Keith could do better than his predecessors in.

 

If you're referring to me, mate, you're wrong. I'm not saying he's better than anyone. I just think it would be fairer and easier to judge him after this January onwards. See if owts changed.

 

Let's sack him instantly and ask all fans to chip in so we can get mc carthy down!

Or hope that these rug ead's buy us and employ Sven or redknapp, that way we'll win all our games and in two years time be in't champions league

 

Hi

New to this Forum, Just like to comment, Hill has achieved his wins with little or no money, He is doing a fantastic Job, Been a fan now for over 50 yrs, And with Hill I think we are onto something special, I can only watch and listen to the reds on wigiwig and Pottys website as I live 3500 miles away, I get truly miffed when we lose but its all part of the game.

Going on those stats, whats dave bassett doing these days as he nearly had 1 win every other game! ;-)

 

No offence intended but you're just about the most irritating poster on here.

 

Racist.

 

Why didn't you post this after we'd beaten Birmingham?

 

No offence intended but your about the biggest bell end on here.

 

Because he only comes from under his fuc.king stone when we lose.
