    Managers who picked players for the club to get v Coachs that have to pick from short lists compiled by someone else. Mmmmm

    McSeveney v these last 2

    I honestly think Poya’s the worst.

    Lots of the others on the list had some seriously mitigating circumstances.

    I don’t think Poya’s got a bad first eleven at all. It’s far better than what we had early in the season.

    Callum Styles still playing right wing back today after Vita went off whilst we had the right footed Quina at left wing back was one of the worst tactical decisions I can remember seeing. 3 proper forwards waiting on deliveries into the box yet our wide men are having to check back onto their strong feet every time. Ridiculous

    So many times we’ve been leading by a goal & he’s not changed it whilst we’ve been under pressure which has cost us points. We were winning 1-0 the other week & Morris was injured & couldn’t run & he left pacey players sat on the bench instead of replacing him.

    Fully agree. Jim Iley shouldn't be anywhere near the list.

    Spackman for me, followed by the last two.

    Not sure LJ warrants inclusion on the list. We've had a lot worse over the years.

    Looking like

    Poya
    Schopp

    And 1 from Morais or Spackman in the final 3.

    Teamwork makes the dream work folks. Get your man into the final.

    It's a close call between Schopp & Ashbagi and I've seen Spackman, Parkin & Hodges.

    Unfortunately we've had our worst two managers in my lifetime this season. My only saving grace is I don't go as far back as McSeveney

    I do unfortunately am old enough to remember McSeveney and Spackman but to get 2 in one season takes some ineptitude of biblical proportions

    Spackman allegedly was instrumental in Big Winnie having to leave Oakwell.

    Goes some way to explain my choice.

    Schopp.

    Never thought anyone would beat Spackman for ineptitude.

    Too young for McSeveney.

    Poya would just be behind Parkin for me.

    Non of these names & Morais too bring me any sense of joy, in fact a cold sweat in the middle of the night.

    Spackman by a country motorway.
    Looked like a ponce, dressed like a ponce and made his team play like ponces in perms.

    After a spirited start Morais looks like dropping out of the final 3. Come on Jose fans vote for your man

    I went with Asbaghi.

    I can understand the larger sentiment for Schopp, but I think he had the brunt of the issues with unfit players and missing Morris and Mads for so long, and not having his own coaching team who he could trust also played a big part.

    Asbaghi has been absolutely awful. Dreadful tactics, lack of attacking intent and insipid soulless and delusional words.

    He's had injuries too, but he's also been able to call on Quina and Bassi that Schopp wasn't able to do.

    That would make all 3 worst managers those appointed under our current ownership!

    We dont seem to do average managers with this lot
    I cant put Morais in the same class as Schopp, Asbaghi, Spackmann or McSeveny though. He was just a bad manager not truly appalling - more in the Parkin or Hodges mould.

    We just have to hope that we get another good one next season ideally a Val or Daniel but I'd take just a good solid manager as long as they play more attacking football
