    Yeah bit unfair with what he had to work with - Spackman had money

    and inherted some decent players and completely f**ked it up

    Worst manager in my 30+ years of watching the reds absolutely no contest

    Wasn't he just a caretaker manager?

    Yep, but he only had a £35k contract as reserve team manager. If the Court case was to be believed.

    Are you really, really sure about this. I seem to remember him going to the press with a story about having done enough to get the permanent managers job. Didn't he keep us in the Championship, or is my ancient mind playing tricks with me?

    I will ask him the next time I see him.

    Not according to this buddy. Copyright Wikipedia.

    Glyn Hodges (born 30 April 1963 in Streatham, is a Welsh football manager and former player, currently managing the Blackburn Rovers reserve team. He played 18 times for the Welsh national side, scoring twice.

    Hodges started his playing career with Wimbledon and made more than 200 appearances for the Crazy Gang during seven years at the club. He had a brief spell with Newcastle United before returning south to join Watford in 1987 to reteam with ex-Wimbledon manager Dave Bassett.

    He made over 100 appearances at Vicarage Road enjoying four years at the club before joining Crystal Palace in 1991. His spell with the Eagles was short lived and the winger moved to Sheffield United and linked up once again with Bassett.

    Hodges' five years at Bramall Lane were successful and he made more than 150 appearances for The Blades before moving to Derby County for a brief spell in 1996. After a year in Malaysia, Hodges returned to England for a brief spell at Hull City. However, a big club clause in his contract allowed a move to Nottingham Forest to link once again with Bassett as a potential coach. However, an injury crisis at the start of the 1998/99 season meant Hodges was drafted in as a player. Brief spells at Total Network Solutions and Scarborough followed before Hodges hung up his boots in 2000.

    The former Dons man arrived at Barnsley in August 2000 to link up with his old friend Bassett again. His work with the reserves had seen the side regularly challenge for honours both in the league and cup.

    He was appointed caretaker manger for the first time back in October 2001 following the dismissal of Nigel Spackman and was in charge for just four games before Steve Parkin left Rochdale to take over The Tykes.

    Parkin's tenure lasted just nine months as he was dismissed, with the club going into administration following their relegation to Division Two. Hodges again became caretaker manager and remained in charge for the remainder of the season up until the sumemr of 2003. Then, with the club in desperate trouble financially, Hodges was replaced by Gudjon Thordarson, who was part of the consortium that took control of the club in June 2003.

    In early 2004, Glyn Hodges joined Mark Hughes in the Wales International set-up, becoming Wales Under 21 manager. Despite making "positive strides," Glyn was removed from his role by John Toshack's shake up of the Football Association Wales staff in December 2004

    Glyn then rejoined his former boss, Mark Hughes, as Blackburn Reserve team manager.

    He is to represent Sheffield United in the 2006 Yorkshire Masters.

    He had a separate stint as caretaker for a month after Spackman left before Steve Parkin was appointed.

    He had a proper crack at it after Parkin left.
