SuperWesIrishWizard 0 Posted November 26, 2008 [quote user="we8wba"]glenn roeder not all that bad then?[/quote]Marginally better than Peter Grant, and taking into consideration that a fifth of Worthys games were in the Premiership, that makes him pretty awful. Considering Peter Grant left us bottom of the league.If it was calculated without worthys premiership season I think that he would have about 45%......

Buncey 1 Posted November 26, 2008 I do now CT. http://www.pinkun.com/cs/forums/1473171/ShowPost.aspxIn hindsight we never really had it so good, and it seems more and more consistent (with what we are seeing now) that it wasn''t himself who architected his own-downfall but really the board who sold players from underneath him and never gave him the financial platform we needed if we actually seeked to get promoted. In my opinion we could and should have been promoted back up the season we went down, we could have done it and at the time I blamed worthington but it was clear that he was never able to hold onto any decent players he brought in. The same happened to Grant, we effectively sold our best 3 players (and the only ones that could win games for us) and then expected to do well. It doesn''t work like that.

Polar 0 Posted November 26, 2008 Take into consideration the finances that each managers had to work with, Worthy had the luxury of not having to deal with as high inflation of finances and spent most of delias money on quality players, Grant blew alot of her money on low quality players and roeders picking up the pieces.time will tell but Glenns not done too bad considering what hes got to work with.
