So where did Brian come?

Number 19 Bryan Gunn
Norwich (January 2009 - August 2009)

Bryan is probably cursing his daughter Melissa right now.

She''s the one that set up a ''Bryan Gunn for Norwich manager'' group on Facebook.

2,000 people signed up, Delia gave him the job and the Canaries were promptly relegated and then hammered 7-1 in their League One season opener by Colchester.

Thats not too bad for a first try.

48. Glenn Roeder
Newcastle (Feb 2006 - May 2007);Norwich (Oct 2007 - Jan 09)

After taking over from Graeme Souness in February of 2006, Roeder expertly guided Newcastle from the relegation zone to a well-earned 7th spot.

Despite a promising start the following, after winning the Intertoto Cup, inconsistent form and only one win in ten games ultimately forced his resignation...
End of the Roed: Glenn Roeder was sacked by both Newcastle and Norwich

End of the Roed: Glenn Roeder was sacked by both Newcastle and Norwich

And then there was Norwich. In his first season at Carrow Road, the former West Ham boss saved the Canaries from relegation.

But in a carbon copy of his St James'' Park departure, Roeder was once again handed his P45.

I don''t get how Roeder is in the top 50 when both of those stints he was actually relatively "successful" in the first year of each...........(i.e. he was successful for 50% of each stint)

The vast majority of management stints are totally devoid of any success whatsoever..........If we look at Worthington he had far more mediocre seasons than good ones at CR.

Add that to his horrific stint at Blackpool................But I bet he doesn''t make the list.

The truth is Roeder is/was not a well liked person either by the fans or by the press.............Sounds like an excuse to put the boot in rather than factual reporting.

How is Bryan Robson only 13th?  At least Walker took city to europe one a shoestring while robsons succession of failure should have put him comfortably in the top 10...

I don''t know how much these kind of surveys mean, anyway. Just picking two names at random from that list (I couldn''t be bothered to read through the whole tedious piece); Ince was not too shabby during his spells in chargeof Macclesfield and MK Dons (1st time round, and doing ok now), and Scolari did something that not very many managers have ever done; won the World Cup - albeit with an excellent squad of players. No, these surveys need to be taken with a massive pinch of salt - as do most things published by the fascist Mail!

As already stated............It''s "managerial reigns" not worst managers.........

Clough is number 1 (44 days at Leeds) yet one of the best managers of all time.

Have to say dont really agree with Brian Clough being at the top. Personally I would have put souness up there for his spell at liverpool. Also Glenn Roeder should definately be in the top 10. Basically every team who he has managed have been relegated or gone onto be relegated. And he also managed to take west ham down with a team that had Michael Carrick, Frank Lampard, Joe cole and Jermain Defoe
