Nigel WorthingtonO''Neill was obviously destined for bigger things but didn''t achieve anything with us while he was here.  Lambert''s doing exceptionally well but hasn''t finished the job.  The three names above all had us punching well above our weight against the top sides in the country.

He was the beginning of the rot; GR and BG didn''t really do much to stop it but at least GR delayed it for a bit and was incredibly unlucky with injuries at times.

[city-till-i-die 7]

Mike Walker...for obvious reasons..promotion but for the mega football we played...it was breathtaking at times [:D]

Paul Lambert...lets hope he stays with NCFC for some time as imho with the backing of the board i feel he can take us all the way back to the prem.

Glen Roeder...for being great in the transfer market and a wonderful tactition[:|]

Bondy was my favourite, he was a real character and he picked up some really good bargains for us (Martin Peters, Jimmy Neighbour etc). For achievement it has to be Mike Walker although the basis of a good side was left to him by Dave Stringer.Going way way back I also nominate Archie Macauly for the way he put this club back on the map after we nearly went out of business.

If I''m honest, I cant really remember too much, but both were pretty poor.

In my lifetime (since 1984):1) Mike Walker2) O''Neill3) Worthington/Lambert.  Can''t seperate them right now.

[Mister Chops 7]

[quote user="Mr_Chimp"]3) Worthington/Lambert.  Can''t seperate them right now.[/quote]Really? I''ll help you, then.  One took us to a playoff final and then won the 2nd division championship, only getting relegated on the last day of the Premiership season.  The other one has taken us to the top of the 3rd division.

Mike Walker

John Bond

Far too early to put Lambert in there yet,we''re in the 3rd division ffs.

Lambert

Worthy

Jim Duffy :P

[nutty nigel 7,902]

Bondy was my favourite manager too Rickyyyy.

Stringers team which Walker motivated to those great heights in the early 90''s was, I believe, heavily influenced by David Williams. Williams wasn''t a manager so I guess I can''t include him. If I could he''d be number one for me.

 

[ZLF 335]

O''Neill

Stringer

Walker

 

Lambert has the potential to be the very best of the bunch.

Bugger! I''d quite forgotten Archie, and Ron Saunders too!

[Nexus_Canary 1,206]

I still remember how I felt when Walker left for Everton !I expect its a similar feeling to that Colchester fans had when Lambert left them :(

[Graham Paddons Beard 2,791]

Has everybody forgotten Ron Saunders?

[PKC 0]

1) Ron Saunders

2) Dave Stringer

3) John Bond

[Beauseant 0]

In chronological order:

Saunders

Bond

Walker

 Worthy gets an  honourable mention, but O''Neill wasn''t here long enough to figure in my top three. Lambert has the potential to be great, but I suspect that his real glory days will be elsewhere.

[SwindonCanary 457]

Well, for me the top manager has to be Ron Saunders, untill then we had been an average team, continually doing nothing. Since then our outlook has always be up.

Look up your history of Norwich City !

[Willmeister 35]

1. Walker2. Worthington (How Worthy hasn''t got more nominations is beyond me, he took us for a team who could have been easily relegated to a play-off final team in one season, then champions two seasons later)3. Lambert
