I don't see the relevance of someone being the best manager in our history

because of their current results in league one

If that was an argument, you could say Joe Mercer was the best England manager of all time

Do you think that?

- He's only 5 places away from where Roeder had us when he got sacked (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 15:53:59
  - Actually Roeder's win/game ratio was worse than Grant's (NCFC) - duke of york, Jan 4, 16:07:55
    - Worthy?s stats are pretty good actually (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 4, 16:11:17
      - Worthy and Ken Brown are the best win-per-game ratios over a long period (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 4, 16:12:20
        
        I do wonder what would have happened if we gave Worthy more time (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 4, 16:14:18
        
        Yeah, shows how much the expectation rises when (NCFC) - duke of york, Jan 4, 16:15:42
      - And Megson is statistically the worst ever (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Jan 4, 16:12:05
        
        which is quite incredible considering (NCFC) - jayson blair, Jan 4, 17:34:05
        
        Sometimes even statistics can tell the truth ! (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 4, 16:12:45
  - what does roeder have to do with anything? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 4, 15:56:30
    - He was one of our managers (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 15:57:08
      - Dear oh dear (NCFC) - Rofl_Harris, Jan 4, 16:02:06
      - It's so much better when you don't talk about ncfc. (NCFC) - Trolling AGAIN, Jan 4, 15:59:39
        
        Are you a personified contridiction? (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 16:01:11
        
        No (n/m) (NCFC) - Trolling AGAIN, Jan 4, 16:02:17
      - and why is he relevant? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 4, 15:58:59
        
        I've answered this question already (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 16:02:33
        
        you could bring up roeder on any norwich thread then (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 4, 16:05:16
        
        I don't see the relevance of someone being the best manager in our history (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 16:06:45
        
        He didn't. He said the highest win per game ratio. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 4, 16:09:34
        
        i didn't say he was the best manager in our history (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 4, 16:09:20
        
        He picks Darel Russell though, you know, the player you said you were going to boo (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 16:11:25
        
        so i should turn on lambert for picking a player i don't like? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 4, 16:14:32
        
        No, you should like the players he picks, cos you think he's the most successful manager (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 16:17:10
        
        i don't think it (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 4, 16:19:31
        
        That, ladies and gentlemen, is called fudging the argument (NCFC) - Yellalee, Jan 4, 16:13:51
        
        Everyone does it in here though. I asked Selwyn a direct question this morning, he dodged (NCFC) - pants, Jan 4, 16:19:16
