Manning

I don't trust Knapper with anything, but I don't trust Manning for the next 90 minutes. Knapper will have a longer term impact/improvement, but he's not going to change the immediate on pitch results.

And as others have said, it's been handy for Manning to have the fans turning on Knapper. Almost like we might not notice how completely incompetent he is as a coach.
