Phil Parkinson, Mike Newell, Steve Cotteril, Steve Tilson

All touted as great young managers and better options than Worthy/Grant. All have struggled this season.

Do some of you still think they could do a better job?

      - Yeah but he's done the same job. (Other Football) - Steve in Holland, Apr 3, 12:51:25
        
        We also beat sunderland 1-0, west brom away, cardiff 1-0 (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 12:55:28
        
        We also lost to Sunderland 1-0 a few weeks later and put up no fight what so ever (n/m) (Other Football) - Brom, Apr 3, 12:57:44
        
        not entirely true, we always pulled the odd result out of the hat with worthy (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 12:57:34
        
        but we win away with Grant, something we never did with Worthy (n/m) (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 12:58:32
        
        about the same really (Other Football) - Brandonio, Apr 3, 13:01:20
        
        I'm trying not to use stats as a base though (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:31:46
        
        true but Southampton this season... (Other Football) - Brandonio, Apr 3, 13:33:52
        
        Yeah, I take that on board, although, I see this season as a blessing (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:36:09
        
        exactly how often? (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:01:11
        
        especially at home (n/m) (Other Football) - Brandonio, Apr 3, 12:58:08
        
        Basically there's been no realy difference. I think we can agree there. (n/m) (Other Football) - Steve in Holland, Apr 3, 13:00:13
        
        preston 2 nil, Luton 3-2, barnsley 5-1 (that might be the lot...) (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 12:59:02
        
        I'll pull up 2 of these results too, Preston had injury madness when we played them (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:02:11
        
        and Luton had half a team compared to when worthy played them (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:04:24
        
        But they were away from home! (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:06:03
        
        Barnsley was a good result - Luton are going to finish bottom (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:07:35
        
        wait did Grant lose to 9 men at home.... (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:08:02
        
        reading too much into the wolves thing, especially as we nearly beat them away (n/m) (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:12:38
        
        well they are in the play-offs. (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:14:21
        
        are you now saying wolves are a good team then? (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:16:11
        
        2 steps forward? maybe.... lets hope he gets rid of the shit (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:19:36
        
        Worthy would have never pulled off the Luton and Barnsley away wins (n/m) (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:00:04
        
        hard to say really... (Other Football) - Brandonio, Apr 3, 13:02:16
        
        Worthy beat Sheff Utd away last year... (Other Football) - Brom, Apr 3, 13:04:32
        
        true, got him manager of the month (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:09:13
        
        and Ipswich (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:05:41
        
        see Barnsley and red card example (n/m) (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:08:04
        
        see wolves and 9 man example (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:09:07
        
        we were already losing though (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:10:57
        
        I am hopeful Grant is doing a good job (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:12:31
        
        To be fair... (Other Football) - Brom, Apr 3, 13:10:32
        
        why not? I dont remember us doing too much in the second half (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:11:13
        
        one of the red cards was at the end, so this 9 men thing is a bit much (n/m) (Other Football) - pants, Apr 3, 13:14:25
        
        9 men is 9 men ;) (Other Football) - phrankin, Apr 3, 13:15:49
