Yeah but he's done the same job.

"beaten the best team in the country home and away"

I thought we lost 4-0.

Anyway, we also lost FIVE-ONE to STOKE, THREE-NIL TO FUCKING COLCHESTER, PLYMOUTH, THE SCUM, etc.

Judge him next season. This year he's made no discernable difference but he has too many excuses to really criticise him yet.

        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
