Top 10 managers accused of incompetence on a grander scale than the norm (Observer Sport

At number 1 Graeme Souness followed by :-
Egil Olsen, Hristo Stoichkov, Ossie Ardiles, David Platt.
At number 6 our very own Glenn Roeder "The League is littered with regretful Chairmen who decided to put the assistant in charge. Wigley at Southampton and Reed at Charlton take some beating in an overcrowded field, but it requires a special skill to take down a squad containing David James, Joe Cole, Fredi Kanoute, Paulo DiCanio and Jermaine Defoe, as Roeder did at West Ham in 2003. Then again, when you consider his "train guard announcing planned engineering works impression at post-match interviews, it is not surprising that West Ham didn't win a home league game for five months"

Bitchy or what?

By the way the remaining were Alan Ball, the 1966 England World Cup Squad, Claude Anelka and Jim Fallon.
