Yep, I mean since when does a league table tell you how good the manager is
I never rated malky as imo most managers would have got us up on what he was given so its no love in for me
If football was only about money and not any real management skills then the Premier League and Football League would look very different.
Malky was the best manager we've ever had in my opinion.
Made me laugh thought you were being serious but obviously you having a laugh right??

Wigan were in shit when Malky took over so I don't see your point there![]()
I'm not a Malky lover by any means but I know he is much better than Slade

What he has said or not said is irrelevent to me TBH, Fact is, he took us up, his style of football not to all's enjoyment, bot GOD was effective as the results proved, first half of prem season showed we were the 2nd best defensive side there, then shite happens and sack the guy when we are 6th from bottom and holding our own for survival, the rest is history.
Probs be another 50 yrs before we get there again (not in my lifetime)....
As an old soldier, i will use this phrase to any Manager, GIVE ME THE BULLETS TO FIRE MY GUN''

Please tell me again how excellent Malky was as a manager... if your rose tinted glasses are to be believed I'll have to ask a P.I. to do some serious digging to find out what went on to make the media and club report such bad results...

Were 16th so fifth from bottom and one point off the relegation places after the southampton result (3 nil loss). Only heading one way too.

Down and out. He bottled it, totally and utterly. Crap football and getting crap results. Constantly slated for boring and poor performances and he set us on the road back down to the championship.
Our fans were turning against him, that's the only reason Tan could get rid of him (he said himself in an interview the only reason he didn't fire him sooner was because the fans loved him... but when the fans turned they made it easy to give him the heave ho)

Pretty sure Malky was still here and started off our "sharp and continuing decline"

Maybe so. But OGS made a pretty good job of carrying it on.
