If you honestly cannot tell the difference between MM and Allardyce you really are far more stupid than anyone has yet given you credit for.

I get there are a few who hate MM as much as Allardyce but to think they are the same means you are either far too young to remember Allardyce managing Bolton or just plain ridiculously stupid. Either way, learn some history of ITFC before posting such ridiculous nonsense.

Dont think sam would be a no go for the new owners tbh based on off field issues.

So you are changing from "they are the same" to we should accept him because there are similar in the current set-up!

Still unsure whether you are trolling or stupid.

? I'm saying having an off field issue wouldnt be something to chalk him off for clearly based on current staff off field issues.


You said there are clear differences between them as managers. What is it exactly? It's ok to feel that. But share why.

I'm intrigued based on football itself and management itself why a large batch of mick lovers wouldnt want fat sam. That's the question which as yet hasnt been answered in this thread.

Mick McCarthy turned ITFC from relegation certainties to play off contenders on a tight budget. He is a respectable manager who has always had a wry sense of humour and allowed some fans who had very high expectations to get under his skin. He said some things he shouldn't have done because he cared. He won't be back and so the obsession from some on here is fairly pointless.

Sam Allardyce is a wide boy who hates ITFC to the core after we (in his eyes) conned him out of promotion to the Premier League when we got the better of them on the pitch.

Regardless what you think of their management styles, Allardyce should never be thought of as anywhere close to a manager for ITFC. McCarthy is ITFC history and probably just about the best bit of it for the past 15 years.

Tell me, why can you not see the difference between them? To me it is a bit like saying nothing wrong with Daniel Farke, what's the difference between him and George Burley? Or nothing wrong with Lambert, whats the difference between him and Alan Lee?

Not quite sure why youd compare a player with a manager tho so thats not relevant.

Farke. Burley. Burley edges it of course. Nodge would probably say different.

But again you're talking sentiment with mick.
Weve no time for sentiment. We need results and promotion. The idea mick is a better idea just because hed already managed here imo doesnt make sense when there are many managers of similar ilk to mick. Sam being one of them.

Well, Allardyce hates us and without speaking for all Town fans, I certainly hate him too.

Mick on the other hand kept us in the championship with one of the lowest budgets, even into the playoffs which for comparison would be like Cambridge finishing in the playoffs this season in terms of finances.

Mick is 10x the manager of Cook so I guess that's the primary reason why. Because of associated history and fans treatment of him it'll never happen, obviously, and I don't think going back is typically a good idea, but do I think had we not had mick in charge before, replaced Cook with Mick next week would we get playoffs? Almost definitely.

It's quite funny, because I remember reading this forum at that time and 99.9% of people were giving McCarthy pelters on here. You would have been hard pressed to find anyone liking him or wanting him to remain at the club.

Now he's lauded as some sort of hero. Some of you have very short memories.
