Which ex manager would you pick 13:46 - Oct 19 with 1700 viewsBluefish

If you had a one off big game and needed one of them to step in and manage your team for a day?

I won't include big Mick because it wouldn't be a fair contest and the numbskull lot have suffered enough

keane
Jewell
Hurst
Lambert
Cook


Remember one off big game and not their players

The performances were much better, we just didn't have the players with any experience to do what we needed, whether that's play nasty or nice. Evidenced by the Millwall/Bristol games where we should've won but couldn't hold on. The squad was so poor.


The Improved Performances largely consisted of us toothlessly stroking it around in midfield for 15 minutes, before losing by a couple of goals.

We needed survival football. We got the Lambert Walk.

Still amazes me how he gets let off.

As I've said a LOT recently, we are too quick as a fanbase to start cults around managers(notably Keane and Lambert, maybe arguably Cook but to a far lesser degree) who don't deserve it.
Poor old Mick had to save us from relegation and take us to the top half of the table before we did anything like that!
Dear old Joe Royle had a section of the fanbase(including the fool who's writing this - I like to think I'm older and wiser on that front now) that never took to him, despite all he managed to achieve.

birmingham, first game, i guess that would have been a BIG game.

Boro at home too


Yep. We were bottom, seven points adrift of safety with an utterly disorganised and demotivated rabble of a team. He needed to be quick off the blocks results-wise to stand any chance of keeping us up.

Not letting him off at all. He was a total disaster and deserved to go about 18 months sooner than he did. But he did get a response when he came in from the players, absolutely. We might have been rubbish but there was a response and he got them motivated for a short time.

We'd probably keep a cleat sheet what him likely playing 4 CBs and 4 CMs.

Jewell would probably do alright if he didn’t have time to sign half a dozen pensioners and shoehorn them all into the side at once

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

If you want to nit pick Cook isn’t (yet) an ex Ipswich manager.

I think Lambert would probably organise us best and if he is on it could inspire them initially at least

Personally, I'd have said Royle. Home against Sheffield United with ten men was a masterclass in motivation.
