Here's how that might have been written had it all been happening in today's game:
'Bobby Robson was appointed Ipswich Town's sixth manager (one day before Sir Matt Busby resigned from Manchester United). The former England striker, the third-longest serving manager in the top two divisions, had been sacked by Fulham a year earlier after a mammoth tenure of 18 months in his first managerial job.' |  |

Ahh. Mr John.
Now there was a gentleman who knew a thing or two about appointing, encouragement and retention of his staff. |  | | |

this sort of thing and the reference to number of managers we've had (which still isn't that many) always reminds me of how many of those we've ever actually sacked.
Bobby F, John Duncan, Burley, Magic, Keane, Hurst, Lambert? Although one or two of those i'm not 100% on either.
Milburn? [Post edited 13 Jan 13:04]
