    You cant listen to a word this guy says he thinks Stuart McCall is our best ever manager, if that's his judgement then Messi should be in non-league.

    Just to be clear, I've never once said McCall is our best ever manager.

    The football we played under Jagger was sensational. What a squad he put together. Shame how it panned out with Richmond. If Jags would've had full control I think he could've established us in the top flight. What could've been?

    if Richmond hadn't lost his marbles I reckon Jewell would have kept us up again that second season in the PL. and then who knows.

    I tend to agree, especially about Richmond, but Jewell did have some dodgy moments at times...playing our best defender up front (Wethers) and then finding ourselves 3 - 0 down within 20 mins against our closest contenders....thing is though that always gets me about replacing managers is that they have to be right and Hutchings was never right for the job...see a similarity from the last 18 months?

    Jewell also had a massive budget that other city managers could only dream of

    Didn't waste a penny of it though. All signings contributed to us getting promotion that season and the following year in the premier league. Can't think of any of the signings who had a negative effect and flopped for us.

    A million for Rankin? Although I agree jagged was the best!

    I think Richmond was the main instigator in signing Rankin
    Don't think Jewell saw him as a good addition to the club

    Jewell definitely the best manager of the two for us. Best manager in my time though was Trevor Cherry, brilliantly assisted by Terry Yorath

    Jewell did really, really well.

    But Richmond targeted transfers, and had a lot of input into team selection.

    Parkinson controlled everything.

    It's hard to praise Jewell without praising Richmond, but Parky did it all his own way.

    Roy McFarland. What a player, inspirational. Wrong time though.
