Best RFC Manager Ever

[Woodcote Royal]

I owe Ian Royal an apology. As fuktards go, he's 2nd division at best.

[Woodcote Royal]

LOL at anyone needing to "load" the poll options to produce coppell as the winner
deLOLuded

So why only give 5 choices?

One manager was in charge for 20 years. What makes him worse than Coppell?

The fact is, none of us have a clue either way which makes this whole poll an utter farce and Coppell's fan club claiming victory for their hero no less pathetic than usual.

what makes him worse? a million things you WUM- 20 years is good, and would probably have got the man into the top 5 and deservedly so.
but 5-10-15-20-30-40- years; it wouldnt have mattered.

theres nowt pathetic on this ere thread except the two bitter coppell haters, still desperately harping on about how shit he was.
just get over yourselves the two of you.

and still LOL at you for thinking someone had "loaded" the poll to get the answer they wanted.
its just the answer. end of.

What has Alan Pardew done for the club. Mick Gooding and Micky Quinn did more.

LOL @ LoyalRoyalFan - again showing his total lack of knowledge!

Jimmy. Spelling mistake.

That's one hell of a spelling mistake you got 3 out of 5 letters wrong, but forget that, the rest of it is bollocks as well.

Alright. Alan Pardew got us promoted. Mick Gooding and Jimmy Quinn got us to a Divison One Play-Off Final. In all fairness, it was some achievement.

Or, looking it from a different angle, they inherited the best set of players this club had ever had, and still failed to get promotion.

Following that the direction was consistently downward (not necessarily their all their fault though)

Off the back of all the hard work of Mark McGhee, they just held the ship steady for a couple of months. If they were better than Pardew they wouldn't have spent the next few seasons placing at 18 or lower.

Pardew took us from being in danger of relegation to tier 4 to a game from promotion to tier 1.

You are really clueless.

I'm not saying Pardew didn't do a good job, because he did. However, my opinion of him was greatly lowered after he became greedy and walked out on us. Mick Gooding and Micky Quinn did a good job. They took the club over in a bad patch after the departure of McGhee and they did well. But in all fairness, Pardew ruined his reptuation and undone his good work here by moving to West Ham.

[Ian Royal]

Can you define "did well" again please?

I don't give a rat's arse how Pardew left or what it did to his reputation. He still took us from roughly 64th to 24th and when he left us it was in a position where that success could be sustained and built on.

[Elm Park Old Boy]

Bit of a no-brainer.

Your correct. Pardew did lay the foundations for future sucess. However Gooding and Quinn brought us closer than ever before to top-flight football and made us believe we could do it again.

People don't usually give in that easily.


Good on you.

Is the result upsetting you? Ignore it then!

[The whole year inn]

Championship champions with a record breaking 106 points and 99 goals scored.
Premier League 8th place finish.

Winner: Steve Coppell.

Royalee oxf*rd off!!

+1!!!!!!!

oxf*rd you, Royalee!!

-1

Fcuk those that start polls like this merely to w@nk over Steve Coppell who, along with his over paid and under and performing squad, is not only the main reason we haven't won at home since January but is also the person who WASTED all the money we no longer have on wages for his favorites.

Rodgers could be sacked at the end of the season but so far he's well on the way to sorting the mess Coppell left behind simply because he couldn't move on from 2005-6.

were you dropped on your head as a child...?

[Harpers So Solid Crew]

simply because he couldn't move on from 2005-6.

ever compared the 05/06 players to those last season, you should, as last season included many you thought should have been there.

Bikey, Armstrong, cisse, ingi,Gunnarsson, it was a lot different to the 05/06 team and squad. Sadly coppels replacements were not as good as those allowed to move on, or that retired or were out injured.

almost a totally different team, and he dropped every one of his"favourites" at some point, giving debuts to multiple youth team players

but that wont stop the chuckle brothers trying to rewrite the history books to fit their dull repetetive arguments
