Delima Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Look at the managers in the Championship Simon Davey, Chris Coleman, Roy Keane, Gareth Southgate, Darren Ferguson, Jim Magilton, Brendan Rodgers, Roberto Di Matteo All 40 and below, and backed by very decent track records (by Championship standard) Brendan Rodgers, Paulo Sousa, Malky Mackay - relatively new and untried, all seem bright nonetheless Is this Championship the youngest ever (managerial terms) ? Who do you back to shine in the long run? Who would flatter to deceive ? Will this championsihp be the most refreshing or would it be the weakest in recent years ? My money is on Roy Keane, Ferguson and Southgate. ---------------------------------------------- Barnsley Simon Davey -38 years old, very young Blackpool Ian Holloway - 46 years old, proven Bristol City Gary Johnson - 52 years old Cardiff City Dave Jones - 53 years old, proven Coventry City Chris Coleman - 39 years old, very young, proven Crystal Palace Neil Warnock - 60 years old, proven Derby County Nigel Clough - 43 years old Doncaster Rovers Sean O'Driscoll - 52 years old Ipswich Town Roy Keane - 37 years old, very young, proven Leicester City Nigel Pearson - 45 years old Middlesborough Gareth Southgate - 37 years old, very young, proven Newcastle United Chris Hughton - 50 years old Nottingham Forest Billy Davies - 45 years old, very young, proven Peterborough United Darren Ferguson - 37 years old, very young, proven Plymouth Argyle Paul Sturrock - 52 years old Preston North End Alan Irvine - 51 years old Queen's Park Rangers Jim Magilton - 40 years old, young, proven Reading Brendan Rodgers - 36 years old, very young Scunthorpe United Nigel Adkins - 44 years old, young Sheffield United Kevin Blackwell - 50 years old Sheffield Wednesday Brian Laws - 47 years old Swansea City Paulo Sousa - 38 years old Watford Malky Mackay - 37 years old West Bromwich Albion Roberto Di Matteo - 39 years old Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 To think that through no fault of his own, Nigel Pearson got a fair bit of stick off fans when he was here under Roeder & Allardyce. Don't think we'd have went down had he been interim manager rather than Hughton/Kinnear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we'd have went down had he been interim manager rather than Hughton/Kinnear. To be fair I think we were entitled to have a lot higher expectations back then. I don't think anyone could have known that we would end up where we are now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine if you don't rate Southgate - who do you rate ? Most of them above Southgate, all he's proven so far is he's not good enough for the Premier League. Johnson is definitely proven with three promotions and keeping Bristol City in the top half & Sturrock too, Magilton definitely isn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Adkins will be off to a bigger club in the next couple of years. 3 promotions in 5 years at Scunthorpe, finals at Wembley, players being brought through and sold on for massive profit.....the guy is a fantastic manager, and far too good for little Scunny.
