Hughesy Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Are there any other examples to compare? Looking at stability and the lack of evidence for the benefit. The notion that after 10 years of mid-table stability a manager will then shoot up the league is bogus. Any long serving manager tends to peak within 5 years and maintain that level or be sacked when they drop off. How would Redknapp at Spurs work? Or is he a bad example given that Spurs have arguably got worse since he left? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Manager stability is nonsense. Getting a good manager is infinitely more important than just keeping one and hoping things get better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Very rarely anyone claims stability is a guaranteed way to acheive success, and they also don't claim that an average manager will suddenly become good. Generally they mean that sacking multiple managers over a short time causes chaos and probably won't work, and also that managers should be given a decent length of time to prove themselves. It's a fairly common sense argument really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Would be a daft thing to caution against as we approach half a decade under one manager then. 08/09 levels of flux are clearly bad for a club, but that's got no baring whatsoever on our current state.

If you appoint the right man in the first place you don't get those levels of flux. You only have to keep sacking them if you repeatedly appoint dickheads.

True, stability argument really doesn't apply to NUFC at the moment, except if you're happy to always finish mid table and aren't prepared to risk that for progress. Except if you're Mike Ashley basically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is he a bad example given that Spurs have arguably got worse since he left? 8th, 4th and 5th place finishes. Don't think it matters what a team does once a manager goes, but don't think he was there long enough to be used as an example. If he was though, it would just be another example of someone who peaked in year 2 of his reign and offers no credence to the notion that sticking by a manager offers anything other than continued performance at the level they set early on at best, diminishing returns otherwise.

Happy Face Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Once again Pardew gets some new players and lifts results. He's done this to a lesser extent year on year every season. Looking at December, I think it's safe to say the last 10 games before the next window will fit right into that lower section too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the 8th, 4th and 5th about Redknapp? First season takes over midseason when they where bottom, finish 8th & League Cup Final 4th next season 5th next season & QF's of Champions League 4th next season Spurs & Redknapp was a great match for them.
