Thank you, Juan Rebelde, perfectly put. As I said, a midget, standing on the shoulders of giants. To equate where Bill Nick took us, to what Harry was given is manifestly nonsense.

To be fair this is all nonsense. You cannot compare managers from different periods in any case. The stats are meaningless and so too is the fact that Bill left a legacy. I'm pretty sure the kind of dominance by 5 or 6 teams at the top did not exist in the 60's and 70's as it does today - there would have been one or two teams and they would only last a few years as money was not part of the game. Harry isn't the worlds best manager but there are very few in that top bracket and we are not a club that could attract them as we are an also-ran club. Just enjoy the best period of our premiership history and give credit to Harry for being at the helm through that.
