Damien Comolli looks back in contentment at his Tottenham years

[t-baggins]

You can argue what you want but branding the year long tenure of a manager than lifted silverware as disastrous is plain wrong.

re-word it to say a disastrous start in the league or disastrous league results record i'd make you right.
But over all that cup win was mint and he therefore wasn't a disaster.

Had Ramos had his way and remained he could have won the Fa cup, the Carling Cup, and the Uefa cup... But had we got relegated this season, his 18 month tenure would have been a major f*cking disaster!!! No two ways about it.
As for our academy, sure they are getting results, but only when some of those youngsters start making an impact in our first team... (Impact ala Gerrard... Owen... Young... West Ham 10 years ago) should Mr Comolli receive any congratulations.
At the moment he spent nigh on 180 million squid, and we are heading into a UEFA cup game with ONE fit striker... (Campbell has injury concern) so he can f*ck off! TWAT... He needs to get on f*cking FM09 and see how he does... me thinks not very well... So he shouldn't run a football club.

I did, reluctantly, and at one point last season bought into the hype. Then I slapped myself round the face a few times.

Maybe we should have looked at his record with Malaga, and taken note of the fact that the second UEFA cup victory was gained with several massive dollops of luck. His ability to alienate players seems to be nothing new, either.

But as far as Damo is concerned, I agree with Eddie—compare his signings over the last two years with those of other clubs and they stack up pretty well in terms of quality. The question is, were they the players we needed at the time?

This is not a valid point on Ramos' abilities. Read Martin Samuels article in The Times about Benitez history pre-valencia

"Before getting the Valencia job, Rafael BenÍtez was sacked by Real Valladolid, having won two games in 23, sacked by Osasuna after one win in nine, won promotion with Extremadura only to be relegated after one season, but then took Tenerife up; and two promotions were enough to convince Valencia that he was worth a shot at the big time"
