Hang on. I have a book (paid for) which says we got our first manager in the 1930s.

I'm a bit confused.

We did. Some people have to be clever and say that before then the secretary was the manager, which is nonsense.

Both managed to be so, so much worse than even David O'Leary.

It was just too big a job for Turner, too soon. He tried his best and he's done ok since. Have no malice towards him.

The other two are pricks though.

McNeill and DO'L are persona non gratia. Especially the pig-nosed numpty.

Correct. Thanks. I'm far too pedantic.

My mind went blank at Graham Turner.  For some reason I kept thinking of Keith Burkinshaw.  Was there a manager called that?
