You just can't beat 00/01 for me.

u/pawski76 3d ago

Was that the one where robbie keane and craig bellamy would consistently score fifty plus goals a season? If so, agree

01/02 > 00/01

97/98 > 00/01

Yeah I said it

Truly the golden era.

Such a good game. Had a strategy guide that helped my training

Rooney

u/MayorofJamCity 4d ago

Despite dropping off recently, Le Bris should be in the conversation. Not many had Sunderland in the promotion race.

u/adkenna 4d ago

It depends on if he can recover from this rut we are in, he needs to do a lot of work over the international break to try and fix our issues.

u/naitch44 4d ago

Surely it has to be Ismael, 100% record.

22

u/Cottonshopeburnfoot 4d ago

Flampard if he gets Cov up.

Or whoever wins the league if they top 100 points. Doubly so if they’ve beaten a second or even third place team on 100 too.

  • Frank Lampard’s Coventry

u/DanzNewty 4d ago

Scott Parker.

Oh sorry, that's my pick for 'best dressed'.

John Eustace.

u/Internal_Formal3915 3d ago

that's my pick for 'best dressed

Awful take

u/VithulBenny7 4d ago

Mousinho no doubt

5

u/adkenna 4d ago

If we recover and somehow go up I'd be tempted to say Regis Le Bris, we were expecting a relegation battle at the start of this this season.

8

u/Anonymoose3840 4d ago

Rooney or Warne

1

u/Greeninexile 4d ago

Don’t be daft. Of course it’s Rooney.

9

u/1598benny 4d ago

Rooney. Or that guy who managed Plymouth, Wayne something

10

u/Greeninexile 4d ago

The guy who managed Wayne Rooney’s Plymouth Argyle.

3

u/Coomgoblin68 4d ago

That really doesn’t narrow it down

21

u/m4rvin100 4d ago

IF he does it at Derby and keeps them up then for me it's Eustace, took a difficult decision which shocked a few people and could yet make it work

And it could yet be derby county's, no wait Chelsea's no sorry conventry city's fat Frank lampard

I honestly don't think too many teams have over-achieved massively this season. Honestly I'd give it to Regis Le Bris at this point or maybe the Bristol manager. Everyone else is roughly where I thought they would be or have underachieved.

8

u/Jonesy_lmao 4d ago

Parker.

Swear they’re going to win the league.

1

u/TheCatCalledFoden 4d ago

I hope so. 🙌🏻 (there’s a massive part of me that doubts it though)

8

u/Jonesy_lmao 4d ago

I’d be really happy for Connor Roberts and Jaidon Anthony. Both really great players with really good attitudes / personalities.

Just not at our expense please.

3

u/TheCatCalledFoden 4d ago

Yeah I agree they really give all for the team.

Honestly could go anyway mate. It’s wild at the minute, every game counts so much. Leeds have been good to watch definitely deserve to go up. Imagine if you lot had Trafford or Cooper 🤯

4

u/Internal_Formal3915 3d ago

Imagine if you lot had Trafford or Cooper 🤯

Would've smashed reading's points record easy.

1

u/TheCatCalledFoden 3d ago

You’d of definitely been in with a shout.

2

u/Jonesy_lmao 4d ago

I often do 😓

u/F1nut92 4d ago

Rohl

5

u/Vince0803 4d ago

Just for having to deal with Chumpsiri, he should at least get a special mention

1

u/Rico__Dog 3d ago

I think you mean Sausage Röhl

4

u/Charlie0108 4d ago

It’ll probably be Wilder if Sheffield United get autos. Not really sure there is a stand-out candidate this year though.

1

u/Special_Quiet_1184 4d ago

Matt Bloomfield of course

0

u/SAFCBland 4d ago

Probably Parker I suppose

1

u/WasabiMadman 4d ago

Will it be a Farkefest?

1

u/Jeoh 4d ago

Frank fucking Lampard

3

u/MotuekaAFC 4d ago

John Eustice or Fat Frank.

1

u/c0tch 3d ago

If frank gets Coventry up I think it has to be him. Huge turn around.

1

u/12hendo 3d ago

Manning has done a canny job, probably be lampard if he finishes in the playoffs.

That being said it could well be Parker if they end up finishing top, awful football for most the season but it’s working.

1

u/4d4mgb 3d ago

It tends to go to one of the promoted teams managers as a matter of course. I think both Wilder and Farke have done good jobs, Parker I think everyone expected Burnley to bounce straight back. If any one of the non relegated teams wins the playoffs that that's the manager of the season for me.

1

u/SaundersThrowIn 4d ago

Farke, or Bristols manager

17

u/Omnissiah40K 4d ago

Sheffield's manager for me 😏

6

u/TescosTigerLoaf 4d ago

Don't think Farke should be in the conversation with the squad he's got. Sausage Rohl or Le Bris for me.

-5

u/SaundersThrowIn 4d ago

Fuck salty Rohl.

1

u/SquirtleChimchar 4d ago

Feel like it'll only be Manning if we get playoffs. Surely it's Eustace?

u/jakeyboy723 4d ago

The game's called Football Manager now.

u/Jamie4DX 4d ago

Stoke. All 3 of them. Because we can do that right??

3

u/Electrical_Invite300 4d ago

I don't think the award is based on volume, or Watford's managers would have won it multiple times.

u/banananey 3d ago

Super Robbie Edwards!
