Least favourite managers at Fulham

[Friendsoffulham]

Supporting the Whites must have favourites when it comes to least favourite managers at Fulham. Who didn't cut it, either through incompetence, arrogance, or a snap in the synapses. How do you choose the worst for Fulham? Vote above, and let us know if we've missed anyone  :drums:


Alan Dicks


Bobby Campbell


Don Mackay


Felix Magath


Lawrie Sanchez


Martin Jol

Martin Jol.  I still have nightmares.  Felix was a fruitcake but Jol was to blame for that whole season. 

[the nutflush]

PS Sanchez has to be up there.

[Keynsham]

Poor Alan Dicks, he was a lovely bloke.

[Marcel_Gecov]

Martin Jol.  I still have nightmares.  Felix was a fruitcake but Jol was to blame for that whole season.

The last season perhaps but when we had Dembele and Dempsey in the squad we looked brilliant. Magath bough Fotheringham, he loses.

There are two managers that stand out above the others. Alan Dicks and Felix Magath. Nobody else is in with a shout if we include these two in the list. I remember Alan Dicks trying to coach from the bench and confusing the hell out of Ivor and Coney. They kept stopping to look at him. Meanwhile the ball was gone and Alan Dicks was making snide remarks to whoever was sitting next to him. Felix we all know must just take the title.

The others in the list are non starters when it comes to being bad compared to these two.

[the nutflush]

Dembele and Dempsey weren't bought by Jol.  They were already there. They were autonmatic slections and could play on autopilot.  You or I could have managed a team with those two in the lineup.  Dembele and Dempsey couldn't wait to get out of there.  Doesn't that tell you something about Jol?

Magath will win, but it was Dicks who was worse.

[the nutflush]

Gotta add Jol to the list.  He won't win but will be a big vote grabber.  He was terrible.  His press conferences were excruciating.

You have to excuse Dicks and Mackay, they had nothing to work with , we were penny less at the time and they had very little to work with.
I think Magath has to be a runaway winner with Sanchez some way behind him.

Dicks had plenty to work with. He was incompetent at every level. Magath ditto. Sanchez brought in his players and tried playing his own style. It didn't work but he wasn't incompetent. IMO.

[Sir Alec of good Stock]

Dicks Out
Cox Out
Stop the rot sack the Scot (Don Mackay)

Legendary chants.

[Woolly Mammoth]

It's a no brainer, some were poor I admit for one reason or another. But at least they were human.
Felix Wolfgang Magath was not of this earth, and the evidence is in the season he took us down, and the damage he did to morale whilst taking us down. His treatments of respected professionals.
Then if that wasn't enough for the dudes that run Fulham, they gave this Snake Oil Salesman a licence to continue his sabotaging and pillaging of the club into the following season, can you believe. To reduce moral and the clubs credibility lower than a snakes belly, and we are still feeling the fall out of this debacle, hence why we are where we are.

Branfoot was pretty ineffective mind.  He threw in the towel and passed it on to Mickey didn't he?

Branfoot  brought in the players who added steel and experience to the team such as Cockerell, Hurlock and Alan Cork and it was the basis of that team that, with a few free transfers that Mickey Adams built in to the promotion team.
I remember his last game in charge was a 2-1 defeat at Torquay, we were 91st in the league and they were 92nd. Mickey's first game in charge was the following Tuesday in a 0-0 draw at Belle Vue Doncaster and you could see in the performance that evening that the players wanted to play for him and the rest is history.
So although Branfoot was not a successful manager, it was signings that prevented the club from going in to non league and, if that had happened and it could easily have, I doubt that Al Fayed would have looked at buying the club.

[Mince n Tatties]

This topic needs removing right away as its totally biased.Why isn't Slavisa Jokanovic on there. :hook:

[hovewhite]

PS Sanchez has to be up there.

the man was a plonker.followed by magath.

[Dr Know]

Kevin keegan and Ray wilkins .

[Snibbo]

PS Sanchez has to be up there.

the man was a plonker.followed by magath.

But sanchez at least made some good signings which is more than can be said for Magath

[Dixie]

I can't believe that Sanchez isn't absolutely running away with this. In my opinion he was worst by miles - no clue, terrible playing style and the charisma of a bin liner. I had a fair few drinks to celebrate the day he was (very belatedly) sacked.
Don't have recollection of all the others, but i would have Jol next and then probably Magath (who at the very least had some sort of plan to bring the youth through...)
