I think then that is the only comparison is the  length of time they stay at a club

I disagree never liked Ferguson myself but his record speaks for itself and so does Middlo's.

Be nice if Middlo went and managed another club and see if he can be successful without firstly Fords money and without changing large numbers of riders throughout the season.

If he can do it at another club then maybe he can be mentioned in the same breath as Rosco and Adams.....until then he will only ever be seen as a good manager rather than a great one

You usually provide your 'facts' to back up your opinion.  Can't wait to see them this time.......................!!!!:rofl:

I just dont see Middlo as the greatest manager thats all its called my opinion.

He has had the best financial backing over the years at Poole and has been able to change riders as and when Poole need to. 

In my opinion Rosco and Adams have proved they can do it at other clubs with less resources.

Lets see how Middlo can do at a different club is all im saying.

Poole fans will quite rightly feel he is the best because he has managed their club but i think any manager could have managed Poole..............he was awful as Team GB boss.

Don't think you can hold his GB record against him, the only time we had a chance was in 2004 when we could have won, all the riders always pulled out their best for Middlo.

It goes both ways. 

A lot of people say Sir Alex is the greatest manger of all time. (Yes, he did manage more than 1 team) but the success was with 1 team that was the richest and had the best players in the world. 

You still have to win. And I think some of 8 prem titles middlo has been pretty impressive. Yes, 2013 was quite easy but 2015 he kept the side together after the shock. 

I do get the argument though. 

But I would certainly not describe Adams and Rosco as great if middlo isn’t described as great. In 20 years time people remember championships more than anything else.

I wonder if Matt was the one finding the riders and putting the team/changes together. I don't know, but Matt certainly knows the rule book inside out ;)
