The facts are, He had the best squad in the tournament but played many of the wrong ones. If a manager keeps picking players who refuse to perform (even if they have been brilliant before) he should be sacked and those players never seen again.

I feel that he did a great job behind the scenes arranging the best facilities and accommodation for the players but held them back when it came to the football.

Id argue france and Portugal had more well rounded squads but each to their own and GS did pick the squad

Neither of those things are facts, they're both your opinion.

We won Division One in 94, does that count?

Definitely!! It was the same trophy that the winners of the top flight always used to win before they started calling it the premier league. That’s why it always bugs me when people say we haven’t won a major trophy, we have!!

How do you work that one out.? It was the 2nd tier not the top tier.
Best we ever did was 3rd in Div1 when it WAS the top tier in 1991. The year we also won the Zenith cup

Was you actually around then? Because it would be obvious if you were.

The 2nd tier became division one when the premier league started, we won division one the season after and received the same trophy that all the previous winners of division one won when it was still the top flight, hence we won a major trophy, I like to gloss over the fact that it was now being given to the winners of the 2nd tier

I was at Wembley when we lifted the cup after beating Everton 4-1 if that’s what you mean.

Yup, the Division One Trophy, which we have also won as per your pic, tho GS wern't England manager then, incase some people think that.

 


This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.
