Can anyone tell me what he has achieved since he's been here?

This was posted for Brian Kidd and Sam Ellis before him.

I will say this though - him and Micky brought contrasting loanees Bent and Vokes in. Ched and Quinny have both improved vastly. Riise has.been excellent in some games, yesterday he created more than many others before him only to see it wasted by Hendo et al.

I don't know what can be directly attributed to him though

You could say the same about any assistant manager in the country.

Wasn't he supposed to be the best coach of forwards? Hardly helped our dismal goal scoring record....

We have a good record of having some of the best thought of coaches and assistant managers around, but I do think that the level of ability within the current squad can be enhanced only so much! However, the can be no excuse for our lack of passion.

So either popular opinion of our coaches abilities are wide of the mark or the players are incapable of actually playing the game they are trying to convince us is their profession!

It's very easy to work out what Blades' assistants past and present have achieved.

If you like the manager and the team's struggling, then the assistant is shit.

If you don't like the manager and the team's doing well, the assistant is amazing.

If you like the manager and the team's flying, the assistant is OK.

If you don't like the manager and the team's not doing well, then they're both useless tossers.
