Greatest manager
I see that the official website is giving information about a Football League competition to find the greatest manager/player etc from each club. ASFC wants us to tweet a suggested name. Not much good for old fogies like me who don't use twitter (or Facebook for that matter). The danger of tweeting the names is that it will favour more recent incumbents whereas those of us who remember Walter Galbraith, for example, would seem to be disadvantaged.

I agree entirely,to me Twitter gives a distinct advantage to more recent managers in my view, many older fans do not use it.

Re: Greatest manager
Just to let you know this is a Football League initiative so they've set that it's a Twitter thing not ASFC - the only nomination so far by the way is Walter Galbraith...

Re: Greatest manager
OK Macca, since I can't be doing with all this Twitter/Facebook rubbish, please give 'em my choice of Coley, by a country mile. OK, Walter Galbraith was a legend, but he operated on a level playing field financially, compared with the miraculous results that JC achieved on a shoestring.
