So, based on comments from CMC, TJO and others (above) if we don’t get promoted in 24/25, Butler will have failed, and should expect the boot, right? No two ways about it, no question of stats, goals, unlucky penalties, or excuses about cash. It’s the “cruel reality of pro football”, and he will have to go, right??

Seeing as i’ve just pulled the list up, did these managers fail or succeed?

Robins – Yes in keeping us in L1.No in Driving us forward. YES
Alexander – Yes in getting us to the play offs. No in getting us up. NO
Daws – Bit short to say. But he got us to the play offs so YES.
Dawson – Like Daws short spell and it wasn’t great so NO.
McCall – Sorted the defence out, got us winning games. One of the worst decisions we’ve ever made to sack him. YES
Dawson(again) – Got us relegated enough said. NO
Hurst – Sent us nearer the relegation places than the promotion ones. Bored everyone to death. NO
Cox – Saved us from relegation with a crap budget. but was in charge for the Harrogate debacle. YES, but only just.
Hill – We were a shambles off the pitch but he didn’t do much to change it. NO
Dean – Open chequebook, couldn’t save us from relegation, couldn’t get us promoted. NO
