I love how someone on that thread reckons SOD will be the voice on the touchline because he was nicknamed Noisy. Not seen the irony in the name have they.

Hi Janso,

Nice to hear from you and yes you are right I will be following Sean's career wherever he goes.

Its no secret I hold the him in the highest regard.

The best manager I have ever seen at Donny.

If you recall Sean helped Eddy Howe when he first took the managers job at Bournemouth and it proved successful at the time.

So cheer-up Janson life is too short to be all twisted and bitter.

if my comments offend you in any way do me a favour and just  pass me by, its not my intention.

I am just a very old Donny supporter, now in his twilight years, who wanted to play for Donny in his youth but failed!

Have a nice Christmas Janso.

Why?
Stocky may well have been a great player for us but he's certainly not pulling up any trees in the conference as manager!

I think judging players is different to judging managers. Clearly players have their level & are rightly judged as such.
Managers? Is a manager who's done alright or not fit to manage at a higher or lower level? So many different factors imo, likewise with club/international comparisons.
Certain managers fit Certain jobs, Southgate...

Luck.

Luck is a major, major factor.. We can all think of previously unsuccesful managers who get another job and shine, And the obverse too. In fact that is so damn common it makes the point all by itself.

Brian Stock sacked today. SO'D's comeback might be a very short lived one.
