    Okay so, there are the SMFA Awards which are based solely on statistics and as a result, are not regarded very highly by some (a bit like the Football Writers' Awards!). Then there is the Managers' manager of the season award who is voted for by their fellow managers and is an award much more coveted than the SMFA manager of the season.

    Rather than get everyone to send in nominations etc., I'm just going to draw up a list of nominees for managers to vote on.

    So, who are the nominees for Season 9 Managers' manager of the year award?

    1. Maldjd23 - SSC Napoli
    Division 1 champion ahead of heavy hitters Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, and Barcelona.

    2. tupac_healy - SS Lazio
    Newly promoted to Division 1, the aim was always to avoid a quick return back to D2, so to stay in the title race until the final weeks of the season, and to eventually qualify for the Champions League ahead of Barcelona is a magnificent achievement (even if they were carried to that position by Neymar!)

    3. mackeire - Spartak Moskva
    In such a competitive Division, to reach the playoff final with a team which doesn't seem to have the big stars as many other teams have is a fantastic achievement by the Russian outfit.

    4. Perrin V2 - Flamengo
    Newly promoted to D3, Flamengo wasn't one for waiting around and are heading straight up to D2.




    I'm also going to lock the thread to avoid canvassing in here, make it a sticky and, once the vote ends, add the results to the SMFA Awards sticky thread.


    EDIT : I guess I won't be closing the thread as that closes the poll as well!

    Although newly promoted, the team at Lazio would be expected to finish well. Napoli the clear winner for me

    With some big teams going down almost every year basic survival has to be the main aim every season!!!


    But I agree 100% with the last part, Naps by a mile, got my vote!!

    TBH, it's all fairly trivial after given that the vote is going to be landslide victory for Napoli. :pac:

    Absolutely, so a big team going down can happen but it's not expected. If you were relegated, even though just promoted, it would have been disastrous imo.

    Don't get me wrong, you've built a fantastic team, you ddeserve credit for that.

    You actually had made the shortlist of about six, but I felt it had to be whittled down to a maximum of four as six was too much to put up there and, considering you didn't have much competition for the title in your Division, I left you out.

    To be fair, the cup win nearly had you in the top four. :)

    mmmh, Porto managing to finish outside of the bottom 3 places in D1 for an 8th (some will understand teh importance of that :p) season in a row and yet their manager is overlooked for this beauty pageant ... disgraceful!














    Oh, I voted for Naps btw ... even if he veered of our agreed path of not overdoing it with team upgrades and beating the odds by remaining in the division season after season and went all Claudio Ranieri on that ****.

    That's what you think, I'm the best manager in the League this season...and I had the player of the season as well(Suarez)...and I won 2 cups ..and I came 6th in the League!

    I'll have to vote for the Napoli manager so!

    Voting is now closed.

    Maldjd23 has been declared the Managers' manager of the season by a landslide.

    Congratulations.
