    Think I'm in pole position at the minute, cant see Mac leaving Dortmund, or the Juve manager jumping ship ;)

    Teamshadowclan is Spurs, and has put in a lot of time there, but Barca is truly a step up. Same could be said for Liverpool.
    In any case, hope they are happy where they are! :)

    EDIT - PSG also ahead of me in rankings....

    No games tomorrow, key thing about management is to know your schedule.

    Key thing about management is not losing games.
    Which evidently, you struggle with.

    this time 48 hours you'll be behind Rangers and 22 points off the top.

    Sure it'll have to be done according to manager rankings, or new players....
    Let's not jump the gun though however! Still quite a bit of time for me to go back to Alkmaar with my tail between my legs! :D

    I know it does not matter right now with a higher ranking manager having his hat in the ring,

    But what happens in the future if there are two club managers level in the rankings as is the case with 7th at the moment,

    Does it go on the lowest divison manager, but both could be in the same division?

    Do they play a friendly with winner taking all?

    Do we let it go to the next match day and see if they are split in the rankings after it?

    As I said it does not matter at the moment, but best setting it out now before it ever happens?

    Nope, no movement for me.
    So you'll just have to watch me walking away with the league while you barely hang on to midtable obscurity.
    Your tactics are like something an 8 year old would come up with. With the squad you have the fact that you aren't higher up the table is laughable.

    Old tired players not responding to a clueless manager I guess.

    You clearly don't know how rankings work, gosson.

    It's funny the manager rankings point out that you should have done better with squad you have and yes my players aren't getting any luck but this will change Thursday.

    How could I possibly have done better than being 13 points clear at the top (15 from 3rd place), 22 games unbeaten and having the best goal difference (13 goals higher than the next best) as well as the most goals and the tightest defence in the league?

    Unless you mean in the cups, in which I played my second string team (mostly from my youth team) because the league is my priority. Only small clubs care about cups, because they know they haven't a hope of winning the league.

    I've said since pre-season that my aim was to win the league, I'm certainly meeting that aim.

    So, really, I think it's you who's clearly struggling.

    Fergie ain't ranked lower than Rafa in manager rankings fact you get points for managing weak sides against strong ones, even if you get promoted you'll fall as fast as you rose fact.

    Fergies was ahead of Rafa in the league though.

    And Rafa was the one who constantly felt the need to have a go at Fergie, bit like yourself.

    And constantly you keep losing and hanging out in the middle of the table.

    While me and my boys are already looking towards next season in Division 3.

    Jambo, if I was you I'd consider ditching Celtic and taking the CSKA job, that way atleast you will have a half decent squad and you might be able to get them to the play-off spots, otherwise you will be falling down that table for the rest of the season with your group of moulden-oldies and talentless hacks.
