    Lawrie McMenemy

    "best known for his spell as manager of Southampton Football Club. Lawrie McMenemy is rated in the Guinness Book of Records as one of the twenty most successful managers in post-war English football."
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrie_McMenemy

    He's well past his best and totally undeserving of a salary of the nature on offer. He would not be considered by any other country as national team boss.

    Surely he ticks all the boxes.......

    Lawrie Mackemenemy is the Devil!! Nobody talks about his spell at Sunderland. When he was the highest paid manager in Britain, given pot loads of money & f*ck it up! Then p*ssed of before the end of the season before we got relagated to the old Third Div, to 'save his reputation'. Better of with Stan!! Lawrie belongs in the Guinness Book of Records with all the other freaks!!

    And they nearly did.
