I would rather define manager eras in a way of bands or artists , starting from my era .
sir steve - slade , shouty and stompy and you get what you see
alan smith - elvis Presley,all flashy stuff but no substance
dave basset - status quo , head down no frills
steve bruce - the velvet underground ,brilliant and slipped under the radar then got noticed and it all went wrong
trevor francis - coldplay , like their songs all games seemed to melt into one
iain dowie - stone roses , great first album but couldn't quite manage making a good second album
peter taylor - the bluetones , great first single then it all sounded the same
neil Warnock - the bonzo dog doodah band , who the fcuk knew what was going on

paul hart - pulp , filled in when the stone roses blew out Glastonbury and did a great job
George burley - the yardbirds , debutted wilf as the yardbirds did jimmy page
dougie freedman - the beatles , the beatles found drugs and got brilliant , dougie got told to play good football by the owners in a car park and got brilliant and then it all ended in acrimony
ian Holloway - the wurzels , just because of his accent
tony pulis - oasis , very lumpen and predictable but popular and got results but fell apart with recriminations
alan Pardew - the clash , a three pronged attack ,for strummer,jones,simenon , read wilf , benteke, townsend

ive missed a few caretakers here and there before the pedants start

I was thinking Tony Pulis was more like Rolf Harris. Whilst the music wasn't too good, he did know how to draw.

unlike rolf though , pulis didn't use the youngsters in the squad

Bishops walk in Shirley, Croydon.

Never made a penny working in this private road.
Tight,penny chiselling Kuntz.

Has now gone on my banned list along with New Addo , Purley & coulsdon.

You dont get rich enough to live in Bishops Walk by giving it away.
