Agree Case had little, Sami had it all. Just never forget him blanking the fans at Burton in the cup, thankfully he went of his own accord or I think we may have got relegatedThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

But Hinsh had nothing to work with, he wasn't helped that Bobby got injured in his second or third game in charge but the fact remains his resources were certainly not the calibre that Sami had at his disposal.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Difficult to say who was the worst - by definition, a lot of our managers have been unsuccessful over the years. So, not including managers from the Withdean and Gillingham years on the grounds that they had their hands tied behind their backs anyway, my four nominations would be:
Clough, for the reasons stated by the OP;
Sami - play-offs to near relegation in 6 months;
Melia - an absolute clown; never mind the cup final, that squad was good enough to stay up, but Melia took them straight down;
George Curtis; just awful!
I want to say Adams but he got us promoted, despite how piss poor the second run was. And he was at least compensated that Russell Slade kept the team up.
Sami is clearly not cut out for managing but he at least secured some wins, and was replaced by Hughton not long after he made any longer lasting damage.
I'd have to say Clough, because he thought he was too good for Brighton and treated the club like dirt before he went off to Leeds. On top of that 0 wins and some crushing defeats
For Sussex will be Sussex,
And Sussex won't be druv!
Spot on for recent times, but Clough and (rather unjustly) Case must also be contenders.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Think it's unfair on Hinsh, practically no notice, a squad that was in Division 3 18 months earlier against some massive clubs with no budget and resources.

They won the last 3rd of the match 2-1, shame about losing the first 2/3rds 6-0This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote![]()
The only thing you can say about Sami was the Little Sam DEBACLE leaving him with NO No.2 but looking at how Lee is doing up the road maybe it would have been WORSE with him HERE
He also managed to get sent to the stands (escorted by the POLICE after refusing to go) and had a FRACAS with a fan.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
