Eddie Hitler Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Garry Thompson. Similar to Stuart Pearce / Roy Keane in being all fire, aggression and passion whilst being utterly inept as a manager. Had his short managerial career not started and effectively ended at Rovers then I would have been blissfully unaware of him. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garry_Thompson_(footballer,_born_1959) I recall a fanzine parody of his usual after match rant at the time which something like this: That's what I want to see, the guys fought for everything, they had pride, passion they made me proud out there today. What do you mean "we lost"? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may have been a good coach but the question was manager and my flakey memory of him in that role was just the occasional good season, loads of clubs he never seemed to stay long at and the main, slightly tongue in cheek, reason was to pick one of the many shambolic ex Gas managers.
