It's really not hard to say he was the worst manager we've had. He showed up, failed to use the World Cup to prepare his side and got us playing the worst football I've seen in the last ten years and I include Mark Hughes, the tail end of Ralph and Selles in that. His signings in January were panic buys that we'll be paying for for years. He lost the dressing room in record time. There was no light at the end of the tunnel.
Martin has, for his faults, taken a team that was broken and in the process of being broken up and played some decent stuff. Sure, he's also made some bizarre decisions but seriously show me a football manager that doesn't make bizarre decisions. I don't see Jones getting the results we've seen this season.
