    Between Garner, Holden and Appleton, they have moved on and now ended up with relatively decent jobs and probably on good money, certainly with Holden.

    Is it us and how we handle managers or did they all get lucky?

    Am not having this "with the right type of players" garbage. You could say that about most managers.

    None of them are managers though.

    Ghana? Sounds like about his level. Garner gone to Ghana, where after a short while he will probably be a gawner. 

    We've had some shite managers in recent times but this bloke has to be right up there. "Garner-ball" anyone?
    I wouldn't call him 'shite' tbh. I think his ambition is such that it'd require a LOT of initial patience. I could actually see him being a really good manager if given a couple of years anywhere. The trouble is that such patience is almost never afforded. He had tactical ideas and it was clear sometimes that with the right players he'd have us playing some amazing stuff. But he never did have the right players. Not as much as poor Adkins was, but he was seriously let down by the bunch of wasters at his disposal 

    Think Garner was on a hiding to nothing too given TS was trying to dial back the investment etc and it was all free transfers and cheap loans.

    Come and play a different style of football with players than can't do it, oh and I'm not giving you any budget to sign any players who can....

    That said, I agree that he seems best suited to coaching not management.

    Garner’s assistant manager that didn’t come with him has got Crawley promoted with, effectively, a group of non league players.

    Then had the spine of his team gutted by L1 and L2 teams with bigger budgetsand still has two wins from two in League One.

    Perhaps the assistant manager was the mastermind all along…
