Juju Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Largely due to alphabeticial preference, and pending the late kickoff, we are top of the Prem. I would post a screenshot,b ut frankly I can't be bothered. But, when was the last time this happened? Under John Gregory? Does this make Alex McLeish the most successful manager in 20 odd years?

NowDoINotLikeThat Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 lol If rmber correctly under John Gregory wasn't there a period were we where top of the Prem for months ? I seem to rmber Fergie saying we were genuine title contenders when Gregory was in charge at some stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
