A crying shame that many on here cannot show the kind of dignified class that I am sure would have characterised your reaction had “Clark’s Promotion” actually been a “Grayson Gubbing”. Fine margins indeed Que sera sera, everyone is happy now :celebrate:

No need to drag up old threads like this. Its all hindsight and fine margins between those who were right and wrong. ( having said that, Hoyles decision was justified when we got past MKDons IMO )
Pretty sure this thread would have cropped up in one of the many 'told you so' threads had we not gone up though!

Rather than having a in direct swing at Grayson can't you and the rest of the Clarkites admit "we were wrong, Grayson is a better manager than we had and Deano got it spot on" Then every one can move on

It was Clark's team- he bought the players. But it took a better manager than Clark is to take it up. Thats how I'll always remember that promotion side.

This forum should be viewed as a bit of fun and if the guy wants to unearth an old gem then it's all good.. (although I do recall being slated by the self same guy for doing something similar to him once upon a time) such is life.... We are all a bit bored now as jubilee is a waste of space and we want the players to come back off holidays so we can start bidding for em

surley that just shows how good a manager grayson is? or lucky Lucky to have those players ? Lucky to have one of the best strikers outside the prem ? Lucky to have Johnson back from injury ? Lucky to be up against a side depleted by prison and suspension ? Lucky Bennett got injured ? Or lucky to have gone within a post width of ballsing it all up ? What is this luck you refer to ?

So 3 pipe, do you think we were going forwards under Clark as opposed to backwards? Do you think Clark would have guided us to automatic promotion? Do you think Clark would have had the bottle to guide us through the playoffs at the 3rd time of asking? Most importantly, do you think Clark should have committed to the club and Dean Hoyle during the Leicester and Leeds speculation?

I think we would have finished the season with more points under LC than we did under SG. But I also feel we probably wouldn't have won the playoffs under LC.
But when all is said and done, the biggest turning point this season that made promotion achievable, wasn't the sacking of LC, it was made by a court in Wales.
IMO with Ched Evans Sheff U would have gained automatic and Wednesday would have sailed through the playoffs, they were far too strong for any other playoff contender.
One thing is for sure SG is a luckier manager than LC for I believe the stars aligned in such a fashion that made our promotion possible.
In the past 2 seasons things have worked against us but this season in the end it all fell into place.
SG now has the increased budget to work with and assemble his squad but now is far too early to judge his managerial reign but after some dodgy early selections he has come out of it with an enhanced reputation due to the fine margins of a penalty shootout.
I hope for long and sustained success with SG at the helm

I thought we were unlucky not to win the game in normal time, then even more unlucky not to win it in injury time. The width of a post got us some luck in the pens, but not before it had got them some luck in the 2nd half.
Ched Evans getting sent down and Johnson getting fit were 2 strokes of luck. The biggest stroke of luck though IMO was having an owner brave enough to change managers at such a late stage, as I don't think we'd have got past MK Dons if he hadn't.
