[Mrs Warbouys]

Had his budget cut by 2/3's, always been lorded as great manager, and despite all his work developing young players,he's always had a large war chest to work with when producing good sides,looks like he's noy up to the task when the big budget isnt available.Fgr will struggle without him,and may return to relegation strugglers from the false position theyve held in recent seasons

Thats made my day.

I only hope that Coiln Peakes position is not in any danger.

It's amazing how "great managers" like Mark Wright and Jim HArvey lose interest when there's no wonga left to fund them.

Anyone can be a good manager with a blank chequebook (with the possible exception of Mark Hughes)

Oh dear,what a shame.Thats another club to add to the relegation mix

[TheCultOfIanTunnacliffe]

Jim Harvey was so nearly appointed as Alty's manager back in 1992.

[Jezza]

hopefully this is the season we will finally see the back of this progressive club.....things obviously not going swimmingly with their leisure and fitness centre which was supposed to be self financing for the club...like worksop's clubhouse.

A small club run by small minded people. Their Meccano set stadium won't be missed if we're lucky enough to wave goodbye to them come May.

A small club run by small minded people.

The same small minded people that picked the club up in the 90's when it was dying on its own feet in the Southern League and have turned it in to a club that has been competing in a national league below the Football League for what will now be 12 seasons?

If we leave the Club out of it for a minute can I ask how you would define a good manager?

If it's purely down to the way a manager utilises the resources (players) they have then he is indeed a good manager as Morecambe and Forest Green, love em or (more likely) hate em have been fairly successful and played what is generally considered 'good' football

If it incorporates recruitment then maybe less so

[Mick]

Just a guess......but I wonder if this has anything to do with Andrew Mangan and what to do with him while he sits out half the season checking his race card

[York Alty]

nice spot Mick.  hmmmmmmmm

How can that be Phil? most of the players he has used haven't come up through FGR's ranks, Stonehouse, Fowler, Mangan, Fleetwood?, Tonkin, the Morecambe lot (Dodgson, Rigoglioso, Robinson, Lloyd etc)?

I don't see how this has any relevance whatsoever to Jim Harvey's stint as Forest Green's manager.

He has a proven track record for doing quite well when given a lot of resources to work with. He has been given limited resources at Forest Green and jacked it in.

It is therefore clear proof of his inability to work with limited resources.
