You've just answered my post thanks. Both say (I believe) that he has used the players he has had to play good football and have some success but are critical of how he acquires his players. So I know now how you define a good manager. Ironic isn't it how we admired him when he was ousted from Morecambe after his illness?

Where was I critical of how he acquired his players?

Point that part of my post out please.

i think at Morecambe he was able to bring a few players through the ranks, and sign some half decent guys. At FGR with many of the youngsters preferring other hobbies such as stamp collecting and window licking, then obviously he is going to bring in some more talented people he knows (ie Morecambe part timers). Harvey has done a good job wherever he has been. With the wage budget cut, perhaps Harvey couldn’t be bothered with the task of keeping an over hyped club in this league. And to be perfectly frank, who could blame him?

Okay critical of HOW he acquired them maybe a misinterpretation of your post.

lets just be pleased that the club has no manager 7 days before the start of the season and the officials will be dealing with legal stuff.  It's all good for The Alty.

COME ON ALTY
COME ON ALTY
COME ON ALTY

It is indeed ironic how we felt sorry for JH when morecambe ousted him.....we felt the man deserved a bit of loyalty....perhaps we were wrong though as he has not shown much loyalty when the budget was cut at FGR has he?...but maybe the man actually had moral fibre incompatible with FGR and was not happy he had to keep a match fixer on the budget? In which case he should be applauded we may never know.

Still I'm just pleased FGR find themselves in a mess at the beginning of the season and predict the AGM cup will have an extra dirty tricks edge to it this season....which can only be for the good of the game...so Jim should be applauded for that I reckon.

Putting managerial ability and budgets aside, from what I have heard , Jim Harvey is a good footballing man when contrasted with the behaviour of arrogant idiots like Evans, Westley etc

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

Cult,
Congrats on reaching 1500 "Goodwins".
