Simple, answer the question, vote on the poll and state a reason.

I'm voting foir Sir Brian Clough, as a player he still holds records for his incredable goal scoring ability, as a manager at Forest and Darby he took 2 small time clubs and took them to the hight of Europe and England. Could there be anyone who did more.?

Wot? No Terry Venables? or Dario Gradi?

Guus Hiddink or Otto Rehhagel.

Sepp Herberger
Helmut Schoen
Franz Beckenbauer
and Juergen Kliensmann - Trainer of the next World Champion ;)

I need to get more aquanted with sports....

Bill Struth or Jock Wallace

Venables and Gardi are both good manages, but near the names above? never.

Jock McHale. He led Collingwood to four consecutive premierships.

Billy Bob Thornton...well he played one.

No Fagan or Shankly? Tut tut.
Paisley. Simple. Yes, Clough took a couple of teams to the championship and the European Cup, but Paisley's Liverpool dominated (and I mean dominated) European football for a decade.
Chapman's won god knows how many championships with Huddersfield and Arsenal, and would probably have won the European Cup with at least one of those teams if it'd been around back then.

That liverpool guy, Shankly I think his name is.

Alex Ferguson, obviously. Won more trophies at the highest levels then any other manager in history, made Man Utd a dominant force in domestic football, and completed one of the greastest sporting achievements ever in the Treble.

I am the greatest football manager. In Football Manager 2006 I took Newcastle United to the top of the Premiership in my first season in charge. This is no mean feat with the likes of Robbie Elliot, Lee Clark and Titus Bramble in your squad and only £3 million to spend.

Well if its virtual managers then my five consequative quadruples with Accrington Stanley in LMA 2005 must be a record... (a quad being the Premiership, league and FA cups and the European cup). Admittadly it took twenty seasons to get into the Premiership, but still

Robbie fucking Elliot.

Robbie fucking Elliot.
Should've just brought someone in on free transfer. Bound to be better than Robbie Elliot.
Anyway, on CM4, I took Man City from the first division to European Cup winners in 4 seasons, won 5 consecutive European Cups, plus 7 consecutive league titles, 4 FA Cups, 2 League Cups, 3 world club championships, 4 European super cups, plus won the 2008 European Championships and 2010 World Cup with England.
Then I left and went to Cardiff, in the bottom half of division 3.

Robbie fucking Elliot.
