The "real" reason Reid should be sacked

[smoker]

arguments about the quality of the football, confidence, ALS, the fans, money available aside:

Peter Reid's last 38 competetive games at Sunderland:
LDLDWLLDLWLWDLWWLDLLDLLWL LWLDLWLLLDDDL
8 wins, 10 draws, 20 defeats

Walter Smith's last 38 competetive games at Everton:
WLDWDWLDLLWDWLDDDWLWLLLLL WWDWDLLDDWDLL
10 wins, 12 draws, 16 defeats

Bryan Robson's last 38 competetive games at Middlesbrough (pre Venables):
LDLLLWDDWDWWLLDWDDWWDLDLD WDWWLLLLLLLDL
10 wins, 12 draws, 16 defeats

Ruud Gullit's last 38 competetive games at Newcastle:
DLWDDWLLWLDWWWDWLLDWWLLWD WLDDDLDLLLLDL
11 wins, 12 draws, 15 defeats

Take any selection of results, 25, 10 etc and Reid still looks bad compared to at least one other person on that list.

Gullit and Robson arguably spent more than Reid, but Smith spent far less.

How much longer shall we give him anyone?

as I`ve already said managers should be judged on results first and foremost and as you`ve pointed out reids (38 is more than enough to be judged)is piss poor to say the least.

[Teejay]

3 wins in 22 games? Would ANY other manager in the top flight have gotten away with that? People talk about him getting a second chance - I think he's had his second chance.

You can't argue with those stats. Pretty damning I would say! :(

be careful lads,you may get jumped on by the Reid in bandwagon. It must be getting hard for them to stick up for him now..............

I'd love to see our home form in the past 20 games.

Looking at those stats says everything, let's not forget our wins in their are against Bolton 1-0, Leicester 2-1 and some bugger else I can't remember!

wasnt it bolton away 2-0 aswell??

Actually in the time he was there Smith probably spent as much, as he paid a helluva lot out - Dacourt £4.5m, Watson £3m, Pistone £3.5m, Matterazzi £3m, Simonsen £2.2m, Bakayoko £4.5m, Alexandersson £2m, Gemmill, Pembridge £1m, Naysmith £2m, Radzinski £2.5m, Nyarko £4m, Linderoth £2m and many more i can't remember, though he did recoup a lot.
