    Scarborough went out of existence when he was manager!

    Should add in fairness that it wasn't all (or at all) his fault!

    There have been plenty of comments about the "crap squad" he left us with being the reason we got relegated....

    But you cant say he "royally cocked it up". Everyone knows he was a very successful manager for Charlton.

    I don't blame him at all and consider him the greatest manager we have ever had.

    Not everyone would agree though and plenty say (not me) it was Curbs fault rather than Dowie, Reed or Pardew that we went down. If I could be bothered to search I could find threads and posts saying as much.

    Relegation has to come into the category of royal cock up.

    If Curbs was sacked tomorrow by West Ham would anyone want him back as manager at the Valley for next season to replace Pardew?

    Curbs on arriving late for training: "Well I thought we'd prepared well for the journey, but oohaah's car never really got going."

    PS: Pardew watch: He was at Sparrow's Lane this morning. Couldn't see any brown envelopes, so may not be signing related....
