Bulut - How does he compare?
Sun Feb 11, 2024 9:35 pm
Since the start of the year, we all know that the football hasn't been very good, at times awful.
Understandably fans are growing frustrated by Bulut and his tactics.
What I thought was interesting however is the win % and how he statistically compares to other managers we have had, especially of late.
His current win % after the loss to Preston, sits at 40%, which in the last 10 years, is second to Warnock who had a 40.97% - so is he really that bad?
Before that, to find a 40% win rate you need to look all the way back to Malky and Dave Jones.
Bare in mind that Bulut took over with an embargo, lots of deadwood, FFP problems, and essentially a league one squad.
It could be a lot worse. We could have Paul Trollope still.

Compared to the other managers mentioned as for transfer fees paid he's had feck compared to them but that don't even get a thought tbh.
Also alot of fans have only ever known championship football and above so don't know anything different bar chasing the supposed prem dream. Although that's the way it is so for them they react differently to what others do and think. But we all differ

Going into the season, I didn’t expect top six or anything like that. I was happy with just surviving.
But we were playing football that was good to watch earlier in the season and that hasn’t been the case recently. It’s been awful to watch at quite a lot of times.
If we went back to our style earlier in the season, I think most fans would support that.
That said, when things weren’t going well with Warnock the football was even worse. People like to look at his reign with rose tinted glasses. There’s a reason that he doesn’t stay anywhere for too long. Look at how we did in his final few games and look at the poor squad he left us.
Others have been saying it, but the way we played under Dave Jones was brilliant. He should have got us promoted but it was just great to watch.
There’s not enough energy in this team to play like that but I do hope that we start to move back towards the style we were playing earlier in the season.
