Post War Top Flight League Performance By Manager
Written by Dan on August 16, 2010
I finally got round to compiling manager performance data going back a wee bit further than 1992. 1946 to be precise; the first league season after World War II.
There’s very little narrative required, but I should explain the data is limited to the top flight only, seasons in the old Divisions Two and Three were excluded. All matches were recalculated on a basis of three points for a win. A handful of games without a permanent manager are segregated at the foot of the table. The table is sorted by percentage of the available points the manager obtained.
