Our former manager brings his Oldham Athletic team to town this coming Tuesday. Given the fact he got us a promotion but never had the opportunity to celebrate this achievement with the fans will hopefully not be forgotten by our supporters and I for one hope he will get a decent reception when he takes his place in the dugout.
I know his football was awful at times, but let's give him the thanks (before the game, not during) he surely deserves.
Do others think the same? (Even some that didn't like his playing style). I will be interested to hear what people think.

He didn't strike me as someone who was particularly keen to engage with the supporters. I wouldn't boo him.

I didn't like his playing style or conversational abilities but I think it only right that he is given a warm welcome before the game.

Well from the large number of responses I take it he won't be getting a decent reception. A bit of a shame for one of the few managers in history to get us a promotion.

Shaun McWilliams also gave him that credit in yesterday's interview.

Do Curle and Hasselbaink get to claim they didn't get a relegation on their CV's from their time with us ?

I might extend a polite applause for a brief moment despite being far from his biggest fan during his time. I was happy enough to celebrate round his car after Wembley after all.

Yes he does. Then hopefully during the game "Curly, Curly what's the score"

Certainly not our best manage but an honest servant to the club during his tenure - yes a brief round of applause would be a good response.

A polite round of applause and then nothing but abuse every time they launch it . Centre halves have to be strong and win every second ball . If you do that he has no answer .

Yes, because we now play tippy-tappy football right . I wasn't a fan of his way of playing and prefer JB's brand, but there are still a fair number of long balls mixed in. Anyway, overall I think KC did a decent job for us, and agree that he deserves a round of applause before kick-off.

A mixture of styles is always what is required and the football we play now is infinitely better than Curle’s caveman approach from 1990 . Amazed he is still in employment .
