Hall Of Fame
After all he has achieved in his career it is only natural that Cheggers be up there with the greats. He is the best English manager of all time and the most succesfull in Italian football. He also is the 3rd Greatest European manager ever and Keith "Cheggers" Chegwin is now known as the 3rd Greatest manager ever period. Only Carlo Ancelotti and the great Sir Alex Ferguson have achieved more in the game we call football.

Just a little funny I thought. The unemployed manager, called BaM, has been offered the Portsmouth job even though he has no experience and has never shown any interest in a job for 34 years. :p

So the leaderboards I'm thinnking of are:
Most Games Played
Highest Win Ratio
Most Trophies (cups+leagues or two seperate ones?)
Highest Number of Awards
Biggest Net value of Transfers
Overall leaderboard (takes your average position over other leaderboard to discover best all-round manager)


How are they? If you have some other ideas just say and I'll see if I can include them ;)

To give most/all are participants time to be online and have a look at the suggested leaderboards I will wait until tomorrow evening to start posting them :)
