Well, there use to be a coach called Venables.
He stuffed us up in a game once against Iran

What defines a bad coach?

Yes, even I could do better

That's the one.

That's the one.

That's a bus, a coach has a toilet

Venables never lost a game in that World Cup qualifying series. In his 24 games as coach he helped Australia achieve a top 30 FIFA world ranking, which before then had never seen the Socceroos able to crack the top 50.

Just for the record, I remember his comment when asked why he didn't shut the game down " we are not good enough"

yes...exactly what I was thinking about Venables

Won leagues and cups in many other countries. Got his nation to the semi final in 96 but he's shit because australia didn't qualify?

Have you considered that he did bloody well to even get close?

[MegaBonus]

doesn't make him the best coach Australia has ever had....

bottled in when it mattered most!!!! selections and tactics are his responsibility and against Iran he faaaaarked up!

Don't know why you're continuing....he failed on both occasions.....

Which coach has been successful with australia then? Was it Venables fault all the other years you were shit?

[MegaBonus]

i guess any coach that achieved what he was trying to.....qualify for the WC (with a less talented team) or any coach that lead them to a FIFA Championship

So, it's only about that qualification. Only twice in your history have you qualified through the route that Venables had to take. So many variables to compare through that route as well. My mum could coach australia to a world cup now that they decided they were asian and took the easy route.

Venables got a very poor australia side within a whisker of a world cup, something only one person had ever done before. Yet, it's all his fault. He's crap

thanks for confirming that Venables is not Australia's best coach....since 1 other person achieved what he couldn't.....

end of....

Did he do it with the same team at the same time? If not, then you are making a rather silly point.
