I admire Warne’s dignity and morals. I have to admit it would be funny to see Evans having a last dig at Peterborough and Sunderland with a pink champagne quote.

Got to be Ronnie (so far) and Breck quite unbelievable what they achieved.
Paul Hurst next Millers manager after Warney goes to Norwich with all his staff
IF Warne was to go which I highly doubt, as their Manager signed a big contract this season, then I would like to see Neil Warnock back at the NYS. Absolute shed loads of experience in the Championship and a great personality which will be needed to follow in what Warne would leave behind.
Ronnie for me. We were rock bottom when he arrived. Without him I could see us in no-league. Kept us in the second tier for a few years. Hopefully Warney will eclipse him.
Agree with the majority here..Ronnie...so far.
Let's see how we fair next season though because I genuinely feel we will hold our own now.
What sticks out for me this past year is the togetherness within the club..and that includes the manager and his staff..TS ..the club staff in all departments and finally and most importantly the fans.
But a large part of that credit goes to Warner for bringing together the RUFC family..hopefully we are all on the same hymn sheet now..we've been through some bad times but hopefully this is the start of something special.
1.Ronnie..so far.
2.Warney.. but watch this space.
3.Evans..what a side..but never took to the man.
Evans on achievements. Parachute payments weren't there when Ronnie managed us in the championship. Warney will have to keep us in the championship to be considered along side those two.
I'm going to go for PW as I think it's a lot harder in the cship now than in Ronnie,s era with parachute payments and other Chairmen spending obscene amounts of money on salaries
So the gulf between RUFC,s budget and the rest is much wider these days so to come so close last season and give so many clubs a very difficult game at the nys is impressive. Both Sheffield clubs were battered
Also in PW,s favour over SE is that he's the darling of the media and much admired by other managers. He's also setting the trend on new ideas and management techniques. For example the sleep geek role was featured on the national news
BBC breakfast decided to feature us and our stadium on breakfast tv during the decisions on how the season was to be complete
Five live said he,s their favourite person to interview
There's loads of examples of this and it's all happened in PW.,s tenure.
He's taken the standing of the club up to a whole new level. An unprecedented level.
Considering the social problems that the twin has had this is exactly what we needed.
He just needs to keep us up there and it will be nailed on for me

I'm pleased Norwich have given their Manager an extended contract as it seems as though they have been outplaying a lot of teams at Carrow road and not getting the points they deserve. It seems to mirror our last season in the cship.
Refreshing they haven't just dumped him
Good for us too but I would think Delia and Co will be monitoring PW,s progress even more closely with a view to 3-4 seasons in the future.
Hopefully we might be able to get a loan or two again this summer
Paul Warne is my choice, then King Ronnie and Stevie Evans third. PW an up-and-coming manager, ridiculed when TS appointed him, classed as just a " fitness coach. " ( everyone has to start somewhere
Critisised when he appointed a pal as assistant ( RB )
Now it's come full circle albeit a fortunate promotion. Do hope TS sticks with PW even if we end up back in League 1. All to play for, let's hope for a good season in the Championship.
I take the general view about Ronnie, fair enough. I was having an extended leave from football at that time due to being chased round the town centre too many times by opposing fans.
What ever Paul goes on to achieve on the field - and don't get me wrong, i am, and always have been a huge fan of his. He does have one or two blind spots, which i hope to see develop in the coming season. One thing that shouldn't be overlooked though is what he has build off the field.
His approach to recruitment is superb.
His team building philosophies are as good as i have ever seen in any organisation
His ethics and values - even when things are not going well.
His relationship with the clubs management is not a coincidence
His medium to long term strategy for RUFC is sound.
All in all, this next season will be be a seminal season for Paul as i sense his strategic planning for a proper run at the championship will also benefit from superb financial management this club has taken under TS.
