  • Big Ron Manager is a television documentary series based on Ron Atkinson's efforts as a troubleshooter at the English football club Peterborough United, at the time playing in Football League Two. The series was screened on Sky TV in 2006.
    Originally, the show was going to feature Swindon Town and Sky spent around four weeks filming there before being asked to leave by the Swindon management. Peterborough United received a fee of around £100,000 from Sky TV for access to the changing rooms and for Ron Atkinson to assist the rookie manager Steve Bleasdale. Bleasdale was unhappy at Atkinson's involvement in the changing room and subsequently banned him and the cameras from the changing rooms on matchdays. However, later in the series Bleasdale relented after being overruled by Chairman Barry Fry.
    Some scenes caused quite a stir in Peterborough when the show was aired, including a dressing room brawl between Mark Arber and Paul Carden and Bleasdale rowing with youngsters Sean St Ledger and Adam Fry.
    St Ledger joked about suing Sky TV, after claiming the programme showed him as the team's bad boy, which he denied. The media alighted on this, and he was later forced to clarify that the statement was in fact, a joke.
    There were several instances during the filming of Atkinson upsetting Bleasdale:
    Although the club were short of funds, he persuaded Barry Fry to hire a goalkeeping coach in Tony Godden
    Suggesting during an injury crisis to go for Queens Park Rangers striker Stefan Moore on loan. However Bleasdale overruled Atkinson and instead snapped up Lloyd Opara on a free transfer from a local team.
    In April 2006, Bleasdale walked out of Peterborough United only 70 minutes before a game against Macclesfield. It was later reported that this was due to clashes with Atkinson. Chairman Barry Fry put himself in charge for the final two games of the season.
    Big Ron Manager was regarded as a low point in the fortunes of Peterborough United. However, it proved the catalyst for future revival. Property businessman Darragh MacAnthony-who previously had no connection with the club-watched the show on television and a few months purchased the club and later became chairman. Under MacAthony's investment and his appointment of Darren Ferguson as the club's manager in 2007, Peterborough gained promotion to League One in 2008 and then to the Championship in 2009.

    Bleo & Ron explaining their tactics is like watching chuckle brothers me to you you to me.

    Bleos body language with Ron discussing tactics says "I'm dying to punch you".
    Barry Fry's language at the players meeting is hilarious, fackin' this and fackin' that.
    Barry has missed his vocation, he should have been a comedian in The Wheeltappers And Shunters Club Oop North.
    The funniest man in football ever, without ever meaning to be.
    Add to that Big Ron's combover and Danny Crows bad guts and you've got classic entertainment.
    When Bleo called the referee a knobhead I laughed out loud.

    Strangely Bleo has some top coaching qualifications. Just shows you that they mean FA really.

    • @kevinhoughton9134
      @kevinhoughton9134 Před 4 lety +2

      Not qualifications that denote success alone, attitude and people skills are a massive %.

    • @GarethT902
      @GarethT902 Před rokem +2

      Had qualifications but zero tactical nouse and a man management style that was just crap.

    There's nothing like battling balls. And the "collective team" comment is inspired. Fuck me, Ron knows his stuff.

    I really dont think you can give Bleo too much shit. His players were never bothered about winning games, some of them just wanted to act like they were top dog.

    Like him or not Big Ron knows his football inside out. They would have been better giving him the job for the last 10 games. He wouldn't have taken any crap from those players

      They would have respected a man who once managed Man Utd and won a number of major trophies.

    Feel for bleo must have been hard to be given an opportunity like this to have to listen to someone else when your meant to be in charge. This show probably killed his career and any future chances of managing mid tier teams again instead he had to manage teams like Bangor. Shame he seemed so passionate

    • @GarethT902
      @GarethT902 Před rokem +1

      Passionate yes but had no man management and his tactics were all over the place.

    Scouse effing and jeffing....... he'll need a new larynx way he he shouts. It loses its effect if overused.
