Our readers have had their say each time a new SAFC manager is appointed.

And these fans had plenty to tell us in 2006, 2008 and 2009.

You might know some of them. Have a look at these Echo archive photos and tell us more.

Our thanks to them all for voicing their opinions on new managers of the past.
