I loved Don Mackay's era at the club - but I think this bit is extremely harsh on Sacko.
They were quite different as managers. Saxton was a terrific man-manager, better than Mackay, whereas Don had a great eye for a player. Don also got a cash injection just when he needed it, when things were going a little stale. As someone has already stated, Rovers were skint throughout Sacko's tenure.
I think Don and Bobby should be held in similar esteem and without those two (and Howard Kendall before them) we would never have been in a position to attract Sir Kenneth Matheson Dalglish to the Rovers.
Its also worth mentioning that they are both lovely blokes who retain a deep affection for our club.
