Gained - how much the manager's coach rating changed over their rated matches in October 2009. Each result is weighed against the opponent and the venue, so a draw away at a stronger side can count for more than a home win against a weaker one. Minimum 3 rated matches; a month is a handful of games, so read it as form, not a verdict. Club - their last club in the month. Coach rating - their rank in the week that published this table (Week 45, 2009, games up to Sun 1 Nov). Only managers ranked at the month's end (30+ rated matches) are listed. The table closed with Week 45, 2009 and never changes.

Descriptive, not predictive. The coach rating measures what a manager's teams did against what was expected of them. It doesn't forecast results. How the rating works ›
