I would consign "Dickinsonesque" to the same bin I'd put "the new Frankel" or the new whatever in.

It's lazy, limited, media cliche, beloved of those (of which there are all too many) incapable of thinking outside their own narrow frame of reference.

I'd say it was "Mullinsesque" for Mullins is the bloke's name.

There will always be cycles of dominance in any sphere and I'd say that, like making that first million, subsequent success becomes easier.

Alex Ferguson's greatest achievement might have been to break the Old Firm stranglehold with Aberdeen - at Old Trafford he had a rather bigger player budget.

You could say that Aidan O'Brien achieved most in terms of results relative to resources when he trained Istabraq.

And yes, Mullins operates from a position of great strength nowadays too.

But they all had to get there in the first place to get the budget.
