He's been shyte here in a similar time frame as when he took over at Burton and I believe he will remain shyte.
    Well they were outside the top 6 when he joined in November, then he lead them to the title.

    And how do you explain his success the following season, being top of league one when he left?

How is it that he hasn't managed to improve one single player from what I can make out or, get more out of these spineless meatheads since he's arrived? I was really hopeful that JFH would be dynamic and get us playing and maybe even get us on an upward curve... Blimey how wrong could I be as he's been an absolute disaster and the 'style' of football such as it is, is even worse if anything than it was under Ramshackle.... Terrible and just because we somehow managed to snatch a late draw this from what I am hearing is papering over bigger cracks than the San Andreas Fault line...!!
      Good post.. I don't expect much change in the results but I did expect change in the way we play. The 'style of football' is still poor. Want to see JFH get the chance next season but something has to change.
      C'Mon You Supaaaa!!

          As I said, they were already a club on the up and they're still top of the league now having been without Jimmy Floyd Messiahbaink for the last three months. Perhaps you would have us believe he's still managing them and that's why they're still top of the league?

            That alone does not sufficiently explain how he achieved all he did there IMO.

              Or how he's managed to achieve their success in his absence. Sorcery I tell thee!

                Or rather Nigel Clough continuing the good work and build on the foundations?

                  Just as Jimmy is continuing the good work of Chris! All is correct with the universe now.

                    We very rarely lose, that's good thing.

                        Rarely do we win! Mediocrity is done with beckoning, we are already there.

                            I would say that we should look into signing Zach Clough if they go down but there's probably not much point as the QPR curse would no doubt inexplicably turn him to absolute dross
                            "Imagine a relationship that went wrong but you held on in there for years: that's what it is like supporting a football team. Your loyalty to a team can never die. Ties are stronger than they could ever be with a woman. If she goes and sleeps with your best mate, it's over. If the Rs' boss, Ian Holloway, slept with my best mate, QPR would still be my team. Even if many of the things that you loved about going to matches have gone - terraces, team shirts without sponsors and being able to smoke at grounds - you still stick with your team." - Peter Doherty.

                              Prem clubs are watching Clough.
