Iv looked .
Sacked after a very short period with results not the worst in the world.
At Watford Every manager ends up getting sacked, and altho not great had them 9th nowhere near relegation. But accepted the players he had should have done better
West Brom 7 months after an exceptional season at Barnsley, when sacked they were in poor form but he wasn't given a chance to turn things round. They were still fifth ,only 8 points behind 2nd. They finished the season 10th so their replacement didn't make things better.
The expectations at both those clubs was to at a minimum finish in the top 6 ,but pressure was on even to finish in the top 2.
At Barnsley he did excellent, I watched a number of their games that season and they were very good.
He has never had a team in this country anywhere near relegation places.
I would have much preferred the club had splashed the cash and brought in more of a name and better record on a short term appointment and really make a statement that we believed promotion was a possibility.
But I don't think this is a bad appointment, not as much pressure or expectation similar to Barnsley .
I still think we ain't the only club that would have considered hiring him.If clubs like Cardiff, Sheff Wednesday even maybe the likes of Hull and a couple of others I think he would be a name in the frame.
