There was a lot of hatred and venom when he dumped them to become a number two. Now he’s been sacked twice and crawled back… it’s gonna take some doing to win a lot of them back over I think.
Didn’t realise that. Although upset he was leaving I thought they were pleased for him getting a big gig at Villa.

I had a quick look at their forums at the time and it was as Dogtanian said, they were incredulous and very very angry when he came here.
I think most people were surprised someone would give up a managers job in the 2nd tier to come here and be assistant, but with hindsight he was coming to be pretty much manager as his boss clearly didn't have a fucking clue, and on the evidence we saw, neither did he.
Can't believe we paid £1.2m in compensation to bring this guy in. He showed he's no Michael Beale.
