For me there's no stand-out Head Coach among that list of WBA Prem Managers:
Megson and Mowbray were great Championship candidates - but not Prem (and that's not their fault - more the fault of circumstances - ie they 'managed' Clubs who were building foundations).
It's easy to vote for Hodgson but am I being influenced by his 40 year record with other Teams?
If Pulis continues to listen to the Club and fans, he could turn into a bit of a legend (although I'd have placed him behind Mel and Irvine a few months ago, despite his achievement in keeping us up 2 years ago.)
Steve Clarke seemed to be the answer, but somehow lost the plot. And Pop amazingly kept us up, but then brought in some poor signings when he was trusted with the transfer kitty.
I can't make my mind up, but rather than passing on a good debate, I'm voting for.....erm, errr,
Mowbray for the brand of football he had us playing, which (to me) was (fractionally) more important than the results. I might change my mind in 5 minutes time, though.
