When the Wednesday and Preston fans unanimously agree he was the worst manager in both of their history's then I think it tells you that he is out of his depth at a Premier League club.

Why should we have to settle for someone who would be viewed as an awful appointment by most League 1 clubs?

To a certain extent I agree with you 1996; however JP & Co would obviously have done their homework on his past experiences, and must've been satisfied that he had since gained enough experience to be able to turn those mediocre records round. Obviously they'd also have been influenced by the fact that he'd be cheaper to employ than the likes of Moyes and (probably) Sherwood too, I'll grant you but I don't believe that JP would've appointed him just on his previous record - he wouldn't have given him the job and just crossed his fingers!

I really think that in flashes this season - and even during yesterday's game that has been slated by nearly all - we have been very fluid and comfortable in possession in the 60% midfield area, and this either isn't being recognised or is being forgotten by a lot of people when we lose games. Admittedly we haven't been able to be consistent in our performances in this way but IMO we have looked better in defence than we have since Roy was HC, and the midfield has too, with the limitations mentioned above. I agree we need to line up differently and just be more positive, but still think that AI hasn't yet proved that he's out of his depth.

Oh, and welcome baggietrousers.....it's good to have different opinions aired on here and as far as I'm concerned they're all debated in a pretty civilised way. That's the important thing
