One difference being Wakey that Clark hadn't managed anyone at that point. He was learning on the job.
Dortmund II got relegated last season playing front foot attacking football. OK German second clubs cant get higher than the division they were in, meaning players move on for success if you dont get into the first team squad, but he's really no more succesful than most UK lower league coaches that have had teams promoted in the past.
Newcastle, West Ham, WBA to some extent got relegated from the Prem doing the same. If losing 4-3 is as acceptable as winning 4-3 every week, and I still expect us to lose more than we win for this season at least, then crack on Mr. Hoyle. It will be interesting to hear what you have to say if we are in the bottom 3 at Easter but scoring goals and still unable to defend. I hope we aren't, but we could be. A balance is required.
Better football than we were playing is easy to ask for. There's another manager and his squad that we have to play against each week who will only let you do that up to a point. Plus it only works successfully if you've someone upfront that knows where the onion bag is.
I hope Hoyle has been working on this for a few months. His comment before setting on Powell was that he would be patient and wait for the right man. Powell was identified in less than a week. It took a month or so before it was all settled but that was typical of Dean Hoyle being patient. Setting this guy on a day after Powell was shown the door makes you think what was going around the club last week.
I wish him well. I've supported Town for donkeys and I still will do when Hoyle and Wagner are gone.
Rant over, 3 pts please Mr. Lillis.
