Who then went on to do very very well for a while, in the face of an initial shit storm of criticism for not being a big name.
Very true. Won 7 of his first 9 games. Only lost twice, both times at home to Bolton and Barnsley.
All started to go a bit wrong when he started believing his own hype though
Going totally off topic, but I thought that Barnsley game was a 0 0 draw? Just remember shot after shot some how not going in.
Barnsley won 1-0, remember it vividly as my year head at the time supported them and ripped the piss for a good while only for them to get relegated!!!
