He did well in his first season but his formula seems to have dissolved so I suppose it was inevitable he would be fired for their current position, 20th of 24.
He's probably an OK manager - seemed OK everywhere until fired by Wigan in fairness, but then fired by MC from us.
After taking over Fleetwood and getting them to the playoff positions, Norwich wanted him but Fleetwood managed to keep him, only for him to lose the plot this season.

Football can be so capricious. Even Red Nose was being touted for the sack until Wilko saved his bacon by giving him Cantona, because Cantona is the one who, finding a new home at the theatre of scum, made it his business to save Fergie and win trophies.

Victim of his own success.

They had an amazing season last season.

I liked him when he was here, I think we'd have done a lot better if he'd stayed and not been replaced by a fat bloke in a sombrero.

He started things off at Brentford, got Wigan in the top 6 and has now ended up getting the sack at Fleetwood.
