Chairman Peter Coates said: “Paul greatly impressed us with his knowledge of our squad and had a clear plan of how he would improve our results.' Didn't Hughes impress with HIS knowledge of the squad? Doesn't everyone that's watched us struggle all season have a good knowledge of the squad? Wish I'd been interviews now if knowledge of the squad is all that is needed. Don't want to knock Lambert before he takes his place in Hughes chair yet, but i must say that I am underwhelmed by his appointment.

No, Hughes didn't know about our squad. He expressed surprise at how good the players were after a few weeks.

Like I said last week Peter Coates needs to do a test and see if he can count backwards from 100 in 7’s.

We'll assume we had a shortlist of 3 (GR, QSF and MON) who were interviewed and, in order, turned us down for whatever reason. You then go on to interview the next on the list (4th PL). Presumably, he was impressed with him during and after his interview. He didn't make him 4th choice AFTER his interview!!

I'm sure that two days on Wikipedia would have provided the info on our players.
I think I should have applied

A Stokie since 1960 myself. Always will be. Will back the new manager like many true Stokies - 'Every step along the way' - not just til I don't like a new manager!

I knew a number of Stokies who packed up when Pulis was appointed the first time. Never did return, too pigheaded. Missed some great years. The club didn't miss them.

Hughes knew the squad in the sense that he'd met them, though I'm not sure they'd all been introduced to each other. But he had little idea how to use them on the pitch.
