Think you forgot about the Lambert appointment!!!! Hughes would of kept us up, just!!!! That in itself was an absolute cluster fuck of an appointment, a desperation appointment as LMHs position was untenable and the fact that at least 3 managers (Rowett, Quique and Martin O Neill) had turned us down!! Even if we had somehow scraped survival, and I don't think we would have - don't think we would have come back from the Coventry loss anyway, we would have, barring a miracle, gone down as the laughing stock of the division! We should have sacked at the end of 16-17 or, at the very, very latest after Bournemouth and bought Moyes in - he went in at West Ham who were in a similar position that we were at the time, and look where they are now - heck, they moan about him as they are not secure in top 4!! Based on the Board's track record post-Hughes I have to say their managerial recruitment policy has been sadly lacking. Would a head of football be wiser than expecting the Coates family to make a decision in isolation? (Though logic dictates they took advice on the post-Hughes appointments one would hope)

The majority on here were anti Moyes when he was suggested. The issues lie deeper than the manager. We're set up to fail.

It would be an interesting appointment, I'll say that much. Has he ever managed a Championship side? I'm pretty sure that's a no. He might turn up and get rid of our best defender of course, and I'm not sure his links with Barcelona would mean much for a tier 2 team but... Of course it's never going to happen though... however saying that Now that Ince is back never say never!

We missed a trick not getting Bruce when he was available. Not sure being host of Play your cards right was ample qualification for the job but still would have done a better job than Jones
