That's true. I think many are making the point on this and other threads that our current style of play and management are more suited for the Premier league than the Championship. It may have seemed cruel at the time, but what Southampton did was probably the blueprint...do you think Pochettino...
and lets look at some of the managers that have taken teams up in the past 5 years:
Mackay
Holloway (twice ffs)
Allardyce
Bruce
Lambert
Warnock
Coyle
McLeish
McCarthy
and how many on here would turn their noses up at most on these lists??? We need a certain style and management team to get out...
