I'd also like to say that while personality should always come a long way behind performance when it comes to the managerial wishlist, I'm pleased we've got an all-round good bloke on board.
With Pulis out the running and greenhorn Jones just too risky considering our precarious situation, Hughton has to be the best AVAILABLE. Available being the key word here. We were never going to attract the very best out there, were we?
