he's a fair bit ahead of your manager though in terms of experience, winning stuff etc

Fair bit behind him in managing a club in the Old Firm experience though

Bigger more successful men than Houghton have come up here and failed badly. That's not to say he wouldn't do well it just not an appointment that would worry me, you not being excited by it can probably understand that

He's got a waft of the Tony Mowbray about him.

Not for me - decent manager, I want better than that....has been on a dreadful run in the league but still surprised they let him go. Wee diddy team with unrealistic expectations.....plenty of them down there

Would he be any different to the likes of Roberto Martinez otr even Lennon?

Solid manager as has been said but nothing special.

Unfair.

Lennon took a team out of the Championship in a different direction that Houghton

He got Newcastle, Norwich and Brighton promoted from the EFL. Brighton look for ward to their third year in the EPL thanks to him. Outstanding CV.

Not the outstanding name when you look at it on the face of it however he is just the personality to do a great job

Calm, composed, tactically minded, player developer, knows the market for spotting a player. I wouldn't be against it. It isn't the headline name we'd hope for but the point about on a par with Martinez is a fair one and I'd like to see us pursue it

Wouldn't get me lathered up....
