It is a bit of a strange appointment given how he did at Oldham. You never know though, sometimes managers randomly do well at some clubs. Can't see Donny staying up though.

Michael Appleton was thought to be favourite. Maybe his loyalty to the cause was in question.

Appleton gets mentioned for all Championship jobs but he still has no record anywhere as a manager.

Bottom of the league next season

A guy who couldn't progress an established league one club above the relegation zone gets a job for a club new boys in a higher division.

I always find it bizarre where failed managers leave a club and somehow get a better job.

He is very highly rated as a coach. Obviously doesn't always mean anything when trying to be a manager.

As does 'scouse chops' Robinson at MK Dons. Never done owt with them other than mediocrity but seems to be linked with every Championship job going.

Aye, like Brian Kidd and Paul Hart for example.

Very highly rated coaches at one time - but didnt really succeed to any great degree at management level.

Club in our division appoints crap manager. I like it.
