    We will get a better idea of how good he is when we are 2-0 down and need a plan b or on a run of a couple of defeats. Then we will see what he is made of.

    I presume his remit is to motivate the team to win games and he seems pretty good at this so far. WS had such promise when he arrived and look how that panned out.
    You don't always need a impressive CV to succeed.

    I'm not even joking when I say thats where I'm at. Nothing against Tonda as a person but this club has an enormous amount to make up to the fans.

    I can't see us being in that situation for the rest of the season to be honest.

    Hey, I have no idea how good Tonda is or how good he could be.

    Appoint him or bring in a more experienced manager. Who knows?

    Whatever happens from here, I have great respect for the man. After the Preston game we were at our lowest point. Booed off the pitch, players falling out with supporters, on a losing streak, playing poorly and in a relegation fight.

    Tonda comes in and within 4 days picks the players up to win at QPR. Somehow getting some spirit out of our sorry lot. You can see the confidence shining through in the performances since then.

    So it's not just that he has won 3 games in a row but we are a team now, which up to 1 November never really looked possible.
