Also worth mentioning I found his comments about his departure from Plymouth interesting. Basically saying the fans don’t and can’t know the real reason for his sacking due to a non disclosure agreement and that they give him grief without knowing the full story. He didn’t get the sack at Argyle he left to manage Milan Milandric’s Leicester just days after telling fans that he bled green and white and went to bed in green and white pyjamas and was not a shred of truth in him going to Leicester and wasn’t interested in leaving. The Green Army have called him Hollowords ever since. He likes to tell fans everywhere he manages that he’s the no 1 fan, makes me wonder how Gas he really is.

I don't know the inside story re Plymouth, although even then Leicester were a club with greater potential than Plymouth. Wuth respect though, the last comment is nonsense. He grew up a Gashead and served the club with distinction. Professionally, he, like any other manager, has to do everything he can to achieve the best for the club that employs him at any given time. Sometimes that might mean displays of affection for that club. That doesn't remove the fact that he is a Rovers fan.

He definitely did the dirty deed to Plymouth. I remember his pledges of loyalty, followed a few days later by his appointment at Leicester.
Similar to DC and Leeds, except DC chose to stay.
However, I don't blame any football manager for hopping between clubs. They are even more vulnerable than players, and are often sacked within a few weeks of a poor start to the season.
Two promotions to the Premier League prove to me that he was a manager of some quality. Very few have ever done that.
I think he has now reached his best before date, as all managers eventually do when they get burned out by the sheer unrelenting pressure, somewhere between their mid forties and occasionally the late sixties.
