In all fairness, Huddersfield finished 3rd last year nearly thirty points ahead of us. Although some players were sold, they still had the core of a decent side, so Warnock didn't suddenly turn them into world beaters. He did though give them the belief that they could perform better than they had under their previous manager, which they duly did.



Neil Warnock actually did an amazing job once again and beat many top sides to stay up, finishing 4pts clear of Lamouchi with 3 less games in charge.

Huddersfield were 6pts from safety, Cardiff had a 6pt cushion.

Two of Huddersfield's best players were sold to Forest in the Prem for £10mill.

Huddersfield looked down and out, where as Cardiff were never in the bottom 3.

Warnock came in had 15 matches W7 D4 L4

9 of those 15 games were v Top 10 ten where he beat quite a few, Lamouchi never beat one top 10 ten team.

Huddersfield also never relied on Reading losing 6pts where as Cardiff did.
2nd from bottom and 6pts off safety


Reading minus 6pts

Wigan minus 3pts

All I would say is this. McCarthy, Morrison and Hudson were all given the job based on a good run of a couple of games. But then once appointed full time things went down hill. Just because Sabri has had some
Good results does that mean he’s definitely the right person for the job. Personally I think he’s got the pedigree and experience of a championship manager and may be the best option out there at the moment. But I hope we’ve Learnt to look far and wide and take time to get the best manager long term, not based on a good couple of wins

Although we will never know for sure, even with Warnock in charge of us do you believe we would have had enough ability to have beaten 9 of the top 10 teams. I don't, which strengthens my belief that Huddersfield were not as bad as their position indicated when he took over. Having said that I agree that Warnock would still have got more points on the board for us than Lamouchi.

For the record I think that Warnock is a fantastic manager and part of me still wishes he was still with us. Looking further ahead, I think we have to give Lamouchi a chance because we cannot put up with the managerial instability that's been so evident recently.
