If he's that good, how come he failed miserably at Forest with a good squad and was also sacked by Brighton, Birmingham and Newcastle for strings of poor performances and results.
He managed to keep a team in the Premier League for two seasons - something that Sir Neil has never managed. Check with your relatives in Yorkshire!
As I said. Four years ago. Means nothing now. Recent record is poor.
In any event, if you want to go back, McCarthy kept Wolves in the Prem for two consecutive seasons from 2009/2011, having got them promotion the year before. That compares favourably with Hughton and we know how much you adore MM !
