Mystifyingly brought in as assistant manager to the struggling Sherwood, and when the inevitable happened was wheeled out again (despite his first uninspiring and at times embarrassing spell). True to form he lost, albeit with a team that seem to be on a defeat bonus. Quickly shipped out only to be brought back to the club months later. Teflon.
