Disagree, think he is a great manager. He has turned arround every club he has managed as far as I can recall (Newcastle, Birmingham, Norwich and now Brighton) Newcastle sacked him for finishing 12th in their first year back in Prem. Wounder if they will do the same if Rafa finishes 12th next year?? The only thing that annoys me about Houghton is his interviews are very cliche. Not a biggie but in a world of media friendly managers he lacks charisma. But I rate him highly.
He got sacked at Norwich too - as good as relegated them tbh.
Always liked him, don't get me wrong. Only genuine talent out of the sea of "give black managers a chance" cliché (Powell, Ince etc.)
