Well this is absolute bollocks.
Portsmouth were in administration when he managed then - anyone with a brain knows that an incredibly difficult thing to manage, when your players aren't even being paid, it is hard to motivate. The club wanted him to stay.
Blackpool he resigned after a couple of months where he did fine, again Blackpool was a basket case of a club as has been shown in the years since he was there.
Blackburn again he was there for 5 minutes, awful owners.
He did a great job at Oxford. Got to the EFL trophy final twice, got promoted and almost got them in the league one play offs
