Really? Crazy to think we’d have pulled the trigger so soon after promotion… especially given Peace had only got the chairman’s job because he’d sided with Gary vs Paul Thompson?
I remember watching Jeff And The Boys on SkySportShite, that afternoon.

Tony Cottee was at the ground reporting. After 18 minutes, he was grinning that much I though the top of his head was going to fall off. Come full time, however, he looked like someone had just told him his dog had died.

Afraid so - this was the Autumn after the first relegation of course - 03/04.  

Such was the toxic relationship between Manager and Chairman

Wasn't Mark Hughes lined up to take over had we lost?

Didn’t we try again for Hughes when we went for Barney, or was he already at Blackburn then?
Rumours we were appointing Hughes used to surface regularly, as I remember.
Glad we didn't appoint Hughes, only guy that made me sympathetic towards Tony Pulis.
