Chris Hughton is the most successful Championship manager

[Buzzer]

An average of 1.84 points a game over 175 games. That's quite some achievement.

Yeah but that's by playing dull old fashioned football

Not surprising. He's had one Championship winning season at Newcastle, a play off season at Birmingham and almost two seasons with us and two thirds of that time, we've been top three form.

Just goes to show what a great choice he was for the job and what a great job he has done for us. We've gone from a very poor team who were lucky to stay up to seven defeats in 61 league games. What a turn around from two seasons ago!

And it's a false position because he hasn't played any decent teams yet and been lucky with injuries.

But how many of those points have been won from penalties? If you took penalties away I doubt he'd be up there.

So only taking into account the last 13 seasons. Do you work for Sky?

I'm surprised Holloway isn't on that chart as he got Blackpool and Palace promoted.

Definitely not! I did it as far back as I could with that website filter.

Holloway is on page 2 at 46 with 1.35 points a game over 367 games, Pardew is at 42 with 1.42 points over 110 games.

I wonder when Ipswich will change their manager.

Now in their 13th consecutive season in the Championship and under McCarthy since November 2012 have finished once in the play-offs in 2014-15.

Holloway took over a Palace team that was second in the table and eventually just scraped into the play offs. His record over the course of a whole season would have had them mid table.

Slightly OT but seeing Steve Coppell up there he is managing in India And looking at their players on wiki they include Michael Chopra, Steven Bywater and Peter Ramage unless any have left and wiki hasnt kept up
