Before Man City, Hughes managed Blackburn, why would you think we are too small for him? Who else is giving him a job - not the SKY 4, not Spurs, Villa, Everton, Sundeland, Brum, Stoke or Fulham either. Obviously not Man City or Blackburn.
So in the premiership, that leaves Wigan, Hull, Pompey, Wolves, Burnley, West Ham and little old Bolton.
So why not?
