Me too largely due to the fact that a couple of seasons ago his team selections, tactics, substitutions and after match interviews seemed somewhat indecipherable. Still cannot put my finger on it but midway through last season everything seemed to click but not only that players like Craig Woodman (one of the rightful criticisms of PT being that he seemed to play him regardless of performance levels) suddenly showed that he was more than a decent player after all.
I guess much of our new found faith in PT stems from how the team is currently playing but in fairness to him his skills as a team builder are now beginning to show through. It is clear that he and let's also give SP some credit for his contribution also, certainly does not sign players purely on how well they can kick a ball about but on their character, having a few more brain cells than the average footballer and yes being "proper chaps" and that we are now starting to see the benefits of this.
