Hodgson took over in Janaury, Steve Bruce was much earlier... and for sure Wigan has a better team than Fulham.Well he didn't get his team safe as quick as Steve Bruce, so no. Not to mention Gareth Southgate who did a brilliant job after having his strikeforce sold off at the start of the season, and his best defender sold off half way through the season. He's obviously a quality coach though.
