i will look back it at it fondly to be honest
on the pitch he over-performed under financial constraints
felt like the club were galvanised after the Jewell and Keane eras
it ended poorly though with a flounce and barbed comments
i also got two season tickets at our lowest ebb in about 2013 and that has proven to be a great purchase for my son and i [Post edited 7 May 14:31]

The thing I liked about MM was the fact he wasn't Roy Keane, beyond that I struggled. |  |

Under-valued at the time, and was used as a smokescreen to cover up how badly Evans was running the club. Had he stayed, given the chance, we would have continued to tread water in the Championship, doing well enough to stay up but a lack of funding meaning not good enough to challenge the top six. But then tension from the crowd would have probably created an air of unmanageable toxicity - if it hadn't already.
I was there at the Barnsley game, and the atmosphere was horrible. Probably worse than anything under Lambert, which is shocking all things considered. I guess in hindsight I regret the fans, including myself, couldn't bury the hatchet and support Mick/the players after he announced his departure at the end of the season. He deserved a proper thank you for his work, rather than leaving the way he did. |  |
